My greatest fear is speaking in public.
I've never really sought out publicity.
I'm not that kind of publicity, attention-grabber type of artist.
I pretty much grew up in public.
We have seen enough criminality on the part of government. It is hypocritical to make this allegation against me. They have narrowed the public sphere of influence.
I do feel a certain love from the British public.
I hate publicists and publicity. But I love the people.
Books and harlots have their quarrels in public.
