I'm very proud to be British, and my brand is British.
We do recognise that there are areas where the current financial services market, the banking market, just isn't working for chunks of the British economy.
It's certainly true that I was brought up in that British amateur tradition, the one which always held that if you were reasonably good at cricket, knew one or two Latin texts and a few zingy Oscar Wilde quotes for dinner parties, you were pretty much ready to go and run some outpost in Hindustan.
I'll always see myself as a British filmmaker, powerfully so.
The fact that it's hard to create an original British musical doesn't mean you shouldn't try.
It is absolutely bedrock to the British Army's philosophy that a commanding officer is responsible for what goes on within his command.
I like everything European. Even my GPS has a British accent - it's way less annoying than the American one.
Americans like the British kind of quirkiness and the strange accent. They find it kind of cute or something, with a certain charm.
A lot of British actors will look at America as such a land of opportunity. In England, there's such a small pool of working actors of color. There's such a small amount of work that is actually produced in the first place.
I don't tend to watch too many American comedies. I love British comedy.
That was after Napoleon died because there is still a controversy as to whether Napoleon was poisoned with arsenic. And the French say the British did it and the British say the French did it, but he died before the test for arsenic was available.
In dealing with the China problem, the British and American side, which had particularly strong interests in China, should have based its judgments about the origins of the problem on direct observation of the actual circumstances at the time.
It is no longer acceptable in British politics to be fat or eccentric or religious.
A lot of my male vocal influences are British - people like David Bowie, Freddie Mercury and Robert Plant.
I would sooner play in a good British picture than in the majority of American pictures I have seen.
When Joan D' Arc was asked by her judges why as a Christian she did not love the British, she answered that she did love them, but she loved British in their country. In the same way, we do not hate the Turks, we love them, but in their country.
When my father arrived in Kenya, he had found the Kikuyu way of life similar to that of the British at the time the Romans invaded England 2,000 years ago.
Each section of the British Isles has its own way of laughing, except Wales, which doesn't.
In the Fall of 1774 & Winter of 1775, I was one of upwards of thirty, chiefly mechanics, who formed ourselves into a committee for the purpose of watching the movements of the British soldiers, and gaining every intelligence of the movements of the Tories.
Traditional British desserts with lots of custard are my biggest weakness - I particularly love the puds at St. John restaurant in East London.
Once, when a British Prime Minister sneezed, men half a world away would blow their noses. Now when a British Prime Minister sneezes nobody else will even say 'Bless You'.
Blair... is accusing us of executing British soldiers. We want to tell him that we have not executed anybody. They are either killed in battle, most of them get killed because they are cowards anyway, the rest they just get captured.
If I'm in a gathering of filmmakers, I'm first and foremost a British Indian; if I'm in a gathering of British Indians, I'm a woman director. There are so many sides to who I am that I change all the time.
This most dangerous enemy is the American counterpart of the British Fabian Socialist, who denies that he is a Socialist and operates behind a mask which he calls National Planning.
It turns out that understanding the British public is not rocket science. The British appreciate honesty and they also have a bonkers, off-the-wall sense of humour like me.
It had always been a British preoccupation to hold this mile record.
I'm so excited to be working on 'Doctor Who,' as it's such a big and important part of British culture.
Like the British Constitution, she owes her success in practice to her inconsistencies in principle.
With most British actors, it's amazing. I think they start with the character on the outside and work in.
So-called reality TV, which dominates British channels, is destroying what made it cherishable to me and lots of others in the first place. I loved Alan Clarke, Ken Loach and Alan Bleasdale's work. In fact the first TV dramas I ever saw were 'Screen Twos' produced by David Thompson, who also produced a lot of Alan Clarke.
British aren't really known for their physical loveliness but firemen, generally speaking, are gorgeous.
First concert I saw was a British boy band called Take That when I was 14 or 15. I went with nine girls from school.
My dad always had huge respect for the British Army. He always thought it was one of the best. And I think it changed his life - those seven years in that Army.
Lehi was not a part of the Zionist movement, not a part of the Revisionist Party. It was sometimes something apart, and Lord Moyne was the highest British official in the Middle East... and because we fought against the British in this area, we took him for a target.
I don't enjoy British shows as a rule because British audiences are strange.
The British health care system is a blueprint for the failure of Obamacare, as it is structured.
