I was born in Edinburgh, in Scotland, a few days after the end of the Second World War. Both my parents had left school at a very young age, unwillingly in my father's case.

Devin Townsend

I am no theologian. I am a layman. I am among those who are preached to, and who listen. It is not for me to preach.

I would willingly give fifty thousand crowns to be able to say that I took Paris without costing the life of one single man.

Money is not a motivating factor. Money doesn't thrill me or make me play better because there are benefits to being wealthy. I'm just happy with a ball at my feet. My motivation comes from playing the game I love. If I wasn't paid to be a professional footballer I would willingly play for nothing.
Love is an exploding cigar we willingly smoke.
We willingly enter fictional worlds where we cheer our heroes and cry for friends we never had.
