Bill Forsyth

Perhaps naively I thought people understand what humor was, that it was invented by the human race to cope with the dark areas of life, problems and terrors.

At the moment, my mother is the only one left in Glasgow, although it's certainly my home.

I went to the Glasgow Youth Theatre and they just let me in. But I was so shy that I was there for about six weeks without actually introducing myself.

I don't like to get in front of people.

I would've done anything to work with Satyajit Ray.

I'm sensitive and get easily upset and insulted.
