Harold FordThere were a couple of girls shouting at me from the floor. At first I thought they fancied me but then I worked out they were shouting at me to miss. I don't really listen to women when they shout at me. If I was at home with the wife I'd just go to the bedroom and ignore her.

Samuel SmilesHaving lived in China for 4 years, working as an HR manager in a Chinese company,
