Himself - Presenter:
There's an old Chinese proverb, by this Mao fellow, that says a toad in a well only gets to see some of the sky. And if the toad came up, he'd see more of the world. Which, you know, is a bit like me in a way. I've seen more of the world just from doing this. I don't know if it's made me a better person or not, but he's saying it is. He's saying that if you get out of the well and see the bigger picture, it's good for you. But I say it isn't. And the thing is, it's not even worth getting out to see more sky, 'cause of all the pollution. And definitely, if you're a toad, I wouldn't get out of it any old way, 'cause they'll grab you and cut your head off and they'll eat you.
