“Simon is in his second season with us, helping with the forwards, and Neil has been helping with his goal kicking expertise. But, with Dai away in Australia, Neil is now expanding his role with the backs and it is great to have in the environment - he is a legend and the boys love having him around.”

“Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.”
Neil Gaiman
“Being from the South, there isn't really a lot of great theater. You get musicals and Neil Simon plays-not that they're bad, but you can only take so much.”
Wes Bentley
“It's Neil [Simon]'s best writing, because it was about his brother,”
Danny Simon
“I am surprised nothing has been made of the fact that astronaut Neil Armstrong carried no sidearms when he landed on the moon”

“I don't worry about it, ... I just worked with Neil Jordan on 'Breakfast On Pluto,' where I play an Irish transvestite singer in a London cabaret.'”
Cillian Murphy
“I wanted two solid months of Neil Young, but he told me it was, quote, 'getting creepy,' ”
