Last night the sad news broke that the wonderful Richard Attenborough had passed away at the age of 90. The legendary film director was just five days short of his 91st birthday.
Attenborough was one of the greats, a passionate humanitarian, a wonderful director and arguably the most loved Santa Claus to grace the silver screen. His projects were beloved by many and were only overshadowed by the love for the man himself.
If you are taking a look back at the career of Attenborough, it is entirely worth checking out his performance in The Great Escape, Jurassic Park and Brighton Rock. For his directorial work, you can't go wrong with the brilliant Gandhi, Cry Freedom and Shadowlands.
Attenborough was one of our very favourites, here are eleven of his finest quotes.
