In the early Eighties I was travelling on a train with an American friend of mine, and as I was looking out of the window, he said to me, 'Paul, what are you looking for?', and I just said, 'I'm looking for a rabbit, because if I see a rabbit then my collection will be successful'.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/art-and-architecture/features/i-love-lego-celebrating-50-years-of-the-tiny-building-blocks-773703.html">Right Said Fred</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/art-and-architecture/features/i-love-lego-celebrating-50-years-of-the-tiny-building-blocks-773703.html">My brother and I knew straight away that we wanted to make a guitar out of our Lego, but it was trickier than we thought because there are no curved pieces</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/art-and-architecture/features/i-love-lego-celebrating-50-years-of-the-tiny-building-blocks-773703.html"><div align="center"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.independent.co.uk/img/4774877B-B7A6-436F-AD27-F4804CF5B481" alt="undefined" /></div></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/AE304316-A55F-4948-BB4B-7A88746E59B6/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
