“I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will ...” — Winston Churchill Quote

“I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly.”

“I like a man who grins when he fights.”

“India is a geographical term. It is no more a united nation than the Equator.”

“What really irks me is the snide victimizing suggestion from some that I have tried to be lighthearted and funny... Oh my God - this is so offensive.”

“People often can't separate, or can't understand, that to be funny is to be serious; it's a way of pulling people in and not scaring them off. I think a lot of the funny stuff, underneath it, there's a deep anxiety going on.”

“I have a funny relationship to the British working class movement... I'm in it, but not culturally of it... I was aware that I'd come from the periphery of this process. I was reluctant to go canvassing for the Labour party. I don't find it easy to say, straight, face to face with an English working class family: 'Are you going to vote for us?'”
