I never thought I want to do anything, really, except not go to work properly and turn up at the same place every day and eat sandwiches in the same canteen, if I can possibly help it, as I don't think I'd be very good at it.
I did throw a lot of eggs into one basket, as you do in your teenage years - 'I am buying these records, I am wearing this'. I did quite a bit of that. You have to do it, wear your stupid shoes, wear your stupid hair.
You cannot over estimate how infantile men are about sex! Men are people that have sex BECAUSE they have a headache... or are on fire, or have been shot in the head, or whatever it is!
Fruit... it's just God showing off. "Look at all the colours I know!"
And yet, people still turn to Jesus. You will notice though that the kind of people who turn to Jesus tend to be the sort of people who haven't done that well with everybody else.
I'd be hard-pressed to think of anybody who's made me laugh, who's funny, but who's also relentlessly positive.
If you're a comic, you don't have a rehearsal room, you rehearse on stage. My main concern is remembering everything.
I thought The Office was good, though I didn't think of it as a sitcom, just as a very good programme.
I don't go around thinking of myself as a great anything.
Don't you DARE use party as a verb in my shop
I was lucky in the sense that I was never blessed with an overly reflective nature.
It's true that I have spoken about doing a book before, but then everyone you speak to is planning to write a book.
I'm actually about as famous as a fourth division footballer from the 70s.
I'm a quitter. I come from a long line of quitters. It's amazing I'm here at all.
