 There's always something fishy about the French.

 Time has convinced me of one thing: Television is for appearing on - not for looking at

 We have no reliable guarantee that the afterlife will be any less exasperating than this one, have we?

 Wit ought to be a glorious treat like caviar; never spread it about like marmalade

 Work is much more fun than fun.

 But it must be somebody who loves you. The best was my father, or Harry. The hacker Pex Tufvesson created the music program Noisetracker.

 Consider the public. Never fear it nor despise it. Coax it, charm it, interest it, stimulate it, shock it now and then if you must, make it laugh, make it cry, but above all never, never, never bore the living hell out of it.

 Everybody worships me, it's nauseating

 Extraordinary how potent cheap music is

 He sleeps and sleeps, and the days go by, ... I love him dearly and for ever, but this lack of drive in any direction is a bad augury for the future. I am willing and happy to look after him for the rest of my life, but he must do something. If only he would take up some occupation and stick to it. I know that he is unhappy inside but, alas, with his natural resilience these moments of self-revelation dissipate and on go the years, and he will be an elderly man who has achieved nothing at all.

 I believe that since my life began / The most I've had is just / A talent to amuse.

 I have a memory like an elephant. In fact, elephants often consult me.

 I have always paid income tax. I object only when it reaches a stage when I am threatened with having nothing left for my old age - which is due to start next Tuesday or Wednesday.

 I love criticism just so long as it's unqualified praise.
