“There is a lot of rubbish written about toilet humour”

People saying it is childish and pretending it is beneath them

We had so much fun in Ghana and they are really lovely people.

Who are always getting things wrong, are much more endearing than comedians who are sassy and smart.

They feel they have to look after their image.

You’re entering dangerous land when you start theorising about comedy.

We only have one agenda, which is to make ’em laugh their pants off.

Because we all fail – and I’m ready, I’ll take up carpentry.

I’m waiting for the time when I fail

On stage, we just want to generate hysteria. We don’t care about looking cool or posing.

Performers like Tommy Cooper

From the stage I’ve seen people of all ages absolutely roaring at really good toilet humour.

I remember once having to stop performing when I thought an elderly man a few rows back from the front was actually going to die because he was laughing so hard.

Unless they are girls, of course, when it is to make them laugh their bras off so we can get a quick look.

But there is no doubting the effectiveness of a really good willy gag.

Most modern comedy is crap.

A lot of people are obsessed with looking cool.

There can be no doubt that the average man blames much more than he praises. His instinct is to blame. If he is satisfied he says nothing; if he is not, he most illogically kicks up a row.

Can I doubt the shape of the earth? Can I judge a minute for lasting sixty seconds, a day for being grey or cold and leaves for falling from trees? Can I speak too loud when I am angry or stay quiet when I disagree? Can I forget about the norms and make some of my own?

Where there is peace and meditation, there is neither anxiety nor doubt.

That sure kind of love, where jealousy has no resting place, and doubt has no home.

If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too;!

Our biggest enemy is our own self-doubt. We really can achieve extraordinary things in our lives. But we sabotage our greatness because of our fear

There are doubtless certain unworldly people who are indifferent to money. I myself have never met one.

I make no manner of doubt that you threw a very diamond of truth at me, though you see it hit me so directly in the face that it wasn’t exactly appreciated, at first.
