 an incomparable body of work |
| Britain has lost one of its greatest comic artists, but he lives on in an incomparable body of work. |
| Even if it sounds pretentious, which it isn't-I've found it artistically challenging to produce a monologue that is filled with laughter and ideas. It's a tough thing to pull off, but satire is better if it has conviction behind it. |
| He lives on in an incomparable body of work which will continue to bring joy to millions. |
| I try hard not to preach, but I get carried away, which is a mistake, but it's a risk worth running. |
| I'm easy to work with, not a pushover, but I respond to criticism and find it inspiring. |
| If only the strength of the love that people feel when it is reciprocated could be as intense and obsessive as the love we feel when it is not; then marriages would be truly made in heaven. |
| Most of my stand-up comedy is about being a small, scared, neurotic individual among the billions of other small, scared, neurotic individuals that make up the mass which is us. I always think the first target of a stand-up comic should be themselves-we all share our weaknesses, and it's fun to use them as a source of comedy. |
| Most of my work isn't directly autobiographical. It tends to be an amalgam of things I've seen and heard and thought and conversations I've had. |
| My advice to anyone adapting a novel is that once they've read it and learnt to understand it, then they must throw it away and never look at it again! |
| No collection of people who are all waiting for the same thing are capable of holding a natural conversation. Even if the thing they are waiting for is only a taxi. |
| People who get through life dependent on other people's possessions are always the first to lecture you on how little possessions count. |
| Queen's music is uniquely theatrical. I had this vision where The Matrix meets the Arthurian legend meets Terminator 2. |
| Rod is such a unique artist. I initially approached him about a musical because his songs are all about story-telling and I felt that a great story could grow from them. |
| Sympathy for victims is always counter-balanced by an equal and opposite feeling of resentment towards them. |
