More quotes by Alexei Sayle
People aren't universally heroic.
Alexei Sayle
If you travel to the States... they have a lot of different words than like what we use. For instance: they say 'elevator', we say 'lift' they say 'drapes', we say 'curtains' they say 'president', we say 'seriously deranged git.'
Alexei Sayle
Most of my friends are women - I quite fancied being a woman in a way.
Alexei Sayle
A lot of those comics can't hold down relationships and they've got no other life apart from performing. They sleep in their Jags and a lot of them can't even talk. All they can do is tell gags.
Alexei Sayle
The optimum frequency with which comedians should do a series is every year. I do one every three years. My audience is literally dying off.
Alexei Sayle
For me, the showbiz memoir is uninteresting - you want to tell people something they don't know about.
Alexei Sayle
I always thought communism was crap, really.
Alexei Sayle
You can't do comedy with a beard.
Alexei Sayle
However, my problems with my memory are further complicated by the fact that while I don't have any recollection of things I have actually done, I have very vivid recollections of loads of things that I haven't done.
Alexei Sayle
If someone starts agreeing with me, I don't like it. Out of pique, I become something else.
Alexei Sayle
Now, as a comic, if you're vaguely amusing you can go straight into TV, then you play the O2 and then everyone's sick of you.
Alexei Sayle
I feel sorry for many politicians we expect them to be completely consistent and moralised when we're not.
Alexei Sayle
Israel is the Jimmy Saville of nation states.
Alexei Sayle
I like the south of Spain, notably for the Moorish influence and the weather.
Alexei Sayle
Everyone I used to work with is still alive and can afford expensive lawyers.
Alexei Sayle
It always seemed to be a constant that my parents were political.
Alexei Sayle
I think that my ideas of the world are that it's random and cruel but kind of quite comical really, and therefore the humour, in a sense, springs from that.
Alexei Sayle
I suppose the common idea of me is that I'm going to be someone who's hyper and cracking jokes all the time, but people who meet me are soon disabused of that notion.
Alexei Sayle
I did six series for the BBC and that was enough. I've been writing for ten years, which is more challenging artistically.
Alexei Sayle
I've been going to Granada for many years and 12 years ago bought a house a few miles outside the city.
