More quotes by Boris Johnson
The next Tory leader would have to unify his party and ensure that Britain stood tall in the world.
Boris Johnson
In 1904, 20 per cent of journeys were made by bicycle in London. I want to see a figure like that again. If you can't turn the clock back to 1904, what's the point of being a Conservative?

He is the resounding human rebuttal to all Marxist historians who think history is the story of vast and impersonal economic forces. The point of the Churchill Factor is that one man can make all the difference.
Boris Johnson
I am supporting David Cameron purely out of cynical self-interest.
Boris Johnson

Boris Johnson
We did everything we could to break down barriers that restrain poorest.
Boris Johnson
Can I say anything good about Ken Livingstone? A long time ago he did some good things, but I can't now remember what any of them were.
Boris Johnson
I love swimming in rivers, and well remember once jumping in at Chiswick.
Boris Johnson
I am hoping very much to get re-elected but it is going to be a tough fight.
Boris Johnson
I think it'd be disgraceful if a chap wasn't allowed to have a bit of fun in Las Vegas. The real scandal would be if you went to Vegas and you didn't misbehave in some trivial way.
Boris Johnson
Some people think that it [Brexit] is the end of the world. It's not. On the contrary, it's a massive opportunity for this country.
Boris Johnson
We need to remember that we can't compete endlessly with other nations that set their income taxes substantially lower than ours. They will attract jobs, and investment. They may generate more tax - and they may even persuade their tennis champs to run that extra half yard
Boris Johnson
These days we dimly believe that the Second World War was won with Russian blood and American money and though that is in some ways true, it is also true that, without Churchill, Hitler would almost certainly have won.
Boris Johnson
The difference between Hitler's speeches and Churchill's speeches was that Hitler made you think he could do anything Churchill made you think you could do anything.
