More quotes by Boris Johnson
I want you to know that I have nothing against Orlando, though you are, of course, far more likely to get shot or robbed there than in London.
Boris Johnson
Life isn't like coursework, baby. It's one damn essay crisis after another.
Boris Johnson
It is possible to have a pretty good life and career being a leech and a parasite in the media world, gadding about from TV studio to TV studio, writing inconsequential pieces and having a good time.

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?

I love tennis with a passion. I challenged Boris Becker to a match once and he said he was up for it but he never called back. I bet I could make him run around.
Boris Johnson
Do you seriously propose that they are going to be so insane as to allow tariffs to be imposed. The EU is, I'm afraid a job destroying engine. You can see it all across southern Europe, you can see it, alas, in our country.
Boris Johnson
My policy on cake is pro having it and pro eating it.
Boris Johnson

Boris Johnson

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
My chances of being PM are about as good as the chances of finding Elvis on Mars, or my being reincarnated as an olive.
Boris Johnson
I think it's absolutely amazing and how the Remain side have the cheek to come and tell us that we improve our security by staying in this organisation I do not understand.
Boris Johnson
I'm no communist.I'm a tax cutting Conservative. But I want a capitalism that is fairer to forgotten people.
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
Never in my life did I think I would be congratulated by Mick Jagger for achieving anything.
Boris Johnson
I'm afraid Sadiq Khan is completely wrong. The European Court of Justice is the supreme legal authority in our country.
