More quotes by Boris Johnson
Nothing excites compassion, in friend and foe alike, as much as the sight of you ker-splonked on the Tarmac with your propeller buried six feet under.
Boris Johnson
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
My speaking style was criticised by no less an authority than Arnold Schwarzenegger. It was a low moment, my friends, to have my rhetorical skills denounced by a monosyllabic Austrian cyborg.
Boris Johnson
When Cameron's Conservatives come to power it will be a golden age for cyclists and an Elysium of cycle lanes, bike racks, and sharia law for bike thieves. And I hope that cycling in London will become almost Chinese in its ubiquity.
Boris Johnson
London is a fantastic creator of jobs - but many of these jobs are going to people who don't originate in this country.
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?
Boris Johnson
Try as I might, I could not look at an overhead projection of a growth profit matrix and stay conscious.
Boris Johnson
Life isn't like coursework, baby. It's one damn essay crisis after another.
Boris Johnson
It is easy to make promises - it is hard work to keep them.
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
The volunteering spirit of Londoners is part of what makes this the best big city on earth.
Boris Johnson
When my father began his work in the 1970s it was a very different EU. I pay tribute to what he did. But it has now become a very different proposition: the United States of Europe.
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 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
I have not been more robust towards female rather than male assembly members and I do not believe I have been remotely sexist.
Boris Johnson
I am supporting David Cameron purely out of cynical self-interest.
Boris Johnson
My policy on cake is pro having it and pro eating it.
Boris Johnson
It hasn't taken them long, they began by telling us they would have a positive and patriotic case and they're back to project fear within minutes. There they go again they have nothing positive to say.
Boris Johnson
I cant remember what my line on drugs is. Whats my line on drugs?
Boris Johnson
I have as much chance of becoming Prime Minister as of being decapitated by a frisbee or of finding Elvis.
