More quotes by Boris Johnson
Try as I might, I could not look at an overhead projection of a growth profit matrix and stay conscious.
Boris Johnson
Yes, cannabis is dangerous, but no more than other perfectly legal drugs. It's time for a rethink, and the Tory party - the funkiest, most jiving party on Earth - is where it's happening.
Boris Johnson
I'm afraid Sadiq Khan is completely wrong. The European Court of Justice is the supreme legal authority in our country.
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
But if people want to swim in the Thames, if they want to take their lives into their own hands, then they should be able to do so with all the freedom and exhilaration of our woad-painted ancestors.
Boris Johnson
I am supporting David Cameron purely out of cynical self-interest.
Boris Johnson

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
If we judged everybody by the stupid, unguarded things they blurt out to their nearest and dearest, then we wouldn't ever get anywhere.
Boris Johnson
The dreadful truth is that when people come to see their MP, they have run out of better ideas.
Boris Johnson
I am hoping very much to get re-elected but it is going to be a tough fight.
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
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
If gay marriage was OK ... then I saw no reason in principle why a union should not be consecrated between three men, as well as two men or indeed three men and a dog.
Boris Johnson
We celebrate the contribution of people who have come to this country to make it better.
Boris Johnson
London is the sporting capital of the world. I say to the Chinese and I say to the world, ping pong is coming home.
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
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
The Geiger-counter of Olympomania is going to go zoink off the scale.
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.
