More quotes by David Walliams
I don't have a fear factor. Well, not much of one. And I'm willing to risk quite a lot - as a comedian, you're always risking a lot. You're risking failure, especially if you're improvising and going on TV shows trying to make comedy out of thin air. That is quite a risky business.

I haven't traditionally been a family entertainer.
David Walliams
We've got 12-year-old boys dressing up as transvestites.
David Walliams
It's easier not to make a particular joke in case it offends. But every joke will offend someone, and I've always believed that the audience is bigger than one person. The danger is that things will become bland.
David Walliams
People think writing a children's book is something you could do in an afternoon but it's actually really hard.
David Walliams
I was depressed as a child. I found it hard to make friends. My favourite thing was locking myself in the bathroom and practising comedy routines.
David Walliams
I don't know what I'll be like when I'm 60. I already have the traits of a retired gentleman.
David Walliams
I love telling stories. I love the intimacy between the writer and reader. When you write sketches it's over in two minutes. When you write a book the characters have to have a bit of emotional depth.
David Walliams
I can't see why anyone would want to be in politics because you get so much criticism.
David Walliams
When I was a child I devoured every book I could get my hands on. I loved losing myself in colourful and dramatic stories - and my absolute favourite was 'Charlie And The Chocolate Factory.' Everything about it electrified me, and when I re-read Roald Dahl's books as an adult it surprised me.
David Walliams
Ricky Gervais would have you believe otherwise, but Sacha Baron Cohen is the most successful British comedian in the world.
David Walliams
There's a sort of magic and music to comedy. Some words, some numbers even, are funnier than others. A Caramac bar, for instance, is funnier than a Milky Way.
David Walliams
I think most people that do comedy write for themselves. I don't think there is any other way you can do it, really. Otherwise it would be quite cynical.
David Walliams
I don't get recognized much, and am very happy with that. The fans I have met have all been delightful.
David Walliams
I used to have a silk dressing gown an uncle bought in Japan and when I came downstairs in it, my dad used to call me Davinia. There was never embarrassment about that kind of thing. My sister used to dress me up a lot. She thought I was a little doll.
David Walliams
There's something about being a comedian that means you have to not be scared of failing because failing is part of the process.
David Walliams
I thrive off the company of others, I love being sociable.

All you can do in this life is follow your dreams. Otherwise you're just wasting your time.
David Walliams
I'm not a political thinker, but I've just always thought of myself as a Labour supporter. I was a great fan of Tony Blair. He sent me a letter before I swam the Channel to wish me luck.
David Walliams
I haven't put much effort into my personal life and blithely believe it will turn out all right in the end.
