Don't do it! Stay away from your potential. You'll mess it up, it's potential, leave it. Anyway, it's like your bank balance - you always have a lot less than you think.

You’re not going to learn anything if you’re not prepared to go flat, so I’m very happy to go flat.

Now I'm not an expert at mathematics, but I calculated it would take at least three of me to take on one third of one of them, even if they were attacking me with just their arse.

Irish people give big hellos and very little goodbyes. Unless they're female, and then they spend five hours talking in the doorway to the person that's leaving their house.

The measure of a conversation is how much mutual recognition there is in it how much shared there is in it. If you're talking about what's in your own head, or without thought to what people looking and listening will feel, you might as well be in a room talking to yourself.

Religion is the yeast of death cakes. It is the most awful agent on a vulnerable mind. It's the refuge of alienated and lonely people. It's what people had before television. It yokes people together into an imaginary world. It is just people talking to their imaginary friends, at length. I wouldn't mind, but some of the people are world leaders.
Dylan Moran

The truth is that I'm constitutionally incapable of doing an ordinary job.
Dylan Moran

You can't please everyone, nor should you seek to, because then you won't please anyone, least of all yourself.
Dylan Moran

We are both drawn to surreal situations so the writing was a joy.
Dylan Moran
Image
I'm fascinated by how you'll change your position so many times over a lifetime, but really what you're doing is occupying a series of positions on a landscape.

I wanted to show off - a simple impulse or drive in much the same way as some kids wanted to play football, I wanted to show off. Not complicated in that sense, very natural it just depends on how you want to show off.
Dylan Moran
Image
I think a lot of the time you just parody yourself.

All the shy people are doomed! Natural selection favors the loud and the aggressive

You achieve the surreal jokes through the realism by making it elastic.

I have a very low level of recognition, which is fine by me.
