Eddie Izzard
I did bronze survival swimming. I could save people in a bronzey kind of way.
Eddie Izzard
I'm into humanity. I don't believe in God, but I believe in human beings.

If you get anything creative going, then the work and play thing is the same thing, I feel.
Eddie Izzard
If you go down as a comedian's comedian, that's basically meaning other comedians are hopefully feeling that you're doing okay.
Eddie Izzard
I try to just talk about human stories and what I think about religion or teapots or whatever.
