Sci-fi has never really been my bag. But I do believe in a lot of weird things these days, such as synchronicity. Quantum physics suggests it's possible, so why not?
John Cleese
Laughter destroys any divisions between people.

Don't let anyone tell you what you ought to like... Some wines that some experts think are absolutely exquisite don't appeal to me at all.

Political correctness is a bit like a granny, a maiden aunt arriving at a party when everyone's having a good time. And she comes in, they all start sort of buttoning up and becoming self-conscious and behaving properly and then when she leaves, you can have fun again.
John Cleese
Oh, I could spend my life having this conversation - look - please try to understand before one of us dies

And it's only when you just at the end, you put the final polish on it, it becomes really funny again.
John Cleese

John Cleese
My views are heretical to people who believe in political correctness.
John Cleese

The main evolutionary significance of humor is that it gets us from the closed mode to the open mode quicker than anything else.
John Cleese
I get bored easily. I've been bored most of my life.
John Cleese
I have a tendency sometimes to get too logical with what I'm writing, just because I want it to be kind of perfect.
John Cleese
It's a plastic surgeon you need, not a doctor
John Cleese
When you've been doing comedy for forty years, you really do know most of the jokes. And even if you don't know a specific joke, you can pretty much guess what it's going to be.
John Cleese
The most creative people have learned to tolerate the slight discomfort of indecision for much longer and so, just because they put in more pondering time, their solutions are more creative.
John Cleese
I think it takes a long time, as you get older, to realize just how crazy the world is, just how ridiculous it all is.
John Cleese
Bureaucrats shouldn't be in charge of comedy.
John Cleese
Loving your neighbour as much as yourself is practically bloody impossible? You might as well have a commandment that states,'Thou shalt fly'.
