More quotes by Russell Brand
As a performer, I'm very, very confident in what I do.
Russell Brand
Don't listen to me. I'm a maniac, but the voice in your head, ask it Is it right to kill 200 million animals simply for fun?. What did it say? Right. There you go.
Russell Brand
It is difficult to feel sympathy for these people. It is difficult to regard some bawdy drunk and see them as sick and powerless. It is difficult to suffer the selfishness of a drug addict who will lie to you and steal from you and forgive them and offer them help. Can there be any other disease that renders its victims so unappealing?
Russell Brand
I also quite like to be recognized by children I find it sweet.
Russell Brand
Drugs and alcohol are not my problem, reality is my problem, drugs and alcohol are my solution.
Russell Brand
I've always been a 'your parents have got to come up to the school' type of person. Even now, when I do something wrong - if I say something inappropriate on a live tv show, for example - I half expect to have to deliver a note to Barbara Brand: 'Please come up to Channel 4 head office, Russell's done something despicable.
Russell Brand
Turns out it was mostly a lie. But, at least for a short while, it was a beautiful one.
Russell Brand
It doesn't matter how many pairs of shoes you have, how many cars you have, etc.... It's all utterly meaningless and yet we continue to pursue this. Why? Because they've learned they can stimulate our primal desires through selling us products.
Russell Brand
It is 10 years since I used drugs or drank alcohol and my life has improved immeasurably. I have a job, a house, a cat, good friendships and generally a bright outlook.
Russell Brand
I have never voted. Like most people I am utterly disenchanted by politics. Like most people I regard politicians as frauds and liars and the current political system as nothing more than a bureaucratic means for furthering the augmentation and advantages of economic elites.
Russell Brand
Say I feel all sad and self-indulgent, then get stung by a wasp, my misery feels quite abstract and I long just to be in spiritual pain once more - 'damn you tiny assassin, clad in yellow and black, how I crave my former innocence where melancholy was my only trial'.
Russell Brand
I also do a lot of Kundalini yoga.
Russell Brand
Life is not a theme park, and if it is, the theme is death.
Russell Brand
My life is just a series of embarrassing incidents strung together by telling people about those embarrassing incidents.
Russell Brand
No-one really feels self-confident deep down because it's an artificial idea. Really, people aren't that worried about what you're doing or what you're saying, so you can drift around the world relatively anonymously: you must not feel persecuted and examined. Liberate yourself from that idea that people are watching you.
Russell Brand
Consciousness exists beyond your head, between our heads, and it can manifest harmony.
Russell Brand
Even as a junkie I stayed true [to vegetarianism] - 'I shall have heroin, but I shan't have a hamburger.' What a sexy little paradox.
Russell Brand
Imagine the wisdom to be passed down from the classical Buddhist texts.
Russell Brand
In England, we have such good manners that if someone says something impolite, the police will get involved.
Russell Brand
Socialism isn't a dirty word it just means sharing. Really, it's just the bureaucratic arm of Christianity.
Russell Brand
