I think, you're not blagging me on this ridiculous journey, with this bit of paper. I think if you want to change things, it's not with an X on a piece of paper, it's with an X on someone's forehead.
Russell Brand
Democracy is a gleaming Excalibur - let's not use it just to mend the toaster.
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

Russell Brand
I didn't cross the line, you drew it in after I traversed it.
Russell Brand
To this day, I feel a fierce warmth for women that have the same disregard for the social conventions of sexual protocol as I do. I love it when I meet a woman and her sexuality is dancing across her face, so it's apparent that all we need to do is nod and find a cupboard.
Russell Brand
I think what's actually happened is print media is becoming obsolete, and this is like the floundering corpse of a dying media. It is just twitching.
Russell Brand
Total revolution of consciousness and our entire social, political and economic system is what interests me, but that's not on the ballot.
Russell Brand
Imagine the wisdom to be passed down from the classical Buddhist texts.
Russell Brand
The greatest poverty one can have is to be poor in one's heart and for falling in love, he is truly happy. He discovers purpose.
Russell Brand
Even in name, he seems like a Victorian oddity. Igor, fetch 'the Crouch' from the catacombs, we're going to the graveyard.
Russell Brand
I'm into yoga, I meditate all the time, I'm vegetarian.
Russell Brand
As long as we prioritize material truths over spiritual truths we will live in tyranny because we are living an illusion
Russell Brand
Normally, I'm good at first dates, 'cause that's the only date I ever have, so I know how to control it and be confident.
