More quotes by Steve Coogan
I love Sherlock Holmes. I've got all his books, leather-bound. What I thought was great about Sherlock Holmes was that not only was he a supersleuth, he was also a hard worker. Not only did he go out and solve the crimes, he came home and wrote it all down. Fantastic. That's why I admire him.

That was liquid football

A woman wearing a revealing dress will always be sexier than a naked woman.
Steve Coogan
The one thing that gives you faith is the fact that people can be apart physically but they can still have an emotional connection.
Steve Coogan
I'm not like a politician that goes around talking about family values. And I can't get fired from being a funny person because I did something that most people are disapproving of. I think people are just obsessed with this morality that people perceive as being the right and wrong way of doing stuff.
Steve Coogan
The great thing is that the funny side of getting old is fuel for my comedy.
Steve Coogan
I happen to have a public profile. Ditto newspaper editors. It's a result of what I do, not an end.
Steve Coogan
Convoy? Michael, you're hanging around with a man who uses a collective term for a single vehicle.
Steve Coogan
I like the fact that people come together who have shared values, but I don't believe that a man died 2,000 years ago and was crucified on a cross to save me from my original sin.
Steve Coogan
If it was just the potatoes that were affected, at the end of the day you will pay the price if you're a fussy eater.
Steve Coogan
What terrifies me is that I might somehow endorse that view so people think they don't have to read books anymore.
Steve Coogan
Going to a grammar school, you mixed with all sorts of different types and I used to listen to how they talked. When I did my imitations, I could sound like someone really rough, or I could sound like a cabinet minister.
Steve Coogan
Actually, bizarrely, in America, I get more appreciation from the odd, unusual stuff I've done, almost because I'm not, if you like, famous in America as I am in England.
Steve Coogan
Two thousand years ago, the Holy family had a ramble from Nazareth to Bethlehem - in much the same way as I'm having a ramble from Norwich to Swaffham. Although I'm not comparing myself to Jesus - I don't want to get bogged down in that whole controversy again.
Steve Coogan
I'm an entertainer. I don't go round saying I'm a paragon of virtue, so that is clearly not in the public interest.
Steve Coogan
I'm not Mother Teresa. But I'm not Frank Bough, either. I am getting older and a bit more sensible. I'm not going to be popping up in dungeons every six months. If you catch me preaching fidelity while I am shagging chickens then throw the book at me. Otherwise, leave me alone.
Steve Coogan
If the person who can effectively sanction ill-conceived wars can play the electric guitar, which is a symbol of rebellion, then that whole worldview becomes confused.
Steve Coogan
I'm 47, my girlfriend's 33 she's 14 years younger than me: Back of the net!
Steve Coogan
I'm a single guy now and can do what I like. As my agent said, so long as it's not a live man or a dead woman, I'll be fine. And that, hand on heart, is unlikely to happen.
Steve Coogan
I woke with a start. At first I assumed I'd trumped myself awake again.
