"Ive stopped smoking... I think the cost was a lot of it, and not being able to breathe. I first gave up smoking when I was eight."

"I still think of myself as I was 25 years ago. Then I look in a mirror and see an old bastard and realise its me."

"I dont go out of my way to be outrageous, I just go out of my way to look at things."

"If its sent by ship then its a cargo, if its sent by road then its a shipment."

"We spend our lives on the run: we get up by the clock, eat and sleep by the clock, get up again, go to work - and then we retire. And what do they give us? A fucking clock."
