Jack Dee People Quotations

People who are pro smacking children say, 'It's the only language they understand.' You could apply that to tourists.

I really hated fighting people and hurting them, but felt unable to stop.

I tend not to trust people who live in very tidy houses. I know that on the surface there is nothing wrong with a person being well-ordered and disciplined. Nothing, except that it leaves the impression of that person having lived in the confines of a stark institution which, although he or she has long since left, remains within.

I think it is more a cautiousness that protects me from enthusiasm about things. I tend not to get excited. People perceive it as a scowl, which is fair enough.

And people are intrigued if I really am as grumpy in real life. People feel a bit let down if I'm laughing or smiling.
