The outfits come and go but there is a constant that I like about the catwalk model: the snotty expression.

Don Quixote's 'Delusions' is an excellent read - far better than my own forthcoming travel book, 'Walking Backwards Across Tuscany.'

Acting in a stage play is like working the evening shift in an office.

I read 'Crime and Punishment' years ago and don't recall the details of it, but I do retain a strong sense of the creeping paranoia and panic.

I find it hilarious that there are academics who try to analyse chemical changes in the brains of students while exposing them to gags.

My eyebrows could do with a trim.

Ninety-eight per cent of laughter is nothing to do with jokes, which do not deserve to bear the weight of all the funny stuff in the world.
