If God did not intend for us to eat animals, then why did he make them out of meat?

English television from the Fifties to the Nineties was the least bad in the world, and now it's just as bad as it is anywhere.

England is a fairly envious little country and it's embodied in the press. They don't like anyone being more distinguished than they are.

I find the Alexander Technique very helpful in my work. Things happen without you trying. They get to be light and relaxed. You must get an Alexander teacher to show it to you.

British press think entirely in clichés, and when they do come across creative work, they think that it must be based on something, because they don't realize that you can create things that aren't based on things.

You can't make Christ funny. He's self-aware, he's too flexible within the situation. It's rigidity, it's when the ego takes over and the behavior becomes inappropriate that it becomes funny.
