Thomas Carlyle

Culture is the process by which a person becomes all that they were created capable of being.

Do the duty which lies nearest to you, the second duty will then become clearer.

Egotism is the source and summary of all faults and miseries.

At once I feel that comedy is this amazing sort of transcendent thing, and I'm also open to the fact that maybe it's just an evolutionary hiccup, something that upright apes do in their free time.

I've had people following me home or standing outside my house. It's strange. I just don't think people were meant to be worshipped or idolised.
