Two quotes from the book my niece bought me for Christmas...

Man the lifeboats.

The idiots are winning.

Charlie Brooker

Other people are a mistake.

If I could morph into someone it would be Quentin Crisp, Grayson Perry or, possibly, Alan Bennett.

And, because it’s Christmas. This Quentin Crisp quote seems apt:

“Living en famille provides the strongest motives for rudeness combined with the maximum opportunity for displaying it.”

I remember when his New York flat was featured on 'Through the Keyhole'. It was instantly recognisable to me. Chris Tarrant was on the show, and remarked 'It's a tip.'

It was. Dirty fingermarks and junk everywhere. But I'm sure Quentin was happy with it... which is all that mattered.
