 I always write down hilarious things people say and never keep them. Time to start:
- "Your arms look very 'Hillary' today" - Sarah
- "Sometimes I feel like I'm calling some sort of 24 hour information hotline when I call you. Some completely reliable service you call for random facts and information on current affairs." - Sarah
- "How about these?" "No, too colourful." "They're black and white..."
- "White cheese is straight, and red cheddar cheese is gay, and then there's the mixed cheese, like you."

- "I fight on. I fight to win."
- "I personally have always voted for the death penalty because I believe that people who go out prepared to take the lives of other people forfeit their own right to live. I believe that that death penalty should be used only very rarely, but I believe that no-one should go out certain that no matter how cruel, how vicious, how hideous their murder, they themselves will not suffer the death penalty."
