[on the 1980s] I thought the music was a bit rubbish. I liked The Smiths. I thought New Order were good. A few good bands, some good jazz-funk around. Other than that, all I ever think of is devastation and Margaret Thatcher. The only reason we didn't have a revolution was because of the fashions. You know, pixie boots. You can't storm the Winter Palace in them. And those big shoulders, you'd never get through the doors would you? Hide

If a bloke goes for a woman and let's say when you're young you're kind of thinking 'well, you know, how do I get myself sorted here', and that is always seen as a terrible agenda, but in some ways a woman's agenda where she wants to meet a bloke who'll buy her a house forever, that's kind of an even worse agenda.

[on The Bee Gees] I had a go at Clive Anderson once over his calling them tossers because I thought it was completely out of order. I said to him, "Would you have said that to Mick Jagger?" and he said, "No". I said, "Well, then, treat them with the same respect". Hide

Morrissey as a writer, I just love the way he says things, and sometimes he's saying it for a wind-up, sometimes he's saying it because he really believes it. I just love the fact that he still does it because nowadays everyone's so bland. Hide

I actually would think, and this might seem very radical, that unless you're educated by the state, you should not be allowed to work for the state or publicly funded bodies because then you're more in touch with the people. So I think the BBC should not employ anybody from public school type backgrounds, I think the civil service shouldn't be run by anyone from public school backgrounds. They should all be state educated, then they'd take more care of the state, wouldn't they? Hide

My mum, God rest her soul, was a massive Freddie Mercury fan, and every now and then she'd ask me the same question, she'd say "Was he gay?", and I'd say "Yes, mum, he was", and then she'd go "Mind you, he was a funny looking ****, weren't he?" as if to say he was too ugly to get a woman. I'm just saying how my mum saw it. She thought he had a lovely singing voice though. Hide
