A tramp, a gentleman, a poet, a dreamer, a lonely fellow, always hopeful of romance and adventure.

I don't believe that the public knows what it wants; this is the conclusion that I have drawn from my career.

I remain just one thing, and one thing only, and that is a clown. It places me on a far higher plane than any politician.

Nothing is permanent in this wicked world - not even our troubles.

I can see why people keep having babies. We were looking at a school for my youngest this morning, and there were all these little boys and girls. So sweet. And then the teenagers walk past, and, my God, they're enormous, and I bet they don't kiss their mummies. I'm just going to force my children to remain lovely.

True religion is real living; living with all one's soul, with all one's goodness and righteousness.

Join a Bikram-flow-yoga, Flywheel, or Pilates class so you can find spiritual oneness amid grunting socialite moms. Do whatever you want. Just, please, for the love of God, stop talking about it.

I've always been a religious guy, but not overly religious. I've always believed in God and Jesus. I pray.
