“So there, we have figured it out, go back to bed America, your government has figured out how it all transpired. Go back to bed America, your government is in control again. Here, here’s American Gladiators. Watch this, shut up. Go back to bed America, here’s American Gladiators. Here’s 56 channels of it. Watch these pituitary retards bang their fuckin skulls together and congratulate you on living in the land of freedom. Here you go America, you are free… to do as we tell you. You are free, to do as we tell you.”

"The world is like a ride at an amusement park and when you choose to go on it you think it’s real 'cuz that’s how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it’s very brightly colored and it’s very loud. And it’s fun, for awhile. Some people have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question “is this real, or is this just a ride?” And other people have remembered and they come back to us and they say “hey, don’t worry, don’t be afraid - ever -because this is just a ride. And we… kill those people (laughs). (in a different voice) Shut him up. We have a lot invested in this ride. Shut him up! Look at my furrows of worry. Look at my big bank account and my family. This just has to be real. (normal voice) It’s just a ride. But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that. D’ya ever notice that? And let the demons run amok. But it doesn’t matter… because, it’s just a ride. And we can change it any time we want. It’s only a choice. No effort, no work, no jobs, no savings of money… a choice right now between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your door, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here’s what we can do to change the world right now… to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defense each year and instead spend it feeding, clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would many times over, not one human being excluded and we can explore space… together… both inner and outer… forever, in peace.”

“I’m sitting opposite a man, he knows nothing, he talks all the time, the result is he’s a trenchant buffoon, he has no idea how to present television shows, he looks ridiculous in that fashion-wear, he swans around all the time hoping that people will recognise him, when in fact no-body’s even remotely interested, he’s taken up enough of this show already and he hasn’t even opened his mouth, god knows why he’s here, I’ve nothing to ask the guy, and er for all I know he may well be a bit of a cocoa shunter too. Darcus Howe -”
DH: “What’s a cocoa shunter?”
CM: “Cocoa shunter, that’s just what I’ve got - sorry that’s the introduction to Robert Elms… Sorry do you know Robert Elms? I’ve just read out the introduction to Robert Elms.”
