I like jokes and one-liners. I enjoy entertaining and making people laugh, being the funny man. But when I’m launched into unfamiliar environments I shut down, and as I relax then my character emerges. Keith Flint Read Quote

Normal’ is not clinical, it’s not autobiographical, and I don’t claim to be objective. It’s strictly my perceptions and thoughts about the people that I met and the stories that I heard. It was never meant to be an academic work. Amy Bloom Read Quote
I’m not a big fan of the thought that you can become a star by winning a contest. I’m sort of old-fashioned.
