The jokes are great but what really matters for a comedian is his performance, his whole attitude, and the laughs that he gets between the jokes rather than on top of the jokes. – Jack Dee
Im just part of a tradition of people who arent pleased. I would never think anyone else who has the same attitude was getting it from me. Id just think theyre… sensible. – Jack Dee
There were a few teachers who just did not like me because of my face. Once, I was told to stand in the corner until I cheered up. The attitude was, Oh, for Gods sake, whats the matter with him? But its just a natural expression. – Jack Dee
Mmmm… the comedy that matters is the comedy you pull out of thin air. Its a bit like when something funny has happened and you try to explain it to someone else and end up saying, You had to be there. – Jack Dee
