Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson (born 19 June 1964) is a British Conservative Party politician, who has served as Mayor of London since 2008.

# | Quote |
---|---|
1 | I think I was once given cocaine, but I sneezed so it didn't go up. In fact, it may have been icing sugar. |
2 | My friends: as I have discovered myself, there are no disasters, there are only opportunities. And indeed, opportunities for fresh disasters. |
3 | In 1904, 20% of journeys were made by bicycle in London. I want to see a figure like that again. If you can't turn the clock back to 1904, what's the point of being a Conservative? |
4 | [on gay marriage] You can take your partner up the Arcelor... and marry him. |
5 | [on his potential Tory rivals in Parliament] After 2016 who knows what will happen. But I'm very, very happy with the job of mayor of London. They should cool their porridge, save their breath, put their shoulders to the wheel, all hands to the mast, and all shoot from the same trench - to mix my metaphors. |
6 | To rinse the gutters of public life, you need a gutter press. |
7 | My policy on cake is pro having it and pro eating it. |
8 | [while trapped on a zip-line while celebrating an Olympic gold medal] Get me a rope. Get me a ladder. I think the brakes got stuck. |
9 | My speaking style was criticised by no less an authority than Arnold Schwarzenegger. It was a low moment, my friends, to have my rhetorical skills denounced by a monosyllabic Austrian cyborg. |
10 | I'm a Jiffy disposal unit when it comes to leftovers. Apple cores: count me in. Fish heads: I'm your man, especially the eyes, yum yum. |
11 | [in explanation for late work]: Dark forces dragged me away from the keyboard, swirling forces of irresistible intensity and power. |
