I think NATO is a Cold War product. I think NATO historically should have shut up shop in 1990 along with the Warsaw Pact; unfortunately, it didn't.

I think in English history a very interesting character is John Lilburne. Very interesting character because of the way he managed to develop the whole debate about the English civil war into something very different.

I wish I could shut up, but I can't, and I won't.

When I started singing, I couldn't be shut up.

It's good to shut up sometimes.

The Cold War is over but Cold War thinking survives.
