More From Paul Merton

Horror is like comedy. woody allen's comedy is going to be very different from ben stiller's comedy which is going to be different from adam sandler's comedy which is going to be different from judd apatow's comedy. they're all comedy, but they're all very different types and you can enjoy all of them. horror is the same way.
Different Way Comedy
I think that comedy really tells you how it is. the other thing about comedy is that - you don't even know if you're failing in drama, but you do know when you're failing in comedy. when you go to a comedy and you don't hear anybody laughing, you know that you've failed.
Drama Thinking Laughing
Each pursues his private interest and only his private interest; and thereby serves the private interests of all, the general interest, without willing it or knowing it. the real point is not that each individual's pursuit of his private interest promotes the totality of private interests, the general interest. one could just as well deduce from this abstract phrase that each individual reciprocally blocks the assertion of the others' interests, so that, instead of a general affirmation, this war of all against all produces a general negation.
Block Real War
The human interest, and the natural interest, and the spiritual interest of this planet need to begin to take a priority over the corporate interest, the military interest, and the materialistic interests.
Spiritual Military Priorities
There is no self-interest completely unrelated to others' interests. due to the fundamental interconnectedness which lies at the heart of reality, your interest is also my interest. from this it becomes clear that "my" interest and "your" interest are intimately connected. in a deep sense, they converge.
Lying Heart Reality
Now listen to the first three aims of the corporatist movement in germany, italy and france during the 1920s. these were developed by the people who went on to become part of the fascist experience: (1) shift power directly to economic and social interest groups; (2) push entrepreneurial initiative in areas normally reserved for public bodies; (3) obliterate the boundaries between public and private interest -- that is, challenge the idea of the public interest. this sounds like the official program of most contemporary western governments.

I love rauschenberg. i love that he created a turning point in visual history, that he redefined the idea of beauty, that he combined painting, sculpture, photography, and everyday life with such gall, and that he was interested in, as he put it, 'the ability to conceive failure as progress.'

Frankly, i do not like the idea of conversations to define the term "unconditional surrender."the german people can have dinned into their ears what i said in my christmas eve speech--in effect, that we have no thought of destroying the german people and that we want them to live through the generations like other european peoples on condition, of course, that they get rid of their present philosophy of conquest.
