People have always said, are you gay? I’ve had a lot of that. But it’s just not in me. I really like women a lot; I’m repulsed by men sexually. Russell Brand
It would have been convenient to be gay. Just because of the grooming, the narcissism, stuff like that. But I have this kind of roaring heterosexuality. Traditional, uncomplicated heterosexuality, an almost cliched Robin Askwith thing. Russell Brand
Strength does not have to be belligerent and loud. Russell Brand

No-one really feels self-confident deep down because it’s an artificial idea.

Liberate yourself from that idea that people are watching you. Russell Brand
It’s difficult to believe in yourself because the idea of self is an artificial construction. You are, in fact, part of the glorious oneness of the universe. Everything beautiful in the world is within you. Russell Brand

When I was growing up, I thought I’d be a lot happier if I was famous and successful and if I had money. Russell Brand
As a person… I’m a little more doubtful, introspective and analytical. Russell Brand
I recognize that I have the ability to be selfish, but I also recognize that you can’t be happy if you only care about yourself at the expense of other people. Russell Brand
I don’t know if this is the kind of retrospective analysis that people are fond of applying to their work or actions, but it feels like I knew I was going to be famous and I knew that an element of that would be traumatic, so that if I could make myself something big and otherworldly, it would be a kind of defence. Russell Brand
As a performer, I’m very, very confident in what I do. Russell Brand

I do have a regard for the musicality of language that came from BBC sitcoms like ‘Fawlty Towers.’ Russell Brand
