“I love Sherlock Holmes. I've got all his books, leather-bound. What I thought was great about Sherlock Holmes was that not only was he a supersleuth, he was also a hard worker. Not only did he go out and solve the crimes, he came home and wrote it all down. Fantastic. That's why I admire him.”
Steve Coogan, Alan Partridge: Every Ruddy Word : All the Scripts: From Radio to TV and Back

“We're all a bit of a dick. It's the human condition. Nothing to be afraid of.”
Steve Coogan

“Far from being this big, booming voice, the Daily Mail is just a little man behind a curtain.”
Steve Coogan, Easily Distracted: My Autobiography
