I've come across some great quotes from a couple of old T.V shows i really liked and thought I'd post them here.

Those shows were the political sattires "Yes, Minister" and "Yes, Prime Minister".

Fell free to add any quotes from anything at all that you particularly liked.



Sir Humphrey's Longest Sentence:

"Well, it's clear that the committee has agreed that your new policy is a really excellent plan but in view of some of the doubts being expressed, may I propose that I recall that after careful consideration, the considered view of the committee was that while they considered that the proposal met with broad approval in prinicple, that some of the principles were sufficiantly fundamental in prinicple and some of the considerations so complex and finely balancd in practice, that, in principle, it was proposed that the sensible and prudent practice would be to submit the proposal for more detailed consideration, laying stress on the essential continuity of the new proposal with existing principles, and the principle of the principle arguments which the proposal proposes and propounds for their approval, in principle.


Bernard Wooley's Longest sentence:

Apparently, the fact that you needed to know was not known at the time that the now known need to know was known, therefore those that needed to advise and in form the home secretary perhaps felt the information he needed as to whether to inform the highest authority of the known information was not yet known and therefore there was no authority for the authority to be informed because the need to known was not, at that time, known or needed."


Bernard: "You only need to known things on a need to know basis."

Sir humphrey: "I need to know everything. How else can I judge whether or not I need to know it?"

Bernard: "So you need to know things, even when you don't need to know them. You need to know them not because you need to know them, but because you need to know whether or not you need to know. And if you don't need to know you still need to know so that you know that there was no need to know..."

Humphrey: "Yes!"

"The methods that the Chinese used to intimidate the population were so abhorent that they were almost beyond the capacity of my imagination. It was no until I read the report published in 1959 by the International Commission of Jurists that I fully accepted what I had heard: crucifixion, vivisection, disembowelling and dismemberment of victims was commonplace. So too were beheading, burning, beating to death and burying alive, not to mention dragging people behind galloping horses until they died or hanging them upside down of throwing them bound hand and foot into icy water. And in order to prevent them shouting out,'Long live the Dalai Lama', on the way to execution, they tore out their tongues with meat hooks."
