Ted Nugent, rock star and avid longbow hunter from Michigan, was being interviewed by a French journalist who was an animal rights activist. The discussion came around to deer.
The journalist asked: 'What do you think is the last thought in the head of a deer before you shoot him? Is it, 'Are you my friend?' or is it 'Are you the one who killed my brother?'
Nugent replied: 'Deer aren't capable of that kind of thought. All they care about is: what am I going to eat next, who am I going to screw next, and can I run fast enough to get away. They are very much like the French.'
End of interview.
This is in my all time favourite top 10 quotes ever...splendid.

ReplyDeleteI have heard tell that the last thing that goes through an insect's mins as it crashes at 90mph into the windscreen is its backside; but I can't honestly vouch for that.

ReplyDeleteI once had the pleasure of leaving a Frenchwoman dumbstruck, after listening to her insulting the English for well over an hour, at a very dull party years ago. 'You're French, aren't you?', I asked her. 'Yes,' she replied, ''ow do you know?'. 'You have no manners and no brains', I replied.
ReplyDeleteWhat really delighted me, and amuses me still, is that I passed her in the street the following day. 'Good morning' I said, smiling cheekily. She scowled at me and, with pure, undiluted Gallic venom, replied: 'Piss your face!'
Excellent, Wm Gruff. You did your duty as an Englishman.
