'Let us remind ourselves: words are very dangerous, they are dynamite. Jokes can't start a revolution, but they can loosen the bricks in the wall. A joke introduces a little anarchy into the world, a bit of disruption. It tests the limits; it pushes them.'

Love Kureishi's books. Don't always understand them, but love them anyway. Well, except when he writes really pretentious essays. But I'll even forgive him that, cos alot of the time he writes stuff that makes sense.
