― Karl Pilkington

"They keep saying that sea levels are rising an' all this. It's nowt to do with the icebergs melting, it's because there's too many fish in it. Get rid of some of the fish and the water will drop. Simple. Basic science."
― Karl Pilkington, The Ricky Gervais Show - First, Second and Third Seasons

"I always have a problem liking things that I'm told I should like. This has been the problem with most of the Wonders I have seen so far. The fact that this one is called the 'Great' Wall of China annoys me. I'll decide if it's great or not. It might end up being the 'All Right Wall of China' to me."
― Karl Pilkington, An Idiot Abroad: The Travel Diaries of Karl Pilkington

"Everywhere we walked we got plenty of attention due to the camera and sound men. The locals love to get on camera. [...] I'd seen footage of Gandhi surrounded like this and always thought it was because he was very popular, but now I wonder if it was just because he had a camera crew with him."
― Karl Pilkington, An Idiot Abroad: The Travel Diaries of Karl Pilkington

"I find that if you just talk, your mouth comes up with stuff."
― Karl Pilkington

"The problem I have with all this religion stuff is that I can't relate to it. I think most people got into 'cos it gave them something to do on a Sunday, but since all the shops are now open it isn't required as much."
― Karl Pilkington, An Idiot Abroad: The Travel Diaries of Karl Pilkington

"The cafe was called Tattoos. The fella who owned it didn't have any tattoos... but we never saw his wife."

"I really can't believe what a state the Pyramids are in. I thought they had flat rendered sides, but when you get up close, you see how they are just giant boulders balanced on top of each other, like a massive game of Jenga that has got out of hand."
― Karl Pilkington, An Idiot Abroad: The Travel Diaries of Karl Pilkington

"There was some women in a café the other week that I was sat in, and she came up and she sat down with her mate and she was talkin' loudly goin' on about "oh the baby's lovely." They said it's got, er, lovely big eyes, er, really big hands and feet. Now that doesn't sound like a nice baby to me. I felt like sayin' it sounds like a frog. But I thought I don't know her, there's only so much you can say to a stranger. I don't know what kept me from sayin' it."
― Karl Pilkington

"You never see an old man eating a Twix"
― Karl Pilkington

"The problem is, these days you have to listen to too many parts of your body. Sometimes I go with my gut feeling, some say go with what your heart says - it's only a matter of time before my appendix will have an opinion. This is probably why there are so many helplines these days. No one knows who to bloody listen to!"
― Karl Pilkington, The Further Adventures of An Idiot Abroad

"I told her that I can't be doing with the Wonder part of these trips, but she said it should be the icing on the cake... I've never liked wedding cake due to the amount of icing, but then imagine a wedding cake without it; just a dark, stodgy, horrible dry sponge. The icing covers up the mess, and that's how I feel about most of the Wonders. They use them to get people to visit a place that you probably wouldn't think about visiting."
― Karl Pilkington, An Idiot Abroad: The Travel Diaries of Karl Pilkington

"A dog has got human eyes."
― Karl Pilkington

"Treat the world like a head."
― Karl Pilkington
