Stewart Lee Quote: “I don’t think stand-up should really work on the page, so the very existence of this book is an indication of my ultimate failure as a comedian.

Stewart Lee Quote: “I am a professional humorist, and objectively the third most critically acclaimed British stand-up comedian of the twenty-first century.
