Best quote ever
from last series:
Paul Torrisi - "I am a Roman Catholic and as God is my witness, I shook her hand outside."
Sir Alan Sugar - "Yeah? Well, I'm Jewish and I couldn't care less."
Some quotes from somewhere, none are commented on by me:
"I've never had a problem with stepping up to the plate." - Salesman Alex kicks off a whole episode of clichéd corporate gobbledegook with this well-loved classic.
"There are two types of people in the world: winners and… I can't say it, and I won't say it." - I can, Ian. The phrase you seek is: 'Winners and Ians'.
"I am a natural born salesman. The spoken word is my tool." - Raef stakes his claim to be this year's Tre Azam.
"As a salesperson I rate myself as probably the best in Europe." - Jenny Maguire has ideas way above her station.
"Alchemy… it's kind of like making magic." - No, Kevin, it is not.
"It says turkey on the side. Is that where it's from or…?" - Lindi shows her hand early: she is without doubt a 24-carat imbecile.
"I am going to fight to the death in that boardroom." - Raef over-exaggerates his tactics for boardroom survival.
"I literally left with my hands bleeding." - No, Raef, you didn't.
"If stuff comes back from the laundry that I don't like I sling it back at them." - Pity the poor laundrette that has to deal with Sir Alan's smalls.
"You are not capable of acknowledging where you went wrong." - It's unclear whether Jenny was talking to Lucinda or herself at this point.
"We're taking the problem straight by the horns." - Mixed metaphor hell from Raef.
"I have had experience of laundry equipment… in Bosnia." - Simon was lieutenant in charge of clean pants during his time in the army.
"I come from a sales background where I've been highly successful." - Not this week you weren't, Jenny.
"There's already clicks going on." - That's 'cliques', Lucinda.
"There's absolutely no point making a fuss. I can't stand whiners." - Whines project leader Raef.
"She lied, she complained, she manipulated other people…" - Jenny sticks the knife in to Shazia.
