Welcome to Gaia! ::

This is a fantastic series of Quotes by the legendary Spike Milligan, for those of you who don't know, Spike was the godfather of modern comedy with the highly successful Goon Show in the 1950's which influenced Monty Python, another highly influential comedy team who in turn inspired many modern comedians. Spike died in 2002, an accomplished writer and performer, known for being able to add a zany spin to any story including Frankenstein and Treasure Island, in addition to the large collection of childrens literiture he wrote during his life, a life plagued by Manic Depression but one so fulfilled by bringing joy and happiness to countless millions worldwide. These are just a few quotations but they give you an insight into the kind of humour Spike pioneered, somewhat appropriately the day after the 8th anniversary of his passing. Hopefully these quotes will inspire you to want to learn more about Spike and his works so if any further info is needed please PM me.
