- [2014, on hardly ever drinking alcohol in his personal life] This has always worked out quite well for me. I simply treasure the next day more than the current night. On the show [Circus Halligalli (2013)], I drink with a professional approach. But if I do that every once in a blue moon, it of course has a much bigger effect. It causes a distorted picture.
- [2019] It's late October and I already finished the fifth pack of marzipan potato candy completely single-handedly, and domino tile candy will not even be listed here - good gracious!
- [after having interviewed Benjamin von Stuckrad-Barre, the latter asks if he wants a cigarette] Yes, of course. Woah, I am completely out of breath, let's have a cigarette first.
- [What could people learn from you?] Probably patience. I am a very patient person.
- [2018] If I continue to smoke as much as I do, I am going to be dead soon.
