From Monty Python's Flying Circus-
We would like to apologize for the way in which politicians are represented in this programme. It was never our intention to imply that politicians are weak-kneed political time-servers who are concerned more with their personal vendettas and private power struggles than the problems of government, nor to suggest at any point that they sacrifice their credibility by denying free debate on vital matters in the mistaken impression that party unity comes before the well-being of the people they supposedly represent, nor to imply at any stage that they are squabbling little toadies without an ounce of concern for the vital social problems of today. Nor indeed do we intend that viewers should consider them as crabby ulcerous little self-seeking vermin with furry legs and an excessive addiction to alcohol and certain explicit sexual practices which some people might find offensive.
We are sorry if this impression has come across.

My favourite Python thing is not a quote, it's a moment.
The fish slapping dance is about the greatest sketch ever written, yet it doesn't have any words.
There's just something fantastically silly about a guy in shorts and a pith helmet dancing and slapping another guy around the face with fish.
