There's nothing I'm embarrassed about

Each gig should be unique. You're always treading that line between keeping yourself fresh and giving people something they want to hear

When I'm gone, people will no doubt remember me for Queen, but I would much rather be remembered for attempting to change the way we treat our fellow creatures.

I never took sheet music seriously. I could do better myself just by listening to other people and using my own intuition.

I really thought I was pretty good before I saw Hendrix, and then I thought: Yeah, not so good.

The biggest emotion in creation is the bridge to optimism.

There is no way that you can ever really repeat something. I have this great belief that the magic of the moment can never be recaptured.

I have to build my own boat this time. It's a big sea out there, and I have a pretty small boat. I have a lot of belief in it.

What is left of your dream? Just the words on your stone. A man who learned how to teach then forgot how to learn.

I despise the Lottery. There's less chance of you becoming a millionaire than there is of getting hit on the head by a passing asteroid.

The guitar has a kind of grit and excitement possessed by nothing else.

To teach, ignite the fire of desire to learn.

No matter what has happened always behave as if nothing had happened.

Departure should be sudden.

My mama told me in college, 'I love you, and you're God's child, but natural beauty will only take you so far.'

Right now I'm just thinking about school and trying to get those grades and keep them up! In case I become a Norma Desmond when I grow up, I can have something to fall back on!

Don't blame the boss. He has enough problems.

Everyone wishes to be loved, but in the event, nearly no one can bear it. Everyone desires love but also finds it impossible to believe that he deserves it.

It's kind of fun when it's you versus them.

I go to McDonald's at least once a week. I always get a No. 2.
