“I think it’s very important that you have at least some sort of inner thing you don’t talk about. That’s why I find it distasteful when all these pop stars talk about their habits.”

The past is a great place and I don’t want to erase it or to regret it, but I don’t want to be its prisoner either.

All dancing is a replacement for sex.

Don’t take life too seriously and always remember: it is just a passing fad.

I don’t know if rock is dying. I wouldn’t want to say that, but the world does change. Nothing stays the same.

Normally I am not so violent. Everything comes from the question: Where will I die? It is a strong concern.

Too much is never enough.

Don’t you think it’s sometimes wise not to grow up.

People think they know you. They know the things about you that you have forgotten.

In England they always try out new mobile phones in Isle of Man. They’ve got a captive society. So I said, you should try the legalization of all drugs on the Isle of Man and see what happens.

Only a madman or an actor would want to be President of the United States.

You have to sing every day so you can build up to being, you know, Amazingly Brilliant.

I don’t think enjoying life is an exclusive prerogative of young people.

I’m not the businessman. I don’t deal with the business at all. Not anymore. Occasionally, every four years or five years, they tell me I’ve run out of money, I have to go and make some more.

The only performance that makes it, that really makes it, that makes it all the way, is the one that achieves madness.

A good thing never ends.

I always think it’s better to be not taking drugs or drinking or anything. That’s not saying I’ve never done it because I have. But I sort of learned I think after a while there has been – it didn’t take me that long to realize that it wasn’t a good thing.

Your habits will determine your quality of life.

The trick to success is to choose the right habit and bring just enough discipline to establish it.

It takes a habit to break a habit. You can pray every day for a generous heart, but until you start acting in that direction, nothing’s going to change.

It is impossible for a man to be freed from the habit of sin before he hates it, just as it is impossible to receive forgiveness before confessing his trespasses.

You can get used to anything if you have to, even feeling perpetually guilty.

My worst habit used to be smoking but I quit.

Habits are like submarines; they run silent and deep.

Study the habits of the people you want to be like and then imitate them. If they are succeeding, they must be doing something right.
