“I think fame itself is not a rewarding thing. The most you can say is that it gets you a seat in restaurants.”

I’ve never responded well to entrenched negative thinking.

I’m just an individual who doesn’t feel that I need to have somebody qualify my work in any particular way. I’m working for me.

I could never, ever talk to my father. I really loved him, but we couldn’t talk about anything together. There was this really British thing that being even remotely emotional was absolutely verboten.

Tomorrow belongs to those who can hear it coming.

I have found myself deeply, deeply intrigued by the ska-punk scene. It’s such an expressive form of popular music, it’s so real, it’s got so much life: it’s the most vital music in the world.

I was studying Tibetan Buddhism when I was quite young, again influenced by Kerouac.

Make the best of every moment. We’re not evolving. We’re not going anywhere.

The media is either our salvation or our death.

I don’t make changes to confuse anyone. I’m just searching. That’s what causes me to change. I’m just searching for myself.

Heathenism is a state of mind. You can take it that I’m referring to one who does not see his world. He has no mental light. He destroys almost unwittingly. He cannot feel any Gods presence in his life. He is the 21st century man.

I’m drawn between the light and dark.

Rock has always been the devil’s music… I believe that rock & roll is dangerous… I feel that we’re only heralding something even darker than ourselves.

Speak in extremes, it’ll save you time.

There’s a starman waiting in the sky, he’d like to come and meet us, but he thinks he’d blow our minds.

Time may change me, but I can’t trace time.

For me a chameleon is something that disguises itself to look as much like its environment as possible. I always thought I did exactly the opposite of that.

Success is when your signature becomes an autograph.

The thing about Bollywood is that you can’t just quit it even if you have little fame. You have to stick around and keep trying.

What wretched doings come from the ardor of fame; the love of truth alone would never make one man attack another bitterly.

Fame is not the worst thing. I went to dinner the other night, and the girls in the restaurant ignored me. It was so annoying.

Being named among the best is special and beautiful.

To be recognized for the hard work my team and I put into ‘Starboy’ is an honor.

Bob Marley isn’t my name. I don’t even know my name yet.

Every man’s last day is fixed. Lifetimes are brief, and not to be regained, for all mankind. But by their deeds to make their fame last: that is labor for the brave.
