“Gay people are made and not born.”

I’m against any religion, and Communism and Nazism – they’re both equally religions. They’re just replacement gods.

I didn’t really want to be in the lifestyle without the music. And I didn’t want to be in the music without the lifestyle.

I’ve never met a girl who could stop me looking at all the others. If I did, I’d marry her.

As a roadie for the Jimi Hendrix Experience, I learned that I should give up being a guitar player.

Rock n’ roll’s had a good time out of me – and I’ve had a very good time out of rock n’ roll.

Eddie Cochran – I never got to see him live, but he could play. Him and Buddy Holly, they were the best guitarists. They could get a good raunchy beat going.

Falling in love is terrible. It makes you act foolish, like an idiot.

Everyone wants to be safe. Well, I got news for you: You can’t be safe. Life’s not safe. Your work isn’t safe.

My persona has given me a certain notoriety, if not international celebrity.

I went to go see the Rolling Stones in the park, and they were awful: completely out of tune. Jagger wore a frock.

Women always left me because I wouldn’t commit, but then nothing changes a relationship like commitment. If you move in with someone, you lose all respect for them.

I don’t eat vegetables. I eat potatoes and green beans, and that’s it.

It’s much more fun to be full of hope than pessimism any day of the week.

We’ve made bad albums in the past, and people have bought them. I don’t know. I don’t care. I’m just grateful for it.

You can’t plan your life. It doesn’t work.

It’s when you get to 60 when everything starts to go pear-shaped. Everyone thinks that becoming an older guy is easy, but you never consider it fully. It comes as quite a shock.

I can single handedly dispel any ideas that sexuality is acquired. Trust me, you’re born with it.

There is no way it would take gay men three hours to find Matt Damon.

If you’ve driven over to the gay section of Los Angeles, it’s like a golf course… Real estate values go ‘boom!’

I don’t care if people think I’m gay. I know I’m not, so it doesn’t bother me.

My favorite thing to do is to wind those guys up by hitting on their girlfriends. I say, ‘I think your girlfriend’s gorgeous, but it’s all right, I’m gay.’ They get very nervous after a few minutes!

It’s always fun teasing the person. When they ask if I’m gay, I say, ‘Oh, I don’t know.

This is why the terrorists hate us. And it’s not the glitter and it’s not the pomp and circumstance.

Wearing Crocs is like getting blown by a dude. It feels great until you look down and realize you’re gay.
