The most political thing you can do is be yourself
BOY GEORGE -

BOY GEORGE -
I would rather have a cup of tea than sex.
BOY GEORGE -
The idea that gay people have to mimic what obviously doesn’t work for straight people any more… I think is a bit tragic. I am looking forward to gay divorces.
BOY GEORGE -

BOY GEORGE -

BOY GEORGE -
I think we grow into ourselves. And unfortunately we do it in the spotlight, so when we make mistakes, everybody knows about it.
BOY GEORGE -
The best thing you can do is work on your personality because we’re all gonna get ugly.
BOY GEORGE -
Voting for New Labour is like helping an old lady across the road while screaming ‘Get a move on!’ Even the Tories, who you could once rely on to be completely heartless are pretending to care.
BOY GEORGE -
I’m not someone who can sing anything… And my favorite singers aren’t people whose voice you would say is amazing.
BOY GEORGE -
