FREDDIE MERCURYI think my melodies are superior to my lyrics.
FREDDIE MERCURYIn terms of love, you’re not in control and I hate that feeling. I seem to write a lot of sad songs because I’m a very tragic person. But there’s always an element of humor at the end.
FREDDIE MERCURYI’m hopeless with money; I simply spend what I’ve got.
FREDDIE MERCURYI dress to kill, but tastefully.
FREDDIE MERCURYWe’re a bit flashy, but the music’s not one big noise.
FREDDIE MERCURYI’m very emotional. I think I may go mad in several years’ time.
FREDDIE MERCURYI fall in love much too quickly and that results in me getting badly hurt. The problem with love is that you lose control and that is a very vulnerable state to be in.
FREDDIE MERCURYLove of my life, you’ve hurt me. You’ve broken my heart, and now you leave me. Love of my life, can’t you see? Bring it back, bring it back, and don’t take it away from me, because you don’t know what it means to me.
FREDDIE MERCURYI’m possessed by love, but isn’t everybody?
FREDDIE MERCURYOnstage, I am a devil. But I’m hardly a social reject.
FREDDIE MERCURYI never thought of myself as the leader, the most important person, perhaps.
FREDDIE MERCURYYou can have everything in the world and still be the loneliest man. And that is the most bitter type of loneliness, success has brought me world idolization and millions of pounds. But it’s prevented me from having the one thing we all need: A loving, ongoing relationship.
FREDDIE MERCURYWho wants to live forever?
FREDDIE MERCURYThe more you open up, the more you get hurt. So basically, I’m just riddled with scars and I just don’t want any more.
FREDDIE MERCURYIn fact, we all need danger and excitement.
FREDDIE MERCURYMy soul is painted like the wings of butterflies, Fairy tales of yesterday will grow but never die, I can fly, my friends.
