“I just wanted somebody to tell me that I could sing.”

The amount of hot girls who come to signings is incredible!

Live for who and what you love and never compromise your beliefs for anything or anyone.

I will never hurt a girl, I respect them too much.

It’s cool to know that I can make girls faint.

In life we have decisions to make, paths to take and opportunities to take advantage of.

I’m a massive fan of Drake, and we walked right past him. He’s too cool to be clapping One Direction though.

Little Things isn’t about anyone in particular, it’s about all girls. You’re all beautiful and you need to hear it more often.

If you meet a girl, you meet a girl. It’s normal, so if you exchange numbers, whatevs, it’s cool.

We needed to make a sound that’s not gonna fit in with everything else – we wanted to make something that was completely unique and individual to us. We spent a lot of time trying to make a sound that was a One Direction sound. At first it was quite hard to do that, but I’m really happy with the sound.

Enjoy life, it has an expiration date.

Just because your aren’t perfect, doesn’t mean you aren’t beautiful.

Whenever anything went wrong at home, because I was the only boy, I would get blamed for it straight away. Girls stick together.

My new year’s resolution is definitely to quit smoking. I need to do it.

Never live life in fear of death.

There’s so much more to the book than the page you were stuck on.

When fans start screaming when they see me it makes my heart smile.

Anything I can sing, I call a song. Anything I can’t sing, I call a poem.

I remember singing around the house to records that were playing. All kinds of music. And the great James Cleveland was often in our house, and I grew up with his sound as well.

And I will find some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow, Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings.

Mockingbirds don’t do one thing but make music for us to enjoy. They don’t eat up people’s gardens, don’t nest in corncribs, they don’t do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That’s why it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.

Dare to be honest and fear no labor. … Opera is where a man gets stabbed in the back, and instead of dying, he sings.

I sing the progress of a deathless soul.

If somebody’s trying to shut you up, sing louder, and if possible, better.

Mozart didn’t need a scheme for his music. He played and sang with the heavenly lightness of a child.
