“I had to learn how to function as a human being. And I really enjoyed that process.”

How wonderful life is while you’re in the world

I guess that’s why they call it the blues, time on my hands could be time spent with you.

I’m going to fight for human rights, whether I do it silently behind the scenes or vocally so that I get locked up. I can’t just sit back; it’s not in my nature. I can’t sit back and blindly ignore it, and I won’t.

The less I say the more my work gets done.

Don’t let the sun go down on me Although I search myself, it’s always someone else I see I’d just allow a fragment of your life to wander free But losing everything is like the sun going down on me

There is nothing wrong with going to bed with someone of your own sex. People should be very free with sex, they should draw the line at goats.

There’s a lot of hate in the world.

Ever since I had that interview in which I said I was bisexual it seems twice as many people wave at me in the streets.

I think people should be free to engage in any sexual practices they choose; they should draw the line at goats, though.

The whole point of being in this business and being blessed and being successful is that you’re able to do things for your friends or your family, which means that they can have something special in their lives, too.

It’s the circle of life, and it moves us all, through despair and hope, through faith and love, ’till we find our place, on the path unwinding.

Love’s like a junkie, addiction’s a fact. Passion’s a monkey, you can’t keep off your back.

I was more ashamed that I couldn’t work the washing machine than the fact that I was taking drugs.

I was just genuinely shy. I’d always been a shy kid.

I was sitting in the classroom trying to look intelligent in case the teacher looked at me.

As a child, as a teenager, I was kind of not allowed to wear fashionable clothes.

As an artist myself I don’t like to be preached. I want to enjoy myself, so I kind of use that perspective to make music.

I enjoy singing my songs in front of people. I enjoy being involved in making the artwork for albums and stupid stuff like that.

Cry later, but for now, let’s enjoy the laughter.

I enjoy it when it’s over! I enjoy whatever success we have. If an audience finds it funny, then it’s been worth it.

It’s a new day. Count your blessings, think twice before you complain, give more than you ask for, do what makes you happy and enjoy life.

The older one gets, the more one feels that the present moment must be enjoyed, comparable to a state of grace.

I really love animals and enjoy working with them.

A man who has been through bitter experiences and travelled far enjoys even his sufferings after a time.
