“A lot of my songs are fantasy. I can dream up all kinds of things. That’s the kind of world I live in. It’s very sort of flamboyant, and that’s the kind of way I write. I love it.”

In fact, we all need danger and excitement.

Money may not buy happiness, but it can damn well give it.

What will I be doing in twenty years’ time? I’ll be dead, darling! Are you crazy?

We don’t do it for the money, we do it for the music.

If I had to do it all over again? Why not, I would do it a little bit differently.

We are all waiting for when there will be peace on earth and the end of the war. If this happens then it would be a miracle.

The 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.

Love 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.

I never thought of myself as the leader, the most important person, perhaps.

The bigger, the better; in everything.

If we’re weird onstage, I don’t know what you’d call the Tubes.

Oh, I was not made for heaven. No, I don’t want to go to heaven. Hell is much better. Think of all the interesting people you’re going to meet down there.

Does it mean this, does it mean that that’s all anybody wants to know? I’d say what any decent poet would say if anyone dared ask him to analyze his work: if you see it, darling, then it’s there!

I was born to love you with every single beat of my heart. I was born to take care of you every single day of my life.

Excess is part of my nature. Dullness is a disease. I really need danger and excitement. I’m never scared of putting myself out on a limb.

It’s more important to grow your income than cut your expenses. It’s more important to grow your spirit that cut your dreams.

The richest people in the world build networks. Everyone else is trained to look for work, that’s why there are two types of people today. Those who build their own dreams and those who build someone else dreams.

When you do your best and live out your dreams, you inspire others to do the same.

You must find your dream, then the way becomes easy.

If you want to change your life, begin by changing your words. Start speaking the words of your dreams, of who you want to become, not the words of fear or failure.

History, Stephen said, is a nightmare from which I am trying to awake.

The size of your success is measured by the strength of your desire; the size of your dream; and how you handle disappointment along the way.

I’m sick of following my dreams. I’m just going to ask them where they’re goin’, and hook up with them later.
