“The concept of Queen is to be regal and majestic. Glamour is part of us, and we want to be dandy.”

I always knew I was a star. And now, the rest of the world seems to agree with me.

I 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.

Too much love will kill you just as sure as none at all.

We’re a very expensive group; we break a lot of rules. It’s unheard of to combine opera with a rock theme, my dear.

A concert is not a live rendition of our album. It’s a theatrical event.

When we began, we approached it the way we did because we were not prepared to be out-of-work musicians, ever. We said either take it on as a serious commodity or don’t do it at all.

I have fun with my clothes onstage; it’s not a concert you’re seeing, it’s a fashion show.

I won’t be a rockstar. I will be a legend.

I love the fact that I can make people happy, in any form. Even if it’s just an hour of their lives, if I can make them feel lucky or make them feel good, or bring a smile to a sour face, that to me is worthwhile.

Modern paintings are like women, you’ll never enjoy them if you try to understand them.

My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies, Fairy tales of yesterday will grow but never die, I can fly, my friends.

We’re a bit flashy, but the music’s not one big noise.

In 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.

I dress to kill, but tastefully.

I’m just a musical prostitute, my dear.

It’s a beautiful day, the sun is shining, I feel good, and no one’s going to stop me now.

Everybody needs beauty, places to play in and pray in where nature may heal and cheer and give strength to the body and soul alike.

The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart.

I love my fans. They’re the most beautiful thing in the entire world for me. Every single thing I do is for them.

Hope is such a beautiful word, but it often seems very fragile. Life is still being needlessly hurt and destroyed.

One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.

When people see some things as beautiful, other things become ugly. When people see some things as good, other things become bad.

This most beautiful system of the sun, planets and comets, could only proceed from the counsel and dominion of an intelligent and powerful being.

It was my teacher’s genius, her quick sympathy, her loving tact which made the first years of my education so beautiful.
