Because of the media, the way the world is perceived is as a place where resources and time are running out. We’re taught that you have to grab what you can before it’s gone. It’s almost as if there isn’t time for compassion.

GEORGE MICHAELI just hope that I’ll stay around musically for as long as I can. I love to think that I will still be satisfying myself and other people as a musician until the day I die.
GEORGE MICHAELMy mother is much more musical, and by the time I started writing songs – by the time I was about 17 – she started to believe in me, musically.
GEORGE MICHAELTeacher, there are things that I don’t want to learn.
GEORGE MICHAELThe most common misconception people have had in the past is about my own control and calculation of my career.
GEORGE MICHAELFreedom. I will not give you up.
GEORGE MICHAELI went through a long period where I was afraid of doing things I wanted to do, and you get your courage back, which is what’s important.
GEORGE MICHAELI had my very first relationship at 27 because I really had not actually come to terms with my sexuality until I was 24.
GEORGE MICHAELI wouldn’t marry until I was ready to have children.
GEORGE MICHAELI think the media is a real demon.
GEORGE MICHAELMy mother pretty much used to go along with my dad in that she wanted me to get an education so that if this incredible dream I had didn’t work out, I would have something to fall back on.
GEORGE MICHAELI truly believed that tonight would never happen, that I would never sing these songs to you again. But then I’m a fool, which you’ve probably worked out by now.
GEORGE MICHAELI have been taken for a ride a couple of times. I’ve been hurt by people who I’ve had a 90 percent possibility of being hurt by.
GEORGE MICHAELI don’t want to look at other people my age in leather. Why would I put it on?
GEORGE MICHAELI suppose maybe if I had been an attractive child, I would have had less inclination to push my physical presence.
GEORGE MICHAELI can’t believe that I’ve written my best work yet. If I believed that, then I wouldn’t bother releasing music anymore.
