“My big brother still thinks he’s a better singer than me.”

I hated singing and getting up in front of crowds.

I have enough music coming out of my kids’ bedrooms when I’m at home.

I’ve never been more in love with anyone nearly half my age than I am today. I’d get married in a minute if I weren’t still married to somebody else.

There is this power that comes with being famous.

I’m gonna make love to you like fifteen men.

I have lived a great life. I am very happy.

Carrying 200 pounds of velvet and satin around a stage for 90 minutes – that’s man’s work, let me tell you.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned about women, which I try to pass on to my boys, it’s listening. Listen to the other side of the story first.

You can be with one of the most beautiful women in the world and still be unhappy.

The secret is to moisturize the face. I’ve been doing that since I was 17 years old. (on looking young)

I can definitely say the older I’ve got the better I’ve become at being a dad and a husband.

I’ll tell you what I love. Sending back bottles of wine that aren’t right in restaurants in France! Whoa! I love the French, but I do find their wine snobbery something unbearable.

Obviously, I haven’t really progressed that much at my craft.

Optimism is my best defense.

I did things with the microphone stand that no-one else has attempted to do.

You shouldn’t be in the music business if you’re posing.

I am a mess of insomnia, broken promises, and better tomorrows that never came.

That would be a good thing for them to cut on my tombstone: Wherever she went, including here, it was against her better judgment.

Better and safer is an assured peace than a victory hoped for. The one is in your own power, the other is in the hands of the gods.

All of us at Juventus agreed Manchester United were the best side we met in the Champions League. They have so many talented young players and can only get better and better. Giggs is truly world class.

A certain peace is better and safer than a victory in prospect; the former is at your own disposal, the latter depends upon the gods.

A grateful dog is better than an ungrateful man.

America is a country founded on guns. It’s in our DNA. It’s very strange but I feel better having a gun. I really do. I don’t feel safe, I don’t feel the house is completely safe, if I don’t have one hidden somewhere. That’s my thinking, right or wrong.

Resistance to criminal rashness comes better late than never.
