More quotes by Bono
I'm never nervous when I go to meet heads of state. I feel they should be nervous, because they are the ones who'll be held accountable for the lives their decisions will impact the most.
Bono
I have learned to interface - what I think would be the contemporary term - with various different lexicons, and people speak very different languages. I've learned to speak in a lot of tongues, and I can live with the bellicose language of some fervent, fire-breathing Christians, sure.
Bono
Hanging out with politicians and corporations is very unhip work. But I think that the U2 audience have turned out to be incredibly subtle in their understanding.
Bono
I wish to begin again on a daily basis. To be born again every day is something that I try to do. And I'm deadly serious about that.
Bono
The extraction of oil, coal and minerals brought, and still brings, a cost to the environment.
Bono
Every age has its massive moral blind spots. We might not see them, but our children will.
Bono
There's no retirement for an artist,its your way of living so theres no end to it.
Bono
I put Catholic guilt to work pretty good for a rich rock star.
Bono
Music can change the world because it can change people.
Bono
Where you live in the world should not determine whether you live in the world.
Bono
You see, Africa makes a fool of our idea of justice. It makes a farce of our idea of equality. It mocks our pieties. It doubts our concern. It questions our commitment. Because there is no way we can look at what's happening in Africa, and if we're honest, conclude that it would ever be allowed to happen anywhere else.
Bono
It's so sweet, I feel like my teeth are rotting when I listen to the radio.
Bono
My heroes are the ones who survived doing it wrong, who made mistakes, but recovered from them.
Bono
Smack in the centre of contradiction is the place to be.
Bono
So what we're talking about here is human rights. The right to live like a human. The right to live, period. And what we're facing in Africa is an unprecedented threat to human dignity and equality.
Bono
Stop asking God to bless what you're doing. Find out what God's doing. It's already blessed.
Bono
Music fills in for words a lot of the time when people don't know what to say, and I think music can be more eloquent than words.
Bono
I'm a singer, not a politician, and I think you don't want the two to get confused. It's not OK to be on CNN talking about people starving and then tell the interviewer that your new album is coming out in six months.
Bono
Technology is huge I wanted to learn about it. People might say that's odd, but I think it's odd if artists aren't interested in the world around them. I'm always chasing that.
Bono
The human heart is greedy it will use religion, color, or any other excuse to justify its greed. Blame the human heart.
Bono
