Convictions, in the end, they can be dangerous, but a world without them is just kind of an awful kind of gray, amorphous mass.

More quotes by Bono
When you align yourself with God's purpose as described in the Scriptures, something special happens to your life.
Bono
Particularly conservative Christians, I was very angry that they were not involved more in the AIDS emergency.
Bono
There is a root arrogance in any writer a hugely arrogant assumption that anyone is going to listen to them.
Bono
In my view, the only thing worse than a rock star is a rock star with a conscience.
Bono
The strangest thing has happened. I really missed my dog. That's never happened to me before. You know, on a long tour you do hear people saying they miss their pets. I never have. But last night I started really missing my dog. It's very odd, 'cause I don't have a dog.
Bono
The human heart is greedy it will use religion, color, or any other excuse to justify its greed. Blame the human heart.
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
If you pour your life into songs, you want them to be heard. It's a desire to communicate. A deep desire to communicate inspires songwriting.
Bono
The fact is that ours is the first generation that can look disease and extreme poverty in the eye, look across the ocean to Africa, and say this, and mean it. We do not have to stand for this. A whole continent written off - we do not have to stand for this.
Bono
It's so sweet, I feel like my teeth are rotting when I listen to the radio.
Bono
We thought that we had the answers, it was the questions we had wrong.
Bono
I love America and I hate it. I'm torn between the two. I have two conflicting visions of America. One is a kind of dream landscape and the other is a kind of black comedy.
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
It's not a coincidence that in the Scriptures, poverty is mentioned more than 2,100 times. It's not an accident. That's a lot of air time, 2,100 mentions.
Bono
I wouldn't run for President. I wouldn't want to move to a smaller house.
Bono
I get to hear the really good or the really bad things in the press, but I don't read it. I can afford to say that because public opinion does not drive U2's audience.
Bono
Laughter is eternity if joy is real.
Bono
You know, God has some really weird kids, and I find it hard to be in their company most of the time.
Bono
I put Catholic guilt to work pretty good for a rich rock star.
Bono
Whenever I see grace, I’m moved.
Bono
