Brian May
You want to go in the steam bath to get your vocals sounding well, but you don't want your fingers to get soft.
Brian May

Brian May
It's wonderful for me to see what 'We Will Rock You' has done. 'We Will Rock You' and 'We Are the Champions' have kind of transcended the normal framework of where music is listened to and appreciated - they've become part of public life, which I feel wonderful about.
Brian May
Astronomy's much more fun when you're not an astronomer
Brian May

Brian May
Einstein got most of the things right about black holes. I'm not an expert, I must admit
Brian May
