More quotes by Brian May

Brian May
I had this idea... I wanted the sound to sing and have that thickness but yet still have an edge so that it could articulate. So my dad and I designed the guitar... the one that was made from an old fireplace.
Brian May
There are a lot of things in Queen albums that you don't expect that's why we threw them in
Brian May
My big hobby is photography. I collect stereo photographs from the 19th century.
Brian May
My children hate me being such a big star. It's very hard for them to have a father who is always in the public eye.
Brian May
Everybody thought I was a bit of an eccentric for wanting to be out there looking at the stars, but I still do
Brian May
I'd put a lot of work into playing guitar and was thinking I was pretty damn good. But Hendrix came along and destroyed everyone.
