Anyone who criticises me for talking about fair trade is a few pebbles short of a beach. Because everyone should care about it, just like everyone should care about the environment, because we all live here.

More quotes by Chris Martin
I think that the fact that a relationship becomes public is a bit of a bummer. Because it can distract from the real reason why you're together, which is that you just like each other.
Chris Martin
I have to brush my teeth before I go on stage otherwise I don't feel smart enough.
Chris Martin
I get more people approaching me about how good I was in 'Napoleon Dynamite' than being in Coldplay.
Chris Martin
When you're on your fifth album, you are going to be judged against all your previous work and expectations.
Chris Martin
I just want to make the best music of all time with my best friends.
Chris Martin
I'm competitive with anyone who writes a good song - I don't care if it's a band or solo artist or whoever.
Chris Martin
As an artist, one doesn't know what is real. And so there's a search and a process of trying to locate something that feels or appears or somehow resonates with us on a deeper level. This is why art is such an interesting business to be in.
Chris Martin
You can sometimes get your own feelings across more strongly if you pretend that you're singing it from someone else's angle. But it's always from me. It's just a new way of framing it.
Chris Martin
I don't mind not being cool.
Chris Martin
When I'm 40, too old to be a rock star, I plan to go back to college to study classical music.
Chris Martin
The word spirit comes from the Latin word for breath - spiritu - and the origin of the word spirituality has to do with breath and life force, the mysteries of the ancients and all this. The word is very suspect in much of the art world - the Western art world. Certainly, spirituality has become divorced from religious.
Chris Martin
Life is beautiful in all it's colors, even the darker ones, they're here for a reason.
Chris Martin
I think it's part of being English, particularly if you are middle-class - you're always looking to be reminded that you are no good and you are always actually embarrassed about being successful.
Chris Martin
Everyone asks me about being so worried or thinking about existence as if I'm the only person who can't understand why a tree grows the way it does or why a person is in power when they're not that great. These are questions everyone has.
Chris Martin
Cool to me is following what you believe in.
Chris Martin
I'd get sent home from the first audition of So You Think You Can Dance. My dancing is sort of controlled spasms. I fully accept it might appear ridiculous. But it's passionate!
Chris Martin
Being such a big band is never a problem but it can be distracting.
Chris Martin
Everything that's happening to you, is what's suppose to be happening to you. So just relax.
Chris Martin
You gotta wear the right trousers if you're gonna be a rock star.
Chris Martin
I don't drink, I don't take drugs, I don't smoke.
