More quotes by Chris Martin
I don't speak particularly well. That's one of the consequences of being extremely ugly.
Chris Martin
I have my moments - usually twice every album - when I basically lose it.
Chris Martin
All the children of America, up to age seven or eight or nine or ten - they're really great artists. So here we've got this amazing work that very few people pay any attention to, and it's not valued by the culture.
Chris Martin
Being such a big band is never a problem but it can be distracting.
Chris Martin
I don't actually own a car.
Chris Martin
Some people are into bondage... and some people are into crossdressing.. . and some people are into Coldplay. It's okay, I don't mind being a fetish.
Chris Martin
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.
Chris Martin
I don't mind not being cool.
Chris Martin
A band's only unique thing is its chemistry, especially if none of you are prodigious players or particularly handsome. The one thing you have is your uniqueness, so we hold on to that.

I've had tinnitus for about ten years, and since I started protecting my ears it hasn't got any worse - touch wood.
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
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
Although it's painful at the time, most of the things that people have said about us negatively - some of them are true and you can work on them, and the ones that you don't agree with, you don't work on.
Chris Martin
It's difficult when you're successful, to admit that you need help.
Chris Martin
The most extravagant thing I've ever bought is 95 tops all the same.
Chris Martin
Before our albums are released I feel like we still own it, that we have control over our music. But once it's out there in the world it's no longer ours.
Chris Martin
Men should always change diapers. It's a very rewarding experience. It's mentally cleansing. It's like washing dishes, but imagine if the dishes were your kids, so you really love the dishes.
Chris Martin
The goal is to try and make the perfect song. Which of course will never happen.
Chris Martin
I get more people approaching me about how good I was in 'Napoleon Dynamite' than being in Coldplay.
