More quotes by Chris Martin
Rihanna is mysterious and fascinating
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
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
Nothing matters except life and the love you make.
Chris Martin
If someone thinks I'm a dickhead, fine, listen to someone else's record, then. We're not a totalitarian regime no one's forced to listen to Coldplay. It's actually quite a compliment if you're something that people can stand against.
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
Cool to me is following what you believe in.
Chris Martin
If your wife went out with Brad Pitt, you'd want to prove yourself, you know what I mean?
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
Celebrity culture has gone crazy, and I think the reason is that real news is just not bearable, and it also seems impossible to change anything.
Chris Martin
Record sales don't really mean anything. For us, the pressure is imagining some 15-year-old kid in Cincinnati who buys our album and doesn't feel like he wasted his pocket money.
Chris Martin
I don't actually own a car.
Chris Martin
So I have probably 1,200 little bits of paper with notes, which when the Ambien really starts to kick in, don't really make much sense. Say what you like about prescription drugs, but they do help when you're sequencing a record.
Chris Martin
It's difficult when you're successful, to admit that you need help.
Chris Martin
Life is beautiful in all it's colors, even the darker ones, they're here for a reason.
Chris Martin
We rely more on enthusiasm than actual skill. Whatever you do, do it enthusiastically and people will like it more.
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
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.
Chris Martin
Everything in my life is a fragile decision that somebody else made.
Chris Martin
I've either got an acute case of hypochondria or I'm falling apart at the age of twenty-three.
Chris Martin
