More quotes by Elton John
In my 20s I was so ignorant about drugs, and so naive. I mean, my band was smoking marijuana for years I didn't even know what a joint was. And I'd never seen a line of cocaine in my life. And I don't know whether it was bravado or - OK, I'll join in. But my stupidity, I had a line of coke, and that started the whole process.

Elton John
Tina Turner gave me the highway blues.
Elton John
There is nothing wrong with going to bed with someone of your own sex. People should be very free with sex, they should draw the line at goats.
Elton John
I love people who expect me to wear great, feathery costumes- and I do it. It's like an actor getting into his costume for his part. I don't really feel that part until I'm into whatever I'm going to wear.
Elton John
I rarely wear tennis shoes. I'm 5' 8', I hate being short.
Elton John
If you write great songs with meaning and emotion, they will last for ever because songs are the key to everything.
Elton John
I have a lot of money stashed away, but I do live my life from day to day.
Elton John
I had a little Richard and that black piano, oh that sweet Georgia Peach, and the boy form Tupelo.
Elton John
I'm a very wealthy man.
Elton John
Basically, I wanted redemption for the way I lived my life beforehand, and that was the drugs, the drink, the loose sex, whatever.
Elton John
People with HIV are still stigmatized. The infection rates are going up. People are dying. The political response is appalling. The sadness of it, the waste.
