More quotes by Elton John
You should never take more than you give
Elton John
I'll even pay sometimes for a woman that's ugly.
Elton John
Jesus wanted us to be loving and forgiving.
Elton John
What record companies do these days is drain the blood dry of an album, take six singles off it, and harm the longevity of artists' careers by doing it.
Elton John
I do like Britney Spears. I think she's cute. I think she's fun. And I like her records. You know, I'm not a pop snob whatsoever. I think she makes great pop records.
Elton John
I've got that resilient thing inside me. But I wasn't a happy bunny.
Elton John
I just wish more of my fellow queers would come out sometimes. It's nice out here, you know?
Elton John
I love to work. It fascinates me. And I love seeing who's coming up, who's got the charisma to last, who's got the intelligence to move on to other things. I'm so glad now that I'm stuck behind the piano, because when you're getting older it's very hard to waddle around the stage.
Elton John
I am such a Luddite when it comes to making music. All I can do is write at the piano.
Elton John
I'm going to fight for human rights, whether I do it silently behind the scenes or vocally so that I get locked up. I can't just sit back it's not in my nature. I can't sit back and blindly ignore it, and I won't.
Elton John
You can cage the songbird, but you can't make her sing. And you can trap the free bird, but you'll have to clip her wings.
Elton John
I'm a very wealthy man.
Elton John
Chefs aren't celebrities: they're chefs.
Elton John
I didn't really know what I was until I came to America and I had sex [for the first time] in San Francisco in 1970. It was with someone of my own sex.
Elton John
Well, I've had my fair share in Britain of battling the tabloids.
Elton John
Johnny, can't you come out to play in your empty garden?
Elton John
And the stigma hasn't really changed that much in 31 years. You are still getting people - it's a shame-based disease. It's based on sexual transmission. And it's still shame-based. And until people feel strong enough and feel loved enough to actually open up and say, listen, I'm HIV-positive, then we are facing an uphill battle.
Elton John
I've always enjoyed and loved playing live. I relish and cherish it more than anything else because you never know what the performance is going to be.
Elton John
I want to do a musical movie. Like Evita, but with good music.
Elton John
Make this man a saint now, OK?
Elton John
