More quotes by Elton John
I have an optimistic view of everything. You have to, otherwise you'd go nuts.
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
I grew up conservative because my mum was a conservative, and when I finally realized what conservatives were, I changed my mind immediately.
Elton John
Better to build a bridge than a wall.
Elton John
Nothing should be an issue when it comes to sexuality in the first place. Music is the one artform where people feel comfortable coming out.
Elton John
And there's no guarantee that if you get HIV and you take these triple therapies, or whatever comes along next, that they're going to be successful for you.
Elton John
I don't think you can recreate anything from the past. You can not do it. If you're going to go out and imitate a Motown sound, you can't do it, it's impossible because of the studios and players involved and the atmosphere.
Elton John
I'm 57, I can't look like a 30-year-old. You try to hold age at bay, but there comes a point when you just have to give up gracefully.
Elton John
We have a society where every hit maker and TV presenter is gay.
Elton John
I really appreciate my performing so much better, as I get older. I don't take it for granted anymore. I really relish it and love it.
Elton John
If you're stuck at piano and you're not a lead guitarist or a lead vocalist, you're kind of at a nine-foot plank then and you should do something about it.
Elton John
You get the same equal rights that we do when we have a civil partnership. Heterosexual people get married. We can have civil partnerships.
Elton John
I am such a Luddite when it comes to making music. All I can do is write at the piano.
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 don't have to compete in the charts. I can just be myself as a musician, a songwriter and play with the musicians that I really love.
Elton John
Shock waves to a tired brain, sends that hungry lady to my door again. She's my shelter from the storm when I feel the rain, entertaining white powder.
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
Top dog, top hat, move that muscle, move that fat.
Elton John
You and your oven are capable of great things,Remember, no two ovens are the same.
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.
