Cocaine made me talk forever. The most nonsensical rubbish that you could ever think of.
Elton John
Image
Oh teacher, I need you like a little child, you got something in you to drive a school boy wild.
Elton John
Image
Laughing like children, living like lovers, rolling like thunder, under the covers, and I guess that's why they call it the blues.
Elton John
Image
After claws and feathers, he took skin and bone, shaped it like an hour glass and made the angels moan.
Elton John
Image
I didn't have sex until I was 23 and that was with a man. I made up for lost time after that in a hurry. I wish I could have had sex when I was, like, 14, 15 or 16 because that's such an exciting age to have sex.

If there's a God in heaven, what's he waiting for? If He can't hear the children, then he must see the war.

They're [[harmaceuticals companies] just making a killing out of people's death. And they're benefiting by people's suffering. And I find that obscene. I find it ridiculous in this day and age, that that would happen. And it took President Clinton to go to rogue pharmaceutical companies to copy the antiretroviral drugs for a fraction of the cost.

It's very important to have two tiaras when you're on the road. You never know when you'll be invited to something really formal.
Elton John
Image
I used to take hostages in my relationships and not let people be independent. It always ended in disaster, because you take away people's identity and they end up full of resentment.
Elton John

Children are extremely important. They are the future of the world.
Elton John

Unless you show off you're not going to get noticed.
Elton John

He [Ryan White] had a kind of angelic aura about him. And his family, too, it's like, they are going through all this suffering, and I'm living this Life of Riley and I'm complaining about everything, and they are living this horrific life and complaining about nothing.
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
Image
I do work a lot. I mean, most of my income, I would say, comes from live performances. And then you've got publishing, you've got record royalties.
Elton John
Image
I heard Little Richard and Jerry Lee Lewis, and that was it. I didn't ever want to be anything else. I just started banging away and semi-studied classical music at the Royal Academy of Music but sort of half-heartedly.

Simon Cowell and I are great friends and we wind each other up. Rod Stewart and I do the same thing.
Elton John
Image
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
Image
I am such a Luddite when it comes to making music. All I can do is write at the piano.

My old man is drunker than a barrel full of monkeys, but my old lady she don't care.
