More quotes by Elton John
We have a society where every hit maker and TV presenter is gay.
Elton John
I had a little Richard and that black piano, oh that sweet Georgia Peach, and the boy form Tupelo.
Elton John
It's getting late have you seen my mates, Ma tell me when the boys get here, It's seven o'clock and I want to rock, Want to get a belly full of beer...
Elton John
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
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 think religion has always tried to turn hatred towards gay people. Religion promotes the hatred and spite against gays. But there are so many Christian people I know who are gay and love their religion...
Elton John
There ain't been no angels in heaven around since God invented girls.
Elton John
And I agreed with that, and I couldn't wait to change my name anyway, because I'm not too fond of the name of Reginald. It's a very kind of '50s English name.
Elton John
I've got that resilient thing inside me. But I wasn't a happy bunny.
Elton John
I'm a very wealthy man.
Elton John
And there are men behind bars who pray for the light and there are men in the suburbs who pray for the night.
Elton John
Oh teacher, I need you like a little child, you got something in you to drive a school boy wild.
Elton John
Anyone who lip-synchs in public on stage when you pay 75 pounds to see them should be shot.
Elton John
Johnny, can't you come out to play in your empty garden?
Elton John
I just wish more of my fellow queers would come out sometimes. It's nice out here, you know?
Elton John
What we should be doing as musicians is trying to bring people together.
Elton John
I can't talk about - as eloquently as everyone else about a prevention or medicine or, you know, funding, but I can talk about the human element, which is the main part of AIDS, because it comes to the human being and how they are being treated, what medicines they are on and what medicines they are not on.
Elton John
You know, it's a very treatable disease. You shouldn't feel ashamed. But I'm afraid that's carried on very much so from the first days of AIDS, when it was basically a gay disease. And then, of course, you know, it affected everybody.
Elton John
As a child, as a teenager, I was kind of not allowed to wear fashionable clothes.
Elton John
I'm still as fascinated with the music business as ever. I'd love to do an electronic album like Prodigy or Underworld. I really like that sort of music.
