Quote

I spent the last week of Ryan's life in Indiana, Indianapolis, with Jeanne and Andrea, Jeanne, his mother, Andrea, his sister, and some other beautiful people who came. And it taught me a lesson.

I had to learn how to function as a human being. And I really enjoyed that process.
Elton John

I just think you shouldn't expect people to pay money to see someone sing live and then lip-synch.

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
Image
I just wish more of my fellow queers would come out sometimes. It's nice out here, you know?

And these [pharmaceutical] companies are still threatening to sue. And it's like, you know, do you not have a conscience? Do you not want the world to be a better place? You're still making a profit. How much more of a profit do you want to make?

I'm glad I've given up drugs and alcohol. It would be awful to be like Keith Richards. He's pathetic. It's like a monkey with arthritis, trying to go onstage and look young.

I get upset when people knock hip-hop, because I can absolutely see the musicality in it. These days, when I'm listening to records by hip-hop artists, I hear the production. It's just astounding how great the productions have become.

She's got electric boots, a mohair suit, you know I read it in a magazine.

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.

What a scandal, if I die. Yeah, I'm gonna kill myself, get a little headline news.
Elton John

It was Elvis that got me interested in music. I've been an Elvis fan since I was a kid.

Cocaine made me talk forever. The most nonsensical rubbish that you could ever think of.
Elton John

I'm cold as a razor blade, inches from madness.

Oh teacher, I need you like a little child, you got something in you to drive a school boy wild.

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.

I tour as many countries as possible, and I've toured every state in America, plus every province in Canada.

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.

I don't want a Jennifer Lopez wedding or anything like that. A commitment ceremony would be a nice thing to do.

I am the most well-known homosexual in the world.
