Excess is part of my nature. Dullness is a disease. I really need danger and excitement. I'm never scared of putting myself out on a limb.
Freddie Mercury
If I didn't do this well, I just wouldn't have anything to do... I can't cook, and I'd be a terrible housewife.
Freddie Mercury
And, we have no such thing as a budget anymore. Our manager freaks when we show him the bill. We're lavish to the bone, but all our money goes back into the product.
Freddie Mercury
The lavish presentation appeals to me, and I've got to convince the others.
Freddie Mercury
Modern paintings are like women, you'll never enjoy them if you try to understand them.
