More quotes by Freddie Mercury
Who wants to live forever?
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
What you must understand is that my voice comes from the energy of the audience. The better they are, the better I get.
Freddie Mercury
I don't like the way my teeth protrude. I'm going to have them done, but I just haven't had the time. Apart from that... I'm perfect.
Freddie Mercury
The bigger the better in everything.
Freddie Mercury
I got my diploma from Ealing College of Art, in graphics and illustration.
Freddie Mercury
I think Queen songs are pure escapism, like going to see a good film.
Freddie Mercury
I never thought of myself as the leader. The most important person, perhaps.
Freddie Mercury
I love the fact that I can make people happy, in any form. Even if it’s just an hour of their lives, if I can make them feel lucky or make them feel good, or bring a smile to a sour face, that to me is worthwhile.
Freddie Mercury
Does it mean this, does it mean that, that's all anybody wants to know. I'd say what any decent poet would say if anyone dared ask him to analyze his work: if you see it, darling, then it's there!
Freddie Mercury
The lavish presentation appeals to me, and I've got to convince the others.
Freddie Mercury
You know, I designed the Queen crest. I simply combined all the creatures that represent our star signs-and I don't even believe in astrology.
Freddie Mercury
By the way, I do not wear a hose. My hose is my own. No coke bottle, nothing stuffed down there.
Freddie Mercury
If we're weird onstage, I don't know what you'd call the Tubes.
Freddie Mercury
I'm possessed by love - but isn't everybody?
Freddie Mercury
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
About ten years ago, I knew three chords on the guitar. Now, in 1982, I know three chords on the guitar.
Freddie Mercury
Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Caught in a landslide, No escape from reality. Open your eyes, Look up to the skies and see, I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy, Because I'm easy come, easy go, Little high, little low, Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me.
Freddie Mercury
Jimi Hendrix is very important. He's my idol. He sort of epitomizes, from his presentation on stage, the whole works of a rock star. There's no way you can compare him. You either have the magic or you don't. There's no way you can work up to it. There's nobody who can take his place.
Freddie Mercury
They wouldn't let us into Russia. They thought we'd corrupt the youth or something.
