More quotes by 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
Image
If we're weird onstage, I don't know what you'd call the Tubes.
Freddie Mercury
Image
I won't be a rock star. I will be a legend.
Freddie Mercury
Image
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
Image
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
Image
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
Image
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.

If it's planned, it's boring
Freddie Mercury

I want it all and I want it now.

I want to ride my bicycle bicycle bicycle I want to ride my bicycle I want to ride my bike I want to ride my bicycle I want to ride it where I like... I don't believe in Peter Pan, Frankenstein or Superman All I wanna do is bicycle, bicycle, bicycle...
Freddie Mercury
Image
I want to lead the Victorian life, surrounded by exquisite clutter.
Freddie Mercury
Image
I never thought of myself as the leader. The most important person, perhaps.
Freddie Mercury
Image
The others don't like my interviews. And frankly, I don't care much for theirs.
Freddie Mercury
Image
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
Image
Who wants to live forever?
Freddie Mercury
Image
Can you imagine how terrible it is when you've got everything and you're still desperately lonely? That is awful beyond words.
Freddie Mercury
Image
By the way, I do not wear a hose. My hose is my own. No coke bottle, nothing stuffed down there.
Freddie Mercury
Image
In the early days, we just wore black onstage. Very bold, my dear. Then we introduced white, for variety, and it simply grew and grew.
Freddie Mercury
Image
I think Queen songs are pure escapism, like going to see a good film.
Freddie Mercury
Image
In terms of love, you're not in control and I hate that feeling. I seem to write a lot of sad songs because I'm a very tragic person. But there's always an element of humour at the end.
