Freddie Mercury
The most important thing is to live a fabulous life. As long as it's fabulous I don't care how long it is.
Freddie Mercury
I am a romantic, but I do put up a barrier around myself, so it is hard for people to get in and to know the real me
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
About ten years ago, I knew three chords on the guitar. Now, in 1982, I know three chords on the guitar.
Freddie Mercury
I like people to go away from a Queen show feeling fully entertained, having had a good time.
Freddie Mercury
