More quotes by 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

Freddie Mercury
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
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
Is Billy Idol just doing a bad Elvis pout, or was he born that way?
Freddie Mercury
I want to lead the Victorian life, surrounded by exquisite clutter.
Freddie Mercury
I won't be a rock star. I will be a legend.
Freddie Mercury
What will I be doing in twenty years' time? I'll be dead, darling! Are you crazy?
Freddie Mercury
