More quotes by Freddie Mercury
I think my melodies are superior to my lyrics.
Freddie Mercury
The bigger the better in everything.
Freddie Mercury
I like people to go away from a Queen show feeling fully entertained, having had a good time.
Freddie Mercury
I never thought of myself as the leader. The most important person, perhaps.
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
I never carry money, just like the real Queen. If I fancy something in a shop I always ask someone on our staff to buy it.
Freddie Mercury
I got my diploma from Ealing College of Art, in graphics and illustration.
Freddie Mercury
The others don't like my interviews. And frankly, I don't care much for theirs.
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
What will I be doing in twenty years' time? I'll be dead, darling! Are you crazy?
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
One year of love is better than a lifetime alone.
Freddie Mercury
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.
Freddie Mercury
I'm a Freddie Mercury fan. (In response to an interviewer backstage at a Queen concert at the LA Forum, who asked: Can I tell my viewers that Michael Jackson is a Queen fan?
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
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
If it's planned, it's boring
Freddie Mercury
Is Billy Idol just doing a bad Elvis pout, or was he born that way?
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
They wouldn't let us into Russia. They thought we'd corrupt the youth or something.
