George Michael
You'll never find peace of mind until you listen to your heart.

George Michael
[My mother] pretty much used to go along with my dad in that she wanted me to get an education so that if this incredible dream I had didn't work out, I would have something to fall back on.
George Michael
I have to believe that somebody up there thinks I've still got some work to do.
George Michael
My parents both came from very poor working-class families.
George Michael
I thought [first girlfriend] was trying to make a fool out of me. Then I found out that she wasn't, and we went out. That's a very good example of how little confidence I had.
George Michael
I am really not interested or excited by repeating former successes.
George Michael
I always knew I was attractive to girls just from the point of view that they liked me.
