I define my sexuality in terms of the people that I love.

[Music From the Edge of Heaven] wasn't really an album at all. The band had made the decision to release an LP and then split up. We wanted to go out with a bang in Britain and the rest of the world by having a single that was four songs, not just one song. But we couldn't do that over here because we couldn't release a single without an album.

You'd be surprised how young 25-year-old girls can sound when they want to scream. It isn't that young an audience, and it really frustrates me when I read the word prepubescent in my reviews. Even the ones that started following me with Wham! are in their late teens by now.

I don't like having my picture taken and I don't like looking at myself because I don't particularly like what I see.

It's the ones who resist that we most want to kiss, wouldn't you say?
George Michael
Image
[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.

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

I'm the luckiest writer on earth.

The most common misconception people have had in the past is about my own control and calculation of my career.
George Michael
Image
All we have to see is that I don't belong to you, and you don't belong to me.

Your political system is actually too democratic. The fact that Americans vote on every bill and proposition can prolong bigotry indefinitely, especially where it is aimed at minority groups.
George Michael

I am a political person, though not with a big P.

I don't really feel I deserve something if I haven't had to fight for it. It's not a conscious attitude, and it's stupid and wrong. Sometimes you do deserve things without having to put yourself through agony.
