More quotes by George Michael
As I became George professionally and everyone called me George, Yog became the name that people who knew me from before started to use. It became more valuable to me.
George Michael
I have two sisters. My father is Greek and comes from a family of seven. My mother is English and comes from a family of five.
George Michael
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 do think that Live Aid (1985) (TV) was a great thing, it focused people, I think it showed young kids the way in many respects and I think a lot of people are still inspired by what happened in the mid-Eighties.
George Michael
I really have no plans for any kind of career in TV or anything, but if I wanted to become good at it, I could. But I don't really think it's in the cards.
George Michael
I mean, it is the perfect situation to really love someone to death and to want to rip their clothes off at the same time, isn't it?
George Michael
[My mother] is much more musical, and by the time I started writing songs - by the time I was about 17 - she started to believe in me, musically.
George Michael
I'd never touch anything. I think it's foolhardy to play around with the face that you've been given. To have a little snip or a tuck, I think, is really quite obscene.
George Michael
I find it too terrifying to go out in L.A.
George Michael
I also think I could probably repeat the commercial success whether I want to or not is a different matter. I think there is still better work inside me.
George Michael
The truth is my love life has been a lot more turbulent than I have let on.
George Michael
I find it difficult enough as it is to keep some kind of normality in my life. I enjoy this experience, but I don't know where I'm going to take my career.
George Michael
Even though it's become a really cliched thing to see musicians working for charity, it's still effective and it still has to be done.
George Michael
I'm a perfectionist. It's a big pain in the ass and it takes a lot of my time, but it really is going well and I have to do my own things.
George Michael
I'm surprised that I've survived my own dysfunction, really.
George Michael
Without despair, we will share, and the joys of caring will not be erased. What has been, must never end, the joys of caring will not be replace.
George Michael
The most common misconception people have had in the past is about my own control and calculation of my career.
George Michael
I'm not a great collaborator, to tell the truth.
George Michael
My American gay audience have continued to dance and sing to the music I make in a way that straight Americans haven't. I am grateful to them for that.
George Michael
I'm looking back to a period of my life when I was badly hurt and then looking at another time when I felt I had things going for me again, so I suppose there is a theme [of the Faith album].
