[My father] was more than apprehensive. He didn't think I stood a chance in hell. He had no confidence in me whatsoever and was convinced that I was going to be coming to him for money when I was 40. We argued about it constantly.

More quotes by George Michael
People have speculated about my sexuality for years and years. They are obviously interested in my sex life. Fine. Let them speculate. I'm not going to put them right one way or the other.
George Michael
Playing with Queen was the biggest moment of my career. It was like living a childhood fantasy.
George Michael
I would advise any gay person that being out in the real sense can never happen too soon.
George Michael
I hope it really comes off. It would make my dad really proud. (about the song for the coming 2004 Summer Olympic Games in Athens, Greece)
George Michael
[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.
George Michael
My parents both came from very poor working-class families.
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
It does bother me when they [tabloids] drag friends of mine into it and talk about them and lie about them. My friends have no part in it they're not celebrities, so why should they have to accept the downside of celebrity? That worries me for a bit.
George Michael
We [with Andrew Ridgeley] were getting so much attention and achieving such success. It never really bothered me.
George Michael
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.
George Michael
You couldn't release the single on its own, because no one wanted it.
George Michael
The truth is my love life has been a lot more turbulent than I have let on.
George Michael
The Wham! thing was, as I said, very confusing, and much of our image was totally fake.
George Michael
I have the audience I deserve. Or at least I have the audience that represents the kind of people that I like.
George Michael
We always talked [with Andrew Ridgeley] about when it would happen - we always knew that I would go on to have a solo career.
George Michael
I have to believe that somebody up there thinks I've still got some work to do.
George Michael
I have no doubt that the music I release next will be better.
George Michael
I have never thought about my sexuality being right or wrong. To me it has always been a case of finding the right person.
George Michael
In the rest of the world we had had two albums that were successful, so those two albums' hits and this new four-single package made up an album called Wham! The Final, which is basically greatest hits. We couldn't have done a greatest hits over here, because we'd only done one hit album.
George Michael
I don't want to look at other people my age in leather. Why would I put it on?
George Michael
