We see differences in people and seem to be afraid of people. The black or white or gay or straight - I don't necessarily look for differences but for similarities. We need to be looking out for each other.

More quotes by James Blunt
Sometimes, reading my own media, the negativity can upset me, but I just deal with things on a positive basis. I mean, I have up to 20,000 people singing my words back to me on a nightly basis - they share my hopes and fears, and they relate to my own life experiences. Life can be pretty isolating, but that connection is always amazing.
James Blunt
The song is about love, life, fear and hope... and more than anything, you... and me...
James Blunt

James Blunt
I always wanted to be a Muppet. So when 'Sesame Street' approached me to guest star, I thought: 'I'm going to be on this!' It's pretty incredible stuff.
James Blunt
Being British, I don't really have a way of expressing myself in conversation. Music transcends language.
James Blunt
No matter whether you are black or white, man or woman, gay or straight, Christian, Muslim, or Jew, we all share the same emotions, the same human condition.
James Blunt
I don't think I picked up the guitar in the first place as a way of getting women. There are probably better ways of doing it.
James Blunt
Honestly if men are given a choice, we'll choose everything.
James Blunt
I am a dreamer but when I wake, you can't break my spirit, it's my dreams you take
James Blunt
I guess if you're stupid enough to join the army without thinking about getting shot at, then you really are a fool.
James Blunt
It's taken a long time but eventually when I had the songs in place and demos right and I found myself a manager, that's when everything started happening quickly but I think that's always the way it is.
James Blunt
I have been told by people that I should not be seen clubbing with good-looking women, but I can't see why not. Why be a pop star otherwise?
James Blunt
I think the things that make me excited are only best when they're shared with people.
James Blunt
I try to read everything that I can about myself because Saddam Hussein didn't read his reviews and he thought he was winning!
