Freedom isn't to do what you want at somebody else's expense.

I always feel like a bit of an outsider myself, but as a working class lad, the system was always against me. The British system itself and then of course all the illnesses that were challenging to me.

I love Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart because they're bringing irony back into American humor, which is a delicious treat.

I'm not great at dealing with death, I have to say. I find death very hard: my mum, my dad, Sid Vicious. I'm not a monster I feel it and it scares me. One death at a time, please, is all my heart will bear.

Rules are important, but they're temporary and they're always supposed to be changed.

You're made to feel ugly, and I made ugly beautiful. Just by sheer persistence. Nobody has the right to say that I am ugly, and I will not be a professional victim, you know. Sorry!

I could never be a member of a single party. I want the best of all worlds, thank you.
