More quotes by Paul Weller

Image
In my old age, my mind gets more open, and I listen to so many different types of music and I guess that all reflects in my work.
Paul Weller
Image
I suppose I was much more serious-minded in the '70s and '80s.
Paul Weller
Image
I saw an interview with Keith Richards. He said, 'How else could a kid in Dartford suddenly connect with and understand what Muddy Waters is singing?' There's a cultural difference, but there's just something in that music that subconsciously or internally you just understand it just makes sense.
Paul Weller
Image
It's always good to play New York. The Apollo is a great gig. I loved that.
Paul Weller
Image
I could write songs about politics, but I'm conscious of not writing songs that sound the same as the ones I wrote 30 years ago.
Paul Weller
Image
I don't like the royal family, I don't like the establishment, I don't like the civil service.
Paul Weller
Image
In all honesty, I don't know what one song can change.
Paul Weller
Image
No man should have cowboys boots in his wardrobe. That's fair enough, isn't it? Unless you're a cowboy, of course.
Paul Weller
Image
There are areas of music that I've never been to before, so that's always nice thing to have in life. That there are other areas you haven't been to. You haven't covered all the ground, and there's plenty more uncharted territory to cover as well.
Paul Weller
Image
It's just something internal that says, 'I've got to do this now. This is what I'm doing now.'
Paul Weller
Image
I could say that 'Exile On Main Street' was my favourite or whatever, but I'm more about the songs and the artists and the sound that they bring.
Paul Weller
Image
Going to college was never an option. I was passionate about music, but how much talent I actually had was another matter.
Paul Weller
Image
I think part of what we do is there is a bit of dandy influence, always, or a little sprinkle of it. Not literal Savile Row dandy, but there's a bit of sartorial dandiness in everything that we do - every collection that we do.
Paul Weller
Image
There have been records I've been really, really pleased with that haven't connected with people. But I felt good about them.
Paul Weller
Image
It is nice to make a record and people like it, and it's encouraging.
Paul Weller
Image
An artist or writer always has to move forward. All the time you're trying to improve yourself, or at least look at ways to improve things or make things better. I'm not really one to harp on previous records. I'm always looking forward to what I'm doing now, and what's ahead.

In the past we used to come over to see what was going on in London or Paris or Milan or wherever - it's pretty much the same stuff everywhere [now], and people are wearing the same things, because it's all instantaneous with the Internet.
Paul Weller

A lot of young artists and musicians that we work with, you think they're gonna want to come in and buy the rock star-looking leather jacket - whatever it is that you think they're gonna want. They all want a suit. They want a tuxedo jacket, they want a suit. They don't want to look like their dad in it, but they want a suit.

If you're into a certain band, you're into the way they dress.

I love soul music, that's my real love in life and in whatever shape or form it is.
