More quotes by Paul Weller
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
The whole nostalgia thing, and just sticking with what you always liked and what you know and not taking a chance on something or expanding. I think especially after a certain age.
Paul Weller
I suppose I was much more serious-minded in the '70s and '80s.
Paul Weller
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
I think anybody goes through a crisis of confidence from time to time. You have to kind of doubt yourself, sometimes. It's the way forward.
Paul Weller
It is nice to make a record and people like it, and it's encouraging.
Paul Weller
I love soul music, that's my real love in life and in whatever shape or form it is.
Paul Weller
I'm still a mod, I'll always be a mod, you can bury me a mod.
Paul Weller
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.
Paul Weller
It's always good to play New York. The Apollo is a great gig. I loved that.
Paul Weller
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
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.
Paul Weller
Going to college was never an option. I was passionate about music, but how much talent I actually had was another matter.
Paul Weller
If you take skinny jeans - skinny jeans didn't just happen in the US, they were happening in Japan, they were happening in the UK, they were happening everywhere. Some places a little faster than others. But, if we look at our best sellers in this store, they're the same best sellers that we have in the States.
Paul Weller
Even somebody like The Black Keys or Royal Blood, they all have this original roots base to what they do.
Paul Weller
I never get too many problems. You can never please everyone anyway, obviously. And some people take the easy route and just play the greatest hits, and their audience is happy to hear that as well, and that's fine, but it wouldn't please me. But it doesn't trouble me.
Paul Weller
I think the world is really small today, and fashion, from that end of it, it's instantaneous everywhere.
Paul Weller
I have to do what I'm doing at the time. That's the most important thing. You might lose some people along the way, and you might gain other people on the way, that's just the way it is. But nevertheless, if you're driven by something, there is no argument about it that's what you have to do.
Paul Weller
I wanted to make a record that sounded like a continous piece
Paul Weller
Sometimes you're ahead of the game and sometimes people don't get it and that's just one of those things you have to accept and carry on.
Paul Weller
