I don't really belong to that world and I don't think anyone's going to miss me. I'm much happier just to write myself out of the script entirely.

More quotes by Phil Collins
That's going to be on my headstone: 'He came. He wrote 'In the Air Tonight.' He... died.'
Phil Collins
When you're young you want to show people what you can do, no matter what the cost. Whereas when you're older, and you realise that maybe a drum machine is better than you playing, then use the drum machine.
Phil Collins
All I set out to do was to earn a living playing drums, you know? And as luck would have it, I've surpassed that.
Phil Collins
I've got one of four known Davy Crocket rifles. It's fantastic just to know it's one of the rifles that he actually used. His cousin had it.
Phil Collins
It's actually come as quite a shock to learn just how many people don't like me.
Phil Collins
I just figured if I'm going to call myself a songwriter throughout my life, then writing for most genres of music is something I should at least attempt.
Phil Collins
I didn't become a commercially successful artist by design, and actually I think that commercially successful just means, if you analyse it, that a lot of people like you. It's become a dirty word, and I don't necessarily think it needs to be.
Phil Collins
There's something perverse isn't there, if you're playing in front of 100,000 people and there's 2000 people down the front who don't like, you think: what is it that they don't like?
Phil Collins
I prefer black music in general.
Phil Collins
My only saving grace is that I actually collect things that nobody else is interested in.
Phil Collins
Find a way to my heart, and I will always be with you.
Phil Collins
I suppose you can't take kids into consideration all the time, but I just wish there could be a bit of flexibility.
Phil Collins
This stupid sensitivity! But then women like sensitivity.
Phil Collins
When destiny calls you, you've got to be strong. I may not be with you, but you've got to move on.
Phil Collins
Perception determines insanity.
Phil Collins
I am stopping so I can be a full time father to my two young sons on a daily basis.
Phil Collins
And I would like to marry and have more children. I would like to try and do it right.
Phil Collins
No seriously... when there's families, you tend to go back to your room after the gig rather than go for a drink with the other guys. But there's always someone who's got something going, like the tour manager.
Phil Collins
Another time, we had three days off in Australia, so we went out of our way to fly to Ayres Rock.
Phil Collins
Of course you can't please everyone all the time. It's just something that I've got to get over, and I'm better at it now.
Phil Collins
