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.

The binding of reason and intuition is the fundamental crisis of the era we call humanity. Transcedence of duality is the key.

I'm much happier just to write myself out of the script entirely.

You'll regret the day you ever messed with Philadelphia Collins and sons

We're all turkeys! Some of us are running around with our heads cut off, some of us are flapping our wings that hard we're close to flying. But nothing is an eagle bar God.

I don't want to preach, but I really think the rudiments are very important to developing your drumming skills. Many of the patterns I've recorded came from things like paradiddles, flam paradiddles, flam triplets... They might be boring to sit down and practice, but not when you apply them to the drums.

Often there's a BA crew, because half the time we stay at the same hotels, especially in Australia. I can remember spending quite a lot of time with crews around the pool there. They always make themselves known to us.

Everything has added up to a load that I'm getting tired of carrying. It's gotten so complicated. It's the three failed marriages, and having kids that grew up without me, and it's the personal criticism, of being Mr. Nice Guy, or of divorcing my wife by fax, all that stuff, the journalism, some of which I find insulting.

When children see Michael Jackson they see a human being. When adults see him they see money.

That's going to be on my headstone: 'He came. He wrote 'In the Air Tonight.' He... died.'

Deep inside us we're not that different at all.

If it's the beginning of something - like an album, I'm working on the lyrics and I take a walkman and headset.

It's actually come as quite a shock to learn just how many people don't like me.

They're the only ones brave enough to give me these opportunities [on being offered a soundtrack!]

Put your faith in what you most believe in.

I can't play anywhere near like I used to, and I was a hot drummer. It doesn't bother me, because frankly, if you get to that point where you can't hold a drumstick properly, there are many other things in life which are far more important, like cutting a loaf of bread or a piece of cheese.

I am stopping so I can be a full time father to my two young sons on a daily basis.

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?
