It's always been easy with Mark, he's a rock fan and we speak the same language. He's a big Beatles fan too. We worked a lot via CLI calls, though only meeting up once every couple of months.

More quotes by Phil Collins
Beyond a certain point, the music isn't mine anymore. It's yours.
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
Many people think of me as a perfectionist, someone who polishes and shines each song and performance. I've always been bothered by that assumption.
Phil Collins
You know, a song is like a kid. You bring it up. And sometimes something you thought was going to be fantastic, by the time it's finished, is a bit of a disappointment...Beyond a certain point, the music isn't mine anymore. It's yours.
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 suppose Phil Collins offers something for everybody, and in hipdom that's not cool. But in the real world, there's no shame in that at all.
Phil Collins
I'm much happier just to write myself out of the script entirely.
Phil Collins
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.
Phil Collins
And I would like to marry and have more children. I would like to try and do it right.
Phil Collins
Put your faith in what you most believe in.
Phil Collins
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.
Phil Collins
Find a way to my heart, and I will always be with you.
Phil Collins
The binding of reason and intuition is the fundamental crisis of the era we call humanity. Transcedence of duality is the key.
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
Love can make you do things that you never thought possible
Phil Collins
It's actually come as quite a shock to learn just how many people don't like me.
Phil Collins
Prog rock, with a little good taste, is ok. I tried to bring some of it into this century, I guess.
Phil Collins
I used to go to my local pub and it was like a sanctuary, nobody dared ask for an autograph. You went in there for a ploughman's and a pint, and you went home and watched TV. Believe me, there's more to watch on British TV than American, except for CNN right now. But yeah, I miss it.
Phil Collins
Deep inside us we're not that different at all.
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
