Each thing leapfrogs. I do a Genesis project - like now, we're just finishing off an album - and then by the time the album is doing its thing, I could do nothing or I could do a film.

More quotes by Phil Collins
I never stopped thinking about the Alamo from that day to this. I'm a huge collector of memorabilia. I've got Davy Crockett's bullet pouch. I've got Colonel Travis's belt.
Phil Collins
I am stopping so I can be a full time father to my two young sons on a daily basis.
Phil Collins
To be honest, producing records interests me less at the moment and I really don't want to get involved in album projects that are going to take up a lot of time
Phil Collins
I think I was the best drummer!
Phil Collins
You can wipe off that grin, I know where you've been, it's all been a pack of lies.
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
Prog rock, with a little good taste, is ok. I tried to bring some of it into this century, I guess.
Phil Collins
Perception determines insanity.
Phil Collins
Catering on planes, like on British Rail, is a standing joke, but I don't really have a problem with it. I don't quite know what people expect.
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
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
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.
Phil Collins
Things happen, but things happen and you follow... your heart is too dramatic, but you follow.
Phil Collins
I'm fascinated by what people will do to each other. Actually, I'm sort of interested in the gory details of life.
Phil Collins
They're the only ones brave enough to give me these opportunities [on being offered a soundtrack!]
Phil Collins
Beyond a certain point, the music isn't mine anymore. It's yours.
Phil Collins
If it's the beginning of something - like an album, I'm working on the lyrics and I take a walkman and headset.
Phil Collins
Before you write - remember that every speech has something of 'you' in the writing. Don't take that away when you write. Be yourself. Be comfortable in your own skin.
Phil Collins
The world is in your hands, now use it.
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
