More quotes by Phil Collins
That's the trouble with wishing you were somebody else. As much as you may want it, you know it'll never happen, at least not in this lifetime.
Phil Collins
I never said I was at the Alamo. Someone else said I was at the Alamo. Now I'm a nutter. I don't think that's fair.
Phil Collins
Find a way to my heart, and I will always be with you.
Phil Collins
I know it shouldn't make a difference, but crossing the dateline, we weren't sure what day it was - it was very strange. Now, I seem to cope with it better.
Phil Collins
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.
Phil Collins
And I would like to marry and have more children. I would like to try and do it right.
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
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 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.
Phil Collins
I am stopping so I can be a full time father to my two young sons on a daily basis.
Phil Collins
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.
Phil Collins
It's actually come as quite a shock to learn just how many people don't like me.
Phil Collins
There were 'big stars' at the Alamo! Bowie, Crockett! It is a huge political event because it, and the events at Goliad and San Jacinto, changed the look of a map of America. America would be a very different place if Texas had remained Mexican.
Phil Collins
The day Tarzan opened in London, I sat in a hotel room and discussed the project in detail.
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
I just don't think of myself as a star. This is what I do for a living I'm fortunate that I make ends meet.
Phil Collins
As I've got older, I've got more understanding of relationships and how they work - but every single relationship has different dynamics, so you can't paint everyone with the same colour.
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
As a writer, author, creator of something the fact that people are still interested, is fantastic.
Phil Collins
You leave a country, they stop playing you on the radio.
Phil Collins
