I married somebody who likes the way I look. If I changed my hair every year, and I reinvented myself in time-honoured pop fashion, I think understandably the person I'm married to would grow slightly sick of me.

More quotes by Robert Smith
I've always spent more time with a smile on my face than not, but the thing is, I don't write about it.
Robert Smith
I think, at heart, unless you discover faith in something else, something other, it's very hard to shake the thing that you're adrift alone.
Robert Smith
The idea of reinvention has always seemed bizarre to me.
Robert Smith
You can't drink on an eight hour flight, pass out, and then go onstage... well you can, but then you're Spandau Ballet.
Robert Smith
Hendrix was the first person I had come across who seemed completely free, and when you're nine or 10, your life is entirely dominated by adults. So he represented this thing that I wanted to be. Hendrix was the first person who made me think it might be good to be a singer and a guitarist - before that I wanted to be a footballer.

Cardinal rule for all hitters with two strikes on them: Never trust the umpire.
Robert Smith
If I put a value on my music, and no one's prepared to pay that, then more fool me, but the idea that the value is created by the consumer is an idiot plan it can't work.
Robert Smith
The further I get from the things that I care about, the less I care about how much further away I get.
Robert Smith
I still frequent my parents' house. I go there to escape, back to the bedroom that I grew up in. Just to sit there and feel small.
Robert Smith
A lot of journalists give me a hard time about how I look, but I've never met a journalist I'd rather look like.
Robert Smith
I became an adult in an extreme way. I was recently sorting some old photographs and I found another.
Robert Smith
Perhaps not as badly applied and not as obvious, but for thousands of years, people have worn makeup on stage.
Robert Smith
It's really nice meeting people after a concert. Still, it's very weird to be at the center of a group of 30 people all listening to what you're saying. When that group turns into 300 people, it goes on from weird. Some people revel in it, and I don't.
Robert Smith
Refusing to grow up is like refusing to accept your limitations. That's why I don't think we'll ever grow up.
Robert Smith
B is for Breasts Of which ladies have two Once prized for the function, Now for the view.
Robert Smith
I entirely approve the measures proposed by you in relation to the Marines who are lately captives in Tripoli. Therefore execute them.
Robert Smith
I'd rather spend my time looking at the sky than listening to Whitney Houston.
Robert Smith
For a period in the '90s, I felt that the Cure was massively undervalued. But there has been a paradigm shift. There's a bunch of newer bands coming up who've grown up listening to the Cure and don't understand that you're not supposed to like us.
Robert Smith
I don't care where the Cure is placed in the pantheon of rock. I don't care if we're perceived as relevant. We're never worried how we fit in. I don't even want to fit in.
Robert Smith
I think the rock'n'roll myth of living on the edge is a pile of crap.
