More quotes by 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
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
When you're in a young band for the first time, geographically you're in the same place and you tend to go out and socialize. You play more shows, you spend more time together. You're a unit. As you grow older, inevitably you develop a life outside the band. I think it would be tragic if you didn't.
Robert Smith
I'm not a morose person it's just that my best songs reflect on the sadder aspects of life.
Robert Smith
I'd rather spend my time looking at the sky than listening to Whitney Houston.
Robert Smith
I could write songs as bad as Wham's if I really felt the urge to, but what's the point?
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
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
In all relationships, there are always aching holes and that's where the impossible wishes come into it.
Robert Smith
I think that if you become a parent, you stop being a child, and your position in relation to your parents changes.
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
Cardinal rule for all hitters with two strikes on them: Never trust the umpire.
Robert Smith
B is for Breasts Of which ladies have two Once prized for the function, Now for the view.
Robert Smith
I'm not going to worry about the Cure slipping down into the second division it doesn't bother me because I never expected to be in the first division anyway
Robert Smith
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.
Robert Smith
You don't really know a song until you play it live.
Robert Smith
It's a perfect day for letting go.
Robert Smith
I started out in the 'Cure' reflecting things that I thought were important, and it's reached a point where it takes over and becomes the thing that is important.
Robert Smith
When you're on stage, the real world just drops away for that time. It's pretty intense.
Robert Smith
I really enjoy what I do, and who I'm with and where I am. Having said that, I'm not really a person of habit, because what I do in my job is travel around the world and play concerts to people, and occasionally do very weird things.
