Quote

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.

I'd like to record somewhere really different. Rent a really big house and get a mobile in and set up in the dining room. Maybe New England it'd be nice in September or October.

I wouldn't want to think people doted on us, hung on every word, or wanted to look like us.

Image
I've never regretted not having children. My mindset in that regard has been constant. I objected to being born, and I refuse to impose life on someone else.
Robert Smith
Image
I just don't feel comfortable anymore with the kind of attention that I'm getting. It's purely the numbers of people that want a bit of the Cure or want a bit of me.

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.

I became an adult in an extreme way. I was recently sorting some old photographs and I found another.

I have never liked Morrissey, and I still don't. I think it's hilarious, actually, what things I've heard about him, what he's really like, and his public persona is so different. He's such an actor.

I could write songs as bad as Wham's if I really felt the urge to, but what's the point?
Robert Smith
Image
There may be said to be three sorts of lawyers, able, unable, and lamentable.
Robert Smith
Image
I don't want The Cure to fizzle out doing 45-minute shows of greatest hits. That would be awful for our legacy.
Robert Smith
Image
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
Image
I lose myself in music because I can't be bothered explaining what I feel to anyone else around me.
Robert Smith
Image
I'm in the strange position of the world drifting away from me, but you know what? I'm actually quite content with that. It doesn't bother me in the slightest. I don't feel like, 'Oh God, I'm being left behind.'

I'd rather spend my time looking at the sky than listening to Whitney Houston.

I don't think of death in a romantic way anymore.
Robert Smith
Image
I've always spent more time with a smile on my face than not, but the thing is, I don't write about it.

It's better to forget than remember me and cry.
