I've discovered special makeup by a company called M.A.C. You could wear it on the surface of the sun and it wouldn't move.

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

I lose myself in music because I can't be bothered explaining what I feel to anyone else around me.

I've got a Facebook page, but I've never put anything on it. I've got a presence on all the social networks, in fact, but I've never once sent a message. I'm there because, otherwise, someone's going to pretend to be me.

I don't want The Cure to fizzle out doing 45-minute shows of greatest hits. That would be awful for our legacy.

Image
There's no hope of me becoming completely relaxed on stage. If I did, I'd sit down and doze off.

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.

When you're on stage, the real world just drops away for that time. It's pretty intense.

Performing doesn't come that naturally to me, even though I've done it for years.

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.

My earliest memories are sitting on the beach at Blackpool, and I know that if I went back, it would be horrible. I know what Blackpool's like - it's nothing like I imagined it was as a child.

Whenever I'm home, I haven't got any makeup on. But even in the studio, before I do vocals, I put makeup on.

I do a job I really, really love and I kind of have fun with. People think you can't be grown up unless you're moaning about your job.

It's really easy to slide into a depression fueled by the pointlessness of existence.
Robert Smith
Image
Sometimes I'll get to the end of a song, open my eyes and there's all these faces peering at me. It's quite horrifying.
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 could write songs as bad as Wham's if I really felt the urge to, but what's the point?

I never answer if someone knocks on my door and only the band and my manager have my phone number. In any case my phone doesn't ring so I never notice it. I occasionally just walk past and pick it up to see if anyone's there.

I think that if you become a parent, you stop being a child, and your position in relation to your parents changes.
