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

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.

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.

I've always spent more time with a smile on my face than not, but the thing is, I don't write about it.

There were only two times in my life when I've actually felt down about things and gotten myself into a full mental mess. One of the times was in 1982. I had a horrible time for a few months and felt pretty desperate. Then again in 1984, for various reasons, not all of them within my control. Since then, I just wander in and out of black moods.

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.

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 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.

I think the rock'n'roll myth of living on the edge is a pile of crap.

It's only people that aren't goths that think the Cure are a goth band.

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.

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.

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

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