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'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.

When you're on stage, the real world just drops away for that time. It's pretty intense.
Robert Smith
Image
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
Image
I could write songs as bad as Wham's if I really felt the urge to, but what's the point?
Robert Smith
Image
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.

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

I entirely approve the measures proposed by you in relation to the Marines who are lately captives in Tripoli. Therefore execute them.

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.
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.

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

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

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.

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.

No, come to think of it, I don't think the Cure will end, but I can make up an ending if you want me to.

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

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.
