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.

More quotes by Robert Smith
You don't really know a song until you play it live.
Robert Smith
You can't drink on an eight hour flight, pass out, and then go onstage... well you can, but then you're Spandau Ballet.
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
Cardinal rule for all hitters with two strikes on them: Never trust the umpire.
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.
Robert Smith
When you're on stage, the real world just drops away for that time. It's pretty intense.
Robert Smith
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.
Robert Smith
I think the rock'n'roll myth of living on the edge is a pile of crap.
Robert Smith
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.
Robert Smith
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.
Robert Smith
There's no hope of me becoming completely relaxed on stage. If I did, I'd sit down and doze off.
Robert Smith
I became an adult in an extreme way. I was recently sorting some old photographs and I found another.
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
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.
Robert Smith
The idea of reinvention has always seemed bizarre to me.
Robert Smith
There may be said to be three sorts of lawyers, able, unable, and lamentable.
Robert Smith
I am very self-conscious a lot of the time.
Robert Smith
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
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
If any of our songs ever did make it on the top ten, I'd disband the group immediately.
