It's a perfect day for letting go.

Perhaps not as badly applied and not as obvious, but for thousands of years, people have worn makeup on stage.

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

The further I get from the things that I care about, the less I care about how much further away I get.

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.

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

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.

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

Refusing to grow up is like refusing to accept your limitations. That's why I don't think we'll ever grow up.

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

You don't really know a song until you play it live.

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.
