Rufus Wainwright
It seems like the older I get, the more unreal the world becomes.
Rufus Wainwright
I think the minute you mention death, people run for the hills - unless it's heavy metal. People do not like death.
Rufus Wainwright
My greatest experiences in the theatre and the most religious experiences in my life - of which going to the opera is one for me - have been with the Romantic composers' repertoire: it's Wagner, it's Strauss, Verdi, Puccini. That era gets me every time.
Rufus Wainwright
I don't want to hold you and feel so helpless I don't want to smell you and lose my senses And smile in slow motion With eyes in love.
Rufus Wainwright
But I want to deepen as an artist, and working with Shakespeare definitely points in that direction.
Rufus Wainwright
If I had had more of a strategic attitude towards how to reveal my sexuality, and if I'd even played with it a little more, I could have sold a lot more albums and been a lot more famous.
