More quotes by Rufus Wainwright
All these poses of classical torture ruined my mind like a snake in the orchard. I did go from wanting to be someone, now I'm drunk and wearing flip-flops on Fifth Avenue.
Rufus Wainwright
And I am left behind Corrupted crushed and blind All for a dream That in truth was never really mine.
Rufus Wainwright
I like to think of myself as a combination of Sid Vicious and Virgil Thompson
Rufus Wainwright
I like to try new things.
Rufus Wainwright
As an artist, you put so much into what you do and it can all be torn down in a nanosecond.
Rufus Wainwright
Cigarettes and chocolate milk These are just a couple of my cravings Everything it seems I like's a little bit stronger A little bit thicker A little bit harmful for me.
Rufus Wainwright
In the present world, this technological, psychotic, politicised, nonsensical world, you have to believe that the good guys are going to win! That evil will be banished somehow!
Rufus Wainwright
The mind has so many pictures Why can't I sleep with my eyes open? The mind has so many memories Can you remember what it looks like when I cry? I'm trying, trying to tell you All that I can in a sweet and velvet tongue But no words ever could sell you Sell you on me after all that I have done.
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 cheeks explode when I smile. Thats why I have to look so nonplussed.
Rufus Wainwright
I believe in freedom Freedom's apparently all I need But who's ever been free in this world? Who has never had to bleed in this world?
Rufus Wainwright
Arguably, the relationship between Liza Minnelli and Judy Garland is one of the great mother-daughter sagas of all time. Certainly, for certain people, and a lot of them, Liza is the bigger star. Liza is the more kind of viable legend, shall we say. Then there's the other camp, where Judy is the one.
Rufus Wainwright
My mother's songs are really turning out to be masterpieces. I have inherited this incredible legacy and am so fortunate to bathe in her sensibilities. It is tinged with tragedy. I'd much rather she was here in person, but there is still a positive force to come out of her death and that is having the gift of music that she gave.
Rufus Wainwright
All humans realize they are loved when witnessing the dawn early morning is the triumph of good over evil. Absolved by light we decide to go on.
Rufus Wainwright
The thing I hate most is false modesty. The artists who are, like, Oh, you know, I'm really not that good. Oh, I can't believe I'm here. I find it vaguely sinister, even.
Rufus Wainwright
For me, the iPhone is harder than reading Faust.
Rufus Wainwright
I've been thinking of trying my hand at rap. I've been recording snippets on my BlackBerry.
Rufus Wainwright
I think my imagination and my passions are still firing away, but it's really the body that starts to make up the rules. It's not a major problem it's just when you get a little older you realize how much your body thanks you when you are good to it.
Rufus Wainwright
I definitely have a Luddite's approach to what's going on. I find that as I get older, I get stupider. For me, the iPhone is harder than reading Faust. I've been hanging out a bit with Lou Reed, and he's the complete opposite. He's into technology and is kind of like a toddler, compared to me, who's like an old 19th-century widow or something.
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.
