More quotes by Simon Cowell
What I'm interested in watching is to make sure that they give the right advice now to the contestants who are going forward because, you know, it's one thing just to criticize but you've got to also give, you know, good advice which is going to help them. Overall, I think they're a good panel.

Rules equal boredom, and I don't like that.
Simon Cowell
My dad wasn't someone who was a great disciplinarian, we had a fun relationship, but he gave me really constructive advice in my life, which I still carry today and I do pass on to other people. So if I can have the same relationship with my son as I had with my dad, then I think he'll be very happy and I'll be very happy.
Simon Cowell
At 20, you're cocky and you think you can rule the world, and you get it all wrong.

Simon Cowell
My life honestly isn't as weird as people think it is. I work longer hours, maybe I have a bit more money, but fundamentally, I'm not really that different.
Simon Cowell
What luxury would I take to a desert island? A mirror. It's true. I'd miss me.
Simon Cowell
Music should always be polarizing. What one person likes, somebody else hates. And I hate that kind of snobbery in pop music. The fact that so many people are getting upset over this one song is hysterical. And if people like it, that's great.
Simon Cowell
You don't go into anything contemplating failure, because if you did, you wouldn't make it.
