Every time I sat in a chemistry lesson I thought, what am I doing this for? I don't ever want to be in a job that involves a Bunsen burner.'
Simon Cowell
I was slightly cynical of the American mentality before I came over here, but now I preach it. Here, no one's going to tear you down if you buy yourself a $300,000 car. They're likely to say: Well, you probably worked hard for it. Good luck to you.
Simon Cowell
People confuse ego, lust, insecurity with true love.
Simon Cowell
If I had to say who is the number-one most powerful figure is in reality TV, it's very easy. It is the general public. They're the only people who have power now.

My proudest achievement has been the success of the shows and artists I have been involved with, because they were made in Britain.

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
The best way to kill someone is from the inside, by crushing their hopes and dreams.
Simon Cowell
Not everybody is perfect, and I don't think we should be looking for perfect people.

Britain's got talent, enormous talent, that's very obvious.
Simon Cowell
Have I got a black book? Yes, it's called a mobile phone. I do get offers. There is no shortage of people if you want to go on dates - working in TV, living in L.A., it is there if you want it.
Simon Cowell
I like spaghetti bolognese, I like baked beans on toast. I hate French food. I hate fancy food.
Simon Cowell
I think that by ignoring the show you're ignoring the audience who put you there.
Simon Cowell
I didn't have any qualifications when I left school - I had three O-levels.
Simon Cowell
Thank God kids love following an artist. When you get a group who pop, it's the best thing in the world.
Simon Cowell
You always want to go to a party where you get an invite.
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.
Simon Cowell
As an actor, I really like Philip Seymour Hoffman. I think he's a genius.
Simon Cowell
Talking to celebrities is too much effort. They all think the same.
Simon Cowell
Well, it's basically the viewers who determine it. We - well, basically the producers and myself chose the people we felt had the best reaction, you know, through the press, the Internet, the people we thought deserved a second chance. And they've chosen a winner, I believe.
