More quotes by 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
I think if you're an unhappy person, you're always going to be an unhappy person. You're probably going to be less unhappy if your business is doing well, if I'm being honest.
Simon Cowell
The best way to kill someone is from the inside, by crushing their hopes and dreams.
Simon Cowell
I think of stress as the creator of cancer and heart attacks, like a tiny little ball you feed. I believe that one of the reasons I've never got ill is that I'm not stressed.
Simon Cowell
I'm obsessed with cleanliness for myself, so I will take a bath three times a day, sometimes a steam twice a day in addition to that.
Simon Cowell
When I was young and we got caught pinching apples, we got a smack from the local policeman. Today if that happened he would be sued. There is a tendency to punish the victim, not the criminal. If someone broke into my house or my mum's house, I worry that the burglar has more rights than me.
Simon Cowell
I was bought an electric guitar when I was 12, but my guitar teacher beat me up. I didn't like guitar lessons... My teacher was obviously bored giving me lessons, and one day I offered him a liquorice toffee, but he didn't answer. So I threw it at him, it hit him in the face, and he sort of beat me up.
Simon Cowell
So I would only feel guilt if I misled somebody who was terrible.
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
I think the best singers in the world, historically, are American. Britain's got its fair share, as well, but some of the greatest singers, ever, whether you're talking about Whitney Houston or Mariah Carey or Aretha Franklin, are from the legacy here.
Simon Cowell
If you've got a big mouth and you're controversial, you're going to get attention.
Simon Cowell
You always want to go to a party where you get an invite.
Simon Cowell
I'd say the most dangerous thing I've ever done is probably bungee jumping in Thailand...
Simon Cowell
I work out three or four times a week, I have Botox, take tons of vitamins and vitamin infusions - if you believe that these things work, you will feel better.
Simon Cowell
You have to be original. The people creating a buzz on YouTube are taking risks, and they're doing something different. I like it when 15 year-olds come on and tell me what to do rather than the other way around.
Simon Cowell
I have always hated celebrities lecturing people on politics. So forgive me. But I am passionate about this country. I am equally passionate about the potential of the people who live here.
Simon Cowell
I still put punctuation in my texts. If it's an 'I', I make sure it's a capital.
Simon Cowell
Maybe I am a bit mad.
Simon Cowell
Everyone who turns up on 'X Factor' does it because a door has been closed to them at some time in their lives, and this is the only shot they have got.
Simon Cowell
If your lifeguard duties were as good as your singing, a lot of people would be drowning.
Simon Cowell
