More quotes by 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
In TV, film, and music there's a lot of snobbery, and I don't like it. I've never been a cultural snob.
Simon Cowell
I love producing shows. And so when you're on a show where other people are making decisions you don't necessarily agree with it, after a while you start to feel like a passenger.
Simon Cowell
I love TV. I love being behind the scenes on a TV show but there's something about, I don't know there's something very special when you've signed an artist and that first record comes in and it's a good record. It is an indescribable feeling.
Simon Cowell
The young people working for me are ambitious and hard-working. That work ethic has always been a trait of the British.
Simon Cowell
I get very anti-social, depressed and irritable with people. I don't have time for them. I can't make phone calls and stuff. I just sit on my own for days.
Simon Cowell
Most things in music go full circle eventually.
Simon Cowell
Choosing how you vote should not be a snap verdict based on a few minutes of television.
Simon Cowell
My dad said to me, 'Work hard and be patient.' It was the best advice he ever gave me. You have to put the hours in.
Simon Cowell
I don't have sophisticated tastes. I have average tastes. If you looked in my collection of DVDs, you'd see 'Jaws' and 'Star Wars.' In the book library, you'd see John Grisham and Sidney Sheldon. And if you look in my fridge, it's, like, children's food - chips, milkshakes, yogurt.
Simon Cowell
Not everybody is perfect, and I don't think we should be looking for perfect people.
Simon Cowell
On one level, going bust didn't bother me. It was the 80s, and there wasn't the stigma about bankruptcy that you might think. My mates weren't bothered. My dad was in business.. he knew that it happened, too. He loaned me the money to bail me out, and I got a loan from the bank to pay him back.
Simon Cowell
Anything I shouldn't laugh at makes me laugh. I mean, I'm bad at that, when somebody is singing something terribly and I'm thinking to myself, 'If I laugh now, this is the absolute worst thing I could ever do,' and then I start laughing and I can't stop.
Simon Cowell
It's the government's job to encourage entrepreneurialism and investment. Most importantly, it's the government's duty to inspire confidence.
Simon Cowell
If your lifeguard duties were as good as your singing, a lot of people would be drowning.
Simon Cowell
The feelings that we equate with love-feeling sick, feeling insecure, not eating-that's just lust getting in the way. It's your ego saying, 'I want to get laid' and 'I hope she likes me more than I like her.' Love is something that should be there in 20 years' time.
Simon Cowell
I should get a dog. I would get a rescue dog. I like mutts I don't care. I would probably get a three-legged dog no one else would want.
Simon Cowell
I suggest we bring some normality back to this country and say if you are carrying a knife, there must be zero tolerance. If it was up to me, everyone caught with a knife would get an automatic ten year sentence.
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.
