More quotes by Steven Morrissey
As a very small child I found recorded noise and the solitary singer beneath the spotlight so dramatic and so brave... walking the plank... willingly... It was sink or swim. The very notion of standing there, alone, I found beautiful.
Steven Morrissey
Artists aren't really people. And I'm actually 40 per cent papier mache.
Steven Morrissey
Well, I'm a Catholic by birth and you can never shed it.
Steven Morrissey
It's so tedious that everyone must be defined.

I first bought a Buffy Sainte-Marie record when I was 12, and her music has always remained with me. In the 1960s, as a political activist, Buffy's lyrics were fearless, and I'm very grateful for all the risks that she took.
Steven Morrissey
A heartless hand on my shoulder A push and it's over Alabaster crashes down Six months is a long time Tried living in the real world Instead of a shell But before I began I was bored before I even began

And make no mistake, my friend, your pointless life will end but before you go, can you look at the truth?
Steven Morrissey
I was never young. This idea of fun: cars, girls, saturday night, bottle of wine... to me, these things are morbid. I was always attracted to people with the same problems as me. It doesn't help when most of them are dead.
Steven Morrissey
War, I thought, was the most negative aspect of male heterosexuality. If more men were homosexual, there would be no wars, because homosexual men would never kill other men, whereas heterosexual men love killing other men.
Steven Morrissey
I would rather eat my own testicles than reform The Smiths, and that's saying something for a vegetarian.
Steven Morrissey
When I'm lying in my bed, I think about life and I think about death. And neither one particularly appeals to me.
Steven Morrissey
If you love animals, obviously it doesn't make sense to hurt them.
Steven Morrissey
Any criticism of Thatcher throws a dangerously absurd light on the entire machinery of British politics. Thatcher's name must be protected, not because of all the wrong that she had done, but because the people around her allowed her to do it.
Steven Morrissey
When they bury me in a church and chuck earth on my grave, I'd like the words 'Well, at least he tried' engraved on my tombstone.
Steven Morrissey
Music is like a drug, but there are no rehabilitation centres.
Steven Morrissey
I always thought my genitals were the result of some crude practical joke.
