More quotes by Sting
Peter Townshend shows us it's all right to grow up. There is dignity after rock'n'roll.
Sting
I learned to change my accent in England, your accent identifies you very strongly with a class, and I did not want to be held back.
Sting
For to sit in a room full of books, and remember the stories they told you, and to know precisely where each one is located and what was happening in your life at time or where you were when you first read it is the languid and distilled pleasure of the connoisseur.
Sting
Our politicians, they all seemed like game show hosts to me.
Sting
Turn the clock to zero, honey, we're starting up a brand new day.
Sting
I have a big problem with piped music. I like either silence or to listen to it properly.
Sting
I realize that nothing's as it seems.
Sting
I see music as one language. If one musical form eats its own tail, it dies. So it needs to be a mongrel, it needs to be hybridised.
Sting
At night a candle's brighter than the sun
Sting
I went off to fight some battle that I'd invented inside me.
Sting
I find that the rhythm of going on long walks will suggest melodies.
Sting
Intellectually I'm probably a Republican.
Sting
I think you can get the wrong impression about me from my work and think I'm always a bit down. I'm not that way at all. I'm fun-loving.
Sting
My comfortable existence is reduced to a shallow meaningless party.
Sting
I can't really change my life to accommodate people who are jealous. I don't see why I should.
Sting
I come from a family of losers, and I've rejected my family as something I don't want to be like.
Sting
They build machines they can't control, and bury the waste in a great big hole.
Sting
It has very little to do with my work, but if your image is not sexy enough, people won't listen. It's part of the game.
Sting
If I were a Brazilian without land or money or the means to feed my children, I would be burning the rain forest too.
Sting
I don't think happiness is necessarily the reason we're here. I think we're here to learn and evolve, and the pursuit of knowledge is what alleviates the pain of being human.
