More quotes by Sting
Convince an enemy, convince him that he's wrong. To win a bloodless battle, the victory is long. A simple act of faith, reason over might. To blow up his children would only prove him right.
Sting
I've been the lowest low on the planet, I've been a sinner all my days. And I was living with my hands on the trigger, I had no sense to change my ways.
Sting
I try to give the media as many confusing images as I can to retain my freedom. What's real is for my children and the people I live with.
Sting
Let your soul be your pilot.
Sting
Be yourself, no matter what they say.
Sting
My friends are Peter Gabriel, Bruce Springsteen, and we're singing about mortality, getting older. It's an interesting time.
Sting
My comfortable existence is reduced to a shallow meaningless party.
Sting
I've spent a bit of time with the Prince of Wales, who I respect greatly. I'd give two cheers for the Monarchy.
Sting
There is no monopoly on common sense on either side of the political fence.
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
The Super Bowl is Americana at its most kitsch and fun.
Sting
Turn the clock to zero, honey, we're starting up a brand new day.
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.
Sting
I have been through various fitness regimes. I used to run about five miles a day and I did aerobics for a while.
Sting
I've spent too many years at war with myself, the doctor has told me it's not good for my health.
Sting
Like Yoga, the spiritual life is actually very difficult.
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
I think I'm a focus for international attention.
Sting
The acceptance of death gives you more of a stake in life, in living life happily, as it should be lived. Living for the moment.
Sting
