More quotes by Sting
Our politicians, they all seemed like game show hosts to me.
Sting
My comfortable existence is reduced to a shallow meaningless party.
Sting
My friends are Peter Gabriel, Bruce Springsteen, and we're singing about mortality, getting older. It's an interesting time.
Sting
I hate most of what constitutes rock music, which is basically middle-aged crap.
Sting

Sting
I've spent too many years at war with myself, the doctor has told me it's not good for my health.
Sting

Sting
I can't really change my life to accommodate people who are jealous. I don't see why I should.
Sting
Every ripple on the ocean, every leaf on every tree, every sand dune in the desert, every power we never see.
Sting
Intellectually I'm probably a Republican.
Sting

Sting
Yoga introduced me to a style of meditation. The only meditation I would have done before would be in the writing of songs.
Sting
That sense of failure, I don't know where people put it who don't write songs and aren't able to emote physically. It must go somewhere.
Sting
A lot of people approach risk as if it's the enemy when it's really fortune's accomplice.
Sting
I made two movies before The Police had a hit record: I did Quadrophenia and a film called Radio On.
Sting
They build machines they can't control, and bury the waste in a great big hole.
Sting
Security in human systems we're told will always, always last. Emotions are the sail, and blind faith is the mast. Without the breath of real freedom we're getting nowhere fast.
Sting
