More quotes by Sting
The compass spins between heaven and hell, let your soul be your pilot, let your soul guide you.
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 think I'm a focus for international attention.
Sting
I find that the rhythm of going on long walks will suggest melodies.
Sting
I miss England. I miss the weather. I've spent moss of the last 25 years on tour. I'm ready to come home.
Sting
The world is ruled by butterflies adding to their weapon piles. Imagine what your taxes buy. We hardly ever try.
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 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
I quite like mistakes. I think they're human.
Sting
A gentleman will walk but never run.. it takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile.. be yourself no matter what they say.
Sting
When there's no information and the compass turns to nowhere that you know well, let your soul be your pilot.
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
If you love someone, set them free.
Sting
I hate most of what constitutes rock music, which is basically middle-aged crap.
Sting
Takes more than combat gear to make a man Takes more than a license for a gun Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can A gentleman will walk but never run
Sting
I have a big problem with piped music. I like either silence or to listen to it properly.
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
I feel this music has nurtured me as I've been immersing myself in it. I've felt supported by it.
