More quotes by Sting
I'm not speaking as someone who has reached satori or anything else. I'm a student.
Sting
I think I'm a focus for international attention.
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 find that the rhythm of going on long walks will suggest melodies.
Sting
I think I mentioned to Bob [Geldof] I could make love for eight hours. What I didn't say was that this included four hours of begging and then dinner and a movie.
Sting

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
At night a candle's brighter than the sun
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
I don't drink coffee I take tea my dear, I like my toast done on one side. And you can hear it in my accent when I talk, I'm an Englishman in New York. See me walking down Fifth Avenue, a walking cane here at my side. I take it everywhere I walk, I'm an Englishman in New York. I'm an alien I'm a legal alien, I'm an Englishman in New York.
Sting
I can't really change my life to accommodate people who are jealous. I don't see why I should.
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.
