More quotes by Sting
When there's no information and the compass turns to nowhere that you know well, let your soul be your pilot.
Sting
I want to get old gracefully. I want to have good posture, I want to be healthy and be an example to my children.
Sting
My comfortable existence is reduced to a shallow meaningless party.
Sting
At night a candle's brighter than the sun
Sting
I quite like mistakes. I think they're human.
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
Like Yoga, the spiritual life is actually very difficult.
Sting
I feel this music has nurtured me as I've been immersing myself in it. I've felt supported by it.
Sting
I never saw no miracle of science that did not go from a blessing to a curse.
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
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 need to manufacture trauma in my life to be creative. I have a big enough reservoir of sadness or emotional trauma to last me.
Sting
Turn the clock to zero, honey, we're starting up a brand new day.
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 was brought up as a Catholic and went to church every week and took the sacraments. It never really touched the core of my being.
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 find that the rhythm of going on long walks will suggest melodies.
Sting
The compass spins between heaven and hell, let your soul be your pilot, let your soul guide you.
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
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
