More quotes by Sting
Peter Townshend shows us it's all right to grow up. There is dignity after rock'n'roll.
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
I don't like singing before noon.
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 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
I've spent too many years at war with myself, the doctor has told me it's not good for my health.
Sting
They build machines they can't control, and bury the waste in a great big hole.
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 think the time is right for yoga, we really are living in a very complex time - a time of great turmoil and change. Yoga is a good antidote to all that...It is almost like music in a way there's no end to it.
Sting
I think I'm a focus for international attention.
Sting
Success always necessitates a degree of ruthlessness. Given the choice of friendship or success, I'd probably choose success.
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
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
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 realize that nothing's as it seems.
Sting
