More quotes by Sting
I realize that nothing's as it seems.
Sting
It has very little to do with my work, but if your image is not sexy enough, people won't listen. It's part of the game.
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
The Super Bowl is Americana at its most kitsch and fun.
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
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 made two movies before The Police had a hit record: I did Quadrophenia and a film called Radio On.
Sting
I went off to fight some battle that I'd invented inside me.
Sting
Intellectually I'm probably a Republican.
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 come from a family of losers, and I've rejected my family as something I don't want to be like.
Sting
I have a big problem with piped music. I like either silence or to listen to it properly.
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
I feel this music has nurtured me as I've been immersing myself in it. I've felt supported by it.
Sting
My comfortable existence is reduced to a shallow meaningless party.
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
Takes more than combat boots to make a man.
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
Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away, history will teach us nothing.
Sting
Money's only important when you don't have any.
Sting
