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

Let your soul be your pilot.
Sting
Image
I always stayed fit because I'm a performer, and all of those things help me to perform.
Sting
Image
Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away, history will teach us nothing.
Sting
Image
The world is ruled by butterflies adding to their weapon piles. Imagine what your taxes buy. We hardly ever try.
Sting
Image
I made two movies before The Police had a hit record: I did Quadrophenia and a film called Radio On.
Sting
Image
Intellectually I'm probably a Republican.
Sting
Image
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
Image
I have been through various fitness regimes. I used to run about five miles a day and I did aerobics for a while.
Sting
Image
Turn the clock to zero, honey, we're starting up a brand new day.
Sting
Image
I think you can get the wrong impression about me from my work and think I'm always a bit down. I'm not that way at all. I'm fun-loving.
Sting
Image

Sting
Image
Yoga is almost like music in a way there's no end to it.
Sting
Image
Great music as much about the space in between the notes as it is about the notes themselves.
Sting
Image
Success always necessitates a degree of ruthlessness. Given the choice of friendship or success, I'd probably choose success.
Sting
Image
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
Image
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.
Sting
Image
The compass spins between heaven and hell, let your soul be your pilot, let your soul guide you.
Sting
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I miss England. I miss the weather. I've spent moss of the last 25 years on tour. I'm ready to come home.
