More quotes by 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 never saw no miracle of science that did not go from a blessing to a curse.
Sting
At night a candle's brighter than the sun
Sting
Men go crazy in congregation. They only get better one by one.
Sting
I've spent too many years at war with myself, the doctor has told me it's not good for my health.
Sting
The world is ruled by butterflies adding to their weapon piles. Imagine what your taxes buy. We hardly ever try.
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
They build machines they can't control, and bury the waste in a great big hole.
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 think I'm a focus for international attention.
Sting
Great music as much about the space in between the notes as it is about the notes themselves.
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
Without the breath of real freedom we're getting nowhere fast.
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 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
I can't fly a flag for monogamy or whatever the opposite is it depends on the person and on the situation.
Sting
A lot of people approach risk as if it's the enemy when it's really fortune's accomplice.
Sting
I hate most of what constitutes rock music, which is basically middle-aged crap.
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
There is no monopoly on common sense on either side of the political fence.
Sting
