More quotes by Sting
I learned to change my accent in England, your accent identifies you very strongly with a class, and I did not want to be held back.
Sting
I don't understand American football at all. It looks like all-in wrestling with crash helmets.
Sting
Men go crazy in congregation. They only get better one by one.
Sting
Our politicians, they all seemed like game show hosts to me.
Sting
Intellectually I'm probably a Republican.
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
Every ripple on the ocean, every leaf on every tree, every sand dune in the desert, every power we never see.
Sting
I see music as one language. If one musical form eats its own tail, it dies. So it needs to be a mongrel, it needs to be hybridised.
Sting
Without the breath of real freedom we're getting nowhere fast.
Sting
My logic's been drowned in a sea of emotion.
Sting
If you love someone, set them free.
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
Sooner or later we learn to throw the past away, history will teach us nothing.
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
Like music, yoga is a journey -- one that is long enough so you keep developing, and keep learning. I don't see an end to it.
Sting
The compass spins between heaven and hell, let your soul be your pilot, let your soul guide you.
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 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
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.
