More quotes by Sting
I've spent a bit of time with the Prince of Wales, who I respect greatly. I'd give two cheers for the Monarchy.
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 went off to fight some battle that I'd invented inside me.
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
The compass spins between heaven and hell, let your soul be your pilot, let your soul guide you.
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
Our politicians, they all seemed like game show hosts to me.
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
How can I save my little boy from Oppenheimer's deadly toy?
Sting
Turn the clock to zero, honey, we're starting up a brand new day.
Sting
There is no monopoly on common sense on either side of the political fence.
Sting
I quite like mistakes. I think they're human.
Sting
When there's no information and the compass turns to nowhere that you know well, let your soul be your pilot.
Sting
A lot of people approach risk as if it's the enemy when it's really fortune's accomplice.
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
I realize that nothing's as it seems.
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
My logic's been drowned in a sea of emotion.
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
If I were a Brazilian without land or money or the means to feed my children, I would be burning the rain forest too.
Sting
