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
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
Image
I hate most of what constitutes rock music, which is basically middle-aged crap.
Sting
Image
Every ripple on the ocean, every leaf on every tree, every sand dune in the desert, every power we never see.
Sting
Image
Without the breath of real freedom we're getting nowhere fast.
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

Sting
Image
If you love someone, set them free.
Sting

The world is ruled by butterflies adding to their weapon piles. Imagine what your taxes buy. We hardly ever try.
Sting
Image
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
Image
They build machines they can't control, and bury the waste in a great big hole.
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've spent a bit of time with the Prince of Wales, who I respect greatly. I'd give two cheers for the Monarchy.
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.

Yoga introduced me to a style of meditation. The only meditation I would have done before would be in the writing of songs.

The Super Bowl is Americana at its most kitsch and fun.
