More quotes by 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
What might save us, me and you, is if the Russians love their children too.
Sting
The compass spins between heaven and hell, let your soul be your pilot, let your soul guide you.
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
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
Yoga introduced me to a style of meditation. The only meditation I would have done before would be in the writing of songs.
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 find that the rhythm of going on long walks will suggest melodies.
Sting
I've spent too many years at war with myself, the doctor has told me it's not good for my health.
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
I made two movies before The Police had a hit record: I did Quadrophenia and a film called Radio On.
Sting
If you love someone, set them free.
Sting
I have a big problem with piped music. I like either silence or to listen to it properly.
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
I realize that nothing's as it seems.
Sting
How can I save my little boy from Oppenheimer's deadly toy?
Sting
I can't really change my life to accommodate people who are jealous. I don't see why I should.
Sting
Money's only important when you don't have any.
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
My comfortable existence is reduced to a shallow meaningless party.
