I'd love to follow the Tour de France one day. It's a really exciting spectacle. I've only seen it once as it was coming into Paris and that was very exciting for me. I have memories of that.

But when you get music and words together, that can be a very powerful thing.

Other bands wanted to wreck hotel rooms; Roxy Music wanted to redecorate them.

But I do like to have peace and quiet for a good hour.

Secretly, I wanted to look like Jimi Hendrix, but I could never quite pull it off.

Women! I have no idea. I don't know anything about women at all. They're a complete mystery to me.

And Mary J. Blige, she's got all these fur coats and hats and stuff. She's good; I like her.

I don't do interviews at all when I'm on tour, so this time, on a day off, I'll do that kind of thing a little bit. I don't do big promotion schedules, not when I'm touring.

Why should I spoil my mood by wearing an ugly suit?

I've had quite a few moments I've liked, so it's good enough.

It's fabulous when you do that, when you discover somebody who you like, when you kind of feel those feelings, even though he articulates them better.

If a woman tells you how terrible she looks, sincerely deny it, even if you agree.

The happiness at getting what you want is not usually commensurate with the worry leading up to it.

Truth and mercy require the exertion - never the suppression, of man's noble rights and powers.

Of all forms of visible otherworldliness, it seems to me, the Gothic is at once the most logical and the most beautiful. It reaches up magnificently-and a good half of it is palpably useless.

Some of the wildest men make the best pets.

The douchiest thing a guy could do on a date is to make a girl pay. If you invite her out and then make her pay.

Who knew there were so many ghosts to be busted in the world?

I'll take fifty percent efficiency to get one hundred percent loyalty.

The grackles sing avant the spring Most spiss oh! Yes, most spissantly. They sing right puissantly.

Avarice, where it has full dominion, excludes every other passion.
