There is certainly more in the future now than back in 1964.

You have to keep fit being a singer - that's part of the job. You can't do it unless you have incredible stamina.

We lived the life with Keith Moon. It was all Spinal Tap magnified a thousand times.

When I sing, I try to live the song or live the emotion of the song. The space I'm in doesn't exist. It's another world.

We tend to think of age only in time, but I don't think it has much to do with time at all there's a whole load of other things. I've met 16-year-olds who are old and 90-year-olds who are young.

I think if Keith Moon was here today and you asked him to recall most of his early life or most of his life, he wouldn't be able to recall it.

I've never wanted to be anyone other than who I am.

Rock n' roll seems to have changed society much more than any politician, I think it really has.

We weren't wealthy but we definitely weren't poor. We were incredibly rich because there was a wonderful community in Shepherd's Bush, where I grew up. All my friends were into villainy and crime.

First of all, you have to understand that I'm like anybody else. When I hear my voice on a record I absolutely loathe my voice. I cannot stand my voice.

Inner contentment liberates the soul

The eyes are not responsible when the mind does the seeing.

Some people ask the secret of our long marriage. We take time to go to a restaurant two times a week. A little candlelight, dinner, soft music and dancing. She goes Tuesdays, I go Fridays.

Perhaps the worst thing about suffering is that it finally hardens the hearts of those around it.

A rare piece of magic, don't let it FLY by you

Do you realise that Eve was the only woman who ever took a man's side?

And I was mischievous. I was always into something. So when I got good attention from the singing, I knew that was probably where I needed to land.

There is no such thing as 'social gambling.' Either you are there to cut the other bloke's heart out and eat it -- or you're a sucker. If you don't like this choice -- don't gamble.

In the life of one man, never The same time returns.

We can't all be lions in this world. There must be some lambs, harmless, kindly, gregarious creatures for eating and shearing.
