I have to build my own boat this time. It's a big sea out there, and I have a pretty small boat. I have a lot of belief in it.

I don't think anybody comes close to The Beatles, including Oasis

I tend to be not a person who does everything right all the time.

I really thought I was pretty good before I saw Hendrix, and then I thought: Yeah, not so good.

When I'm gone, people will no doubt remember me for Queen, but I would much rather be remembered for attempting to change the way we treat our fellow creatures.

We wouldn't have put it out with the name Queen on it if we didn't think it was musically up to scratch.

What we were trying to do differently was this sort of layered sound.
