I love every minute of fatherhood, staying up all night, changing nappies, kids crying, I find it really funny and inspiring. It connects you to the world in a new way.

Better to build a bridge than a wall.

I'm very relaxed. I have a family, I have a partner of 20 years, I have a wonderful life; nothing could be better.

As Elton John, my days on pop radio are over, and I know that and I accept it and I'm not unhappy about it.

Everything I thought I'd hate about having children - the crying, the screaming - nothing fazes me. I love it all and it's relaxed me.

People still think of AIDS as a shame-based disease, it's a sexually transmitted disease, and you're either gay or you're a prostitute or an intravenous drug user. And so a lot of people are still very bigoted about this disease. It's such a treatable disease. It's so - the end is in sight for this disease, medically.
