There's a lot of hate in the world.

I've dodged so many bullets. Not just because of unsafe sex, but because of the amount of drugs I did, the amount of alcohol, the amount of work I was doing. I started the Elton John AIDS Foundation because I got so lucky.

It's much too late to save myself from falling.

Simon Cowell and I are great friends and we wind each other up. Rod Stewart and I do the same thing.

I just sit there and make up songs and sing to [my son] in gibberish. I'm very good at gibberish now.

And I trusted someone to look after me on the business side of life.

I cannot bear successful people who are miserable.
