Sometimes I'm scared of being Ozzy Osbourne. But it could have been worse. I could have been Sting.

If that's the only thing that's stopping war then thank God for the bomb.

At 18, if someone had said to me, "I think you should go to rehab and get cleaned up," I would have thought, "You're fucking mad."

I wanted to be the fifth Beatle.

If you can laugh at your mistakes, it's a good thing.

Being in Birmingham, I thought I was going to be a gangster or a bag-runner or a thief. I heard music and I was determined to get out of there.

I discovered rock'n'roll. You could go round Europe in a van with your best mates, drinking beer, smoking dope and screwing chicks.
