Freddie is great. At a time when everybody around was doing God knows what, Queen was making music.

It [retirement] was absolutely boring. You can't go and say, 'I'm retired now. That's it!' It won't take long and you're really gone for good and someone throws the last shovel of dirt on a coffin with your name on it. That's the moment you're really retiring - when you die.

I'll always be an outrageous character.

When you’re in love, it’s not just about the messing around in the sack, it’s about how empty you feel when they’re gone.

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'd rather look good in my coffin than bad in my coffin.

Love and peace to everyone. May your God go with you.
