I wouldn't want to think people doted on us, hung on every word, or wanted to look like us.

Whenever I'm home, I haven't got any makeup on. But even in the studio, before I do vocals, I put makeup on.

I had no desire to be famous; I just wanted to make the greatest music ever made. I didn't want anyone to know who I was.

There's no hope of me becoming completely relaxed on stage. If I did, I'd sit down and doze off.

I don't care where the Cure is placed in the pantheon of rock. I don't care if we're perceived as relevant. We're never worried how we fit in. I don't even want to fit in.

I really enjoy what I do, and who I'm with and where I am. Having said that, I'm not really a person of habit, because what I do in my job is travel around the world and play concerts to people, and occasionally do very weird things.

I'd rather spend my time looking at the sky than listening to Whitney Houston.
