I just don't feel comfortable anymore with the kind of attention that I'm getting. It's purely the numbers of people that want a bit of the Cure or want a bit of me.

In some cases, I quite like irritating people who need to be irritated.

Refusing to grow up is like refusing to accept your limitations. That's why I don't think we'll ever grow up.

It's really nice meeting people after a concert. Still, it's very weird to be at the center of a group of 30 people all listening to what you're saying. When that group turns into 300 people, it goes on from weird. Some people revel in it, and I don't.

I have never liked Morrissey, and I still don't. I think it's hilarious, actually, what things I've heard about him, what he's really like, and his public persona is so different. He's such an actor.

The further I get from the things that I care about, the less I care about how much further away I get.

Anyone can rehearse and play constantly any song in the world.
