Even I, as sick as I am, I would never be you. Even I, sick and depraved, a traveler to the grave, I would never be you.

I have no love for myself as a human being, but I have immense pride in the music I make, and I believe it has an important place. Others do, too, and the thousands of people with Morrissey tattoos certainly proves something.

It doesn't stop. It really doesn't stop. It's the way I live every single day. I don't do anything else. I have no other interest other than music. At all.

Yes I have had a tan, actually. I went to Los Angeles and got one there, but it didn't make it back to Britain. You're not allowed to come through customs with a tan.

With no reason to hide these words I feel, and no reason to talk about the books I read, but still, I do.

If met Vic Reeves, I'd have no desire other than to smack him in the face.

So the life I have made May seem wrong to you But, I've never been surer It's my life to ruin My own way.
