Quotes :
Yoga is almost like music in a way; there's no end to it.
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile.
One of the rewards of success is freedom, the ability to do whatever you like.
That sense of failure, I don't know where people put it who don't write songs and aren't able to emote physically. It must go somewhere.
I'm very much afraid of being mad - that's my one fear.
There's no religion but sex and music.
I see music as one language. If one musical form eats its own tail, it dies. So it needs to be a mongrel, it needs to be hybridised.
I write the music, produce it and the band plays within the parameters that I set.
I have a big problem with piped music. I like either silence or to listen to it properly.
I made two movies before The Police had a hit record: I did Quadrophenia and a film called Radio On.
He is so weird that he is in movies
