On performing live
I think it's the only time in my life I feel right. I'm not sure if I even exist off-stage (2007)
On the future
I don't want to go on much longer, really. I think that would suggest a lack of imagination (2009)
On his legacy
If I were knocked down tomorrow by a passing train, I would be considered the most important artist ever in the history of English pop music. That's just a rough guess (1991)
On being worshipped
I can understand it when somebody writes to me by every post, and sends me their underwear, and feels that enormous degree of painful obsession. And I wholly encourage it (1987)
On having his Man United hat stolen as youngster
I thought, "It's a very cruel world, I'm not prepared for this." And I decided to get my revenge on society (1988)
On animal rights
In China, cats and dogs are skinned alive for the fur industry. Come, come, nuclear bomb (2005)
On race relations
I don't think black people and white people will ever really get on. The French will never like the English, the English will never like the French. That tunnel will collapse (1992)
On being vegetarian
I can't bring myself to sit at any table where flesh is eaten. Unless, of course, it's human flesh (2005)
On George Michael
If he had to live my life for five minutes, he'd strangle himself with the nearest piece of cord (1988)
On passion
For me, going into Ryman's [stationery shop] is the most extreme sexual experience one could ever have (1985)
On wearing fur
It's always women who wear fur - never men. Men invent wars, women wear fur (2006)
On self-belief
If a plane crashed at 38,000ft, within 10 minutes I'd be walking [safely] on the ground. And if there were eight survivors and one had to be eaten, it wouldn't be me (1997)
On the height of his fame
I could've hosted The Generation Game. Or 3-2-1. I could've done anything in 1984 (1986)
On his target audience
The audience I am trying to reach are champion figure skaters. I think they need me the most (2006)
