We've gone overboard on every Queen album. But that's Queen.

The lavish presentation appeals to me, and I've got to convince the others.

I was never too keen on the British music press. They've called us a supermarket hype, and they used to suggest that we didn't write our own songs.

I want to lead the Victorian life, surrounded by exquisite clutter.

If we're weird onstage, I don't know what you'd call the Tubes.

But, you know, we spent two years putting our act together.

Inside my heart is breaking, My make-up may be flaking, But my smile, still, stays on!

To keep the body in good health is a duty… otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.

“You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger.”

Anger will never disappear so long as thoughts of resentment are cherished in the mind. Anger will disappear just as soon as thoughts of resentment are forgotten.

They blame those who remain silent, they blame those who speak much, they blame those who speak in moderation. There is none in the world who is not blamed.

I do not dispute with the world; rather it is the world that disputes with me.

Wear your ego like a loose fitting garment.

Some do not understand that we must die, but those who do realize this settle their quarrels.

You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger.

The instant we feel anger we have already ceased striving for the truth, and have begun striving for ourselves.

Both formerly and now, it is only suffering that I describe, and the cessation of suffering.

Life is like the harp string, if it is strung too tight it won’t play, if it is too loose it hangs, the tension that produces the beautiful sound lies in the middle.

When watching after yourself, you watch after others. When watching after others, you watch after yourself.

Whatever has the nature of arising has the nature of ceasing.

The fool who knows he is a fool is that much wiser.

“The root of suffering is attachment.”

“However many holy words you read, However many you speak, What good will they do you If you do not act on upon them?”

“In separateness lies the world’s greatest misery; in compassion lies the world’s true strength.”
