Chris Martin

I know being on a major label is meant to be antiquated, but we’re fine with it.

Well, once we finish something, I can’t really listen to it because all I hear are problems.

I just want to make the best music of all time with my best friends.

I don’t drink, I don’t take drugs, I don’t smoke.

There’s a reason why people who’ve had bad relationships with their parents listen to angry stuff.

I could be walking down the street one minute and get a handshake and then get spat on the next. I’m never sure whether to wear gloves or a helmet.

Hate a liar more than I hate thief. A thief is only after my salary a liar is after my reality.

As a child I was the best tree climber in our neighbourhood, I was like a little monkey. I’ve never been afraid of hurting myself or a little physical discomfort.

Nothing is creepier than a bunch of adults being very quiet.

Boys love being bossed around by me tho…

If there are 10 people there, two or three are going to recognize you.

There are no mistakes, only opportunities.

[On Lord Of The Rings] I don’t like all this stupid Gollum begat Wobblo and the Oompa Loompas and…Oh Jesus Christ! There was too much “Oh, God, here come the gloodloys…” Christ Almighty, what are they talking about!?

There is no such thing as ugly. That’s a word that doesn’t really enter my vocabulary. If there’s any definition to being perfect, you’re perfect at being yourself.

All my favorite stars, my family and my friends are here. I’m having the happiest birthday that an 18-year-old girl could ever have.

[on Anthony Weiner] I remember him now… the man whose name is so perfect for the scandal he was caught up in that it rekindled my faith in God.

[On her most dreadful crush] I used to drive, pretty pathetically, I’d just drive by their house all the time and they didn’t know who I was. I’d just drive by the house all the time. I once knocked on the window and I thought, “What am I doing? What am I going to say if they come to the door and don’t know who I am?”

Lesson learned? When people say, “You really, really must” do something, it means you don’t really have to. No one ever says, “You really, really must deliver the baby during labor.” When it’s true, it doesn’t need to be said.

I don’t think Disney gets enough credit as a director. When people talk about their favourite directors of all time, Disney has some dope movies under his belt too.

I can be sent a pop song, a reggae song, a rap song or an RandB song, and people know that Nicki Minaj is gonna deliver something special every time

I was rapping as a hobby. It was something I did for my friends and just played around on ideas and stuff like that.
