Robbie Williams

I’ve got this brilliant thing where I go, “I’m Robbie Williams”, and people are interested in what I want to say – which is amazing because I’m just an idiot from Stoke-on-Trent.

I’m a bit hesitant to do anything because I’m actually kind of lazy and I’d like an easier life from now on. The world’s a massive place with lots of early mornings and late starts when you’re working.

I can do anything I want to do really, I might as well.

I feel like I’m always having to justify why I haven’t kept in touch with anyone from the old days in Stoke-on-Trent, but I’m like that with anybody. I don’t let anybody in. I just rely on myself.

When people come out of rehab, they usually go to secondary rehab for another six months and then enter back into society gradually. But I came out and did Top Of The Pops straight away!

I’m quite obviously not the world’s most handsome man – I’m the second world’s most handsome man!

If I have to listen to one more grey faced man with a $2 hair cut explain to me what rape is, I’m going to lose my mind.

So I have probably 1,200 little bits of paper with notes, which when the Ambien really starts to kick in, don’t really make much sense. Say what you like about prescription drugs, but they do help when you’re sequencing a record.

In most cases being a good boss means hiring talented people and then getting out of their way.

I don’t particularly tell my guys to cheat. I just tell them not to get caught.

To me, there’s two types of songs, good and bad. And I just like to stick with the good ones.

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

[on Disney banning junk food adverts] I think when you can get an occupant of the White House behind you, particularly one as formidable and effective and passionate as Mrs. Obama, that can’t hurt

Entertainment isn’t just based on the very structured syndrome of European popular music, and it’s great that there are so many thousands of people who are of the same opinion.

Guys act strange around me. I swear I don’t know why!

I like work. If it’s not hard enough, I try to make it harder. I like the process of being daunted by it, tackling it, and knowing I can do it.

A girl must marry for love, and keep on marrying until she finds it.

Anything that we think is incredible and beautiful and wonderful, we ascribe to something that we don’t know what it is.

I have to turn down roles I really want to do because I can’t travel. But that’s okay, because you make peace with things in your mind.

My husband said it was him or the cat. I miss him sometimes.

I still want Oprah to play my best friend. I want to spend time with Oprah.
