She's probably in denial that she's a great big ball of insecurity and I'm quite well aware that I am one.

Separation penetrates the disappearing person like a pigment and steeps him in gentle radiance.

Well there are those who think you can only succeed at someone else's expense.

My mother and father were fantastic, very active. I find it difficult to say this, but I'm quite a loving person and I've always been loving to my friends. In the long run, that pays off. I'm very interested in other people, and if you are, they're interested in you.

I just go in my back garden. It's the only place where people don't come and bother you.

A lot of what I've been learning in the last two years is due to therapy - about my sexuality, why things go wrong, why relationships haven't worked. It isn't anything to do with anybody else; it's to do with me.

Part of me looks at the gay movement now and worries that we're losing our individuality.

I knew style and content went hand in hand.

I'm always being inspired .

I also tried to avoid doing obvious dance records.

When Culture Club broke up, I hadn't been going out a lot because we'd been working all the time, so I suddenly had this period of leisure. And it was just around the time that the whole acid house thing kicked off in London.

People say things about me all the time and I get over it. I've had some appalling things told about me.

An actor is a guy who, if you ain't talking about him, he ain't listening.

I'm being honest, I say what I think.

She's probably in denial that she's a great big ball of insecurity and I'm quite well aware that I am one.

Beethoven had a great look. It was very much about the drama of appearance.

What's really sad is that a lot of very talented people are being forced to do things that are very embarrassing and I don't intend to be one of them.

A lot of people felt I was getting work because I was Boy George. My response at the time was that there's a lot of DJs making records, they're not all making good records, but they have the right to do that.

The ultimate goal is to be more satisfied. I really don't believe you get wiser because you get older. It's a choice, perhaps not to take some things so seriously.

I would rather have a cup of tea than sex.

I'd got very successful, everyone knew who I was, but I felt very empty.

I started going to Madame Louise's, the lesbian club where all the punk bands used to go - the Sex Pistols, the Clash. I remember seeing Billy Idol walk in there; he was gorgeous.

I can do anything. In GQ, I appeared as a man.

I was unwelcome in the U.S. for four years.

Remember that I was out of the closet at the age of sixteen. My parents knew I was gay; I'd had to tell them.

I think people could be a bit friendlier. The only real contact you have with people is when they're annoyed if you've had a party - you know, it's been a bit too noisy for them or something.

I suppose there is a lot of toughness in me.

I'm not responsible enough to have a dog - or a child.

I'm of the opinion that as a DJ you must always play what you love and ignore what's 'trendy' because true passion always eclipses what's fashionable. Quality is always fashionable.

One door closes and another one opens.

I cannot consistently, with self respect, do other than I have, namely, to deliberately violate an act which seems to me to be a denial of everything which ideally and in practice I hold sacred.

I learned denial from my mother. I just never confronted things and if anybody did, I just would go crazy.

Since the birth of our Nation, no other right has been more important than having the ability to vote. Unfortunately, as history has shown, the denial of this right to minorities is a scar on our system of democracy.

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.

Denial ain't just a river in Egypt.

The schools would fail through their silence, the Church through its forgiveness, and the home through the denial and silence of the parents. The new generation has to hear what the older generation refuses to tell it.

Your denial is beneath you, and thanks to the use of hallucinogenic drugs, I see through you.

We believe very strongly that you stop that denial of coverage by promoting choice. Let people make the decisions.

The denial of our duty to act in this case is a denial of our right to act; and if we have no right to act, then may we well be termed the white slaves of the North, for like our brethren in bonds, we must seal our lips in silence and despair.

Security is when everything is settled. When nothing can happen to you. Security is the denial of life.

Ostensibly rigorous and realistic, contemporary conservatism is an ideology of denial. Its symbol is a smile button.
