Rod Stewart

I've been out with some extremely beautiful women who have had no sex appeal whatsoever. It really is a lot more than skin deep.

You can be with one of the most beautiful women in the world and still be unhappy.

I have a very lively and colourful show. It's two hours of hits and the music speaks for itself.

Half the battle is selling music, not singing it. It's the image, not what you sing.

I see myself at 7:30 in the morning and it's not too pretty.

I was very fortunate that I saved my money and I still do.

I suppose I miss the British cynicism and the humor.

I have enough music coming out of my kids' bedrooms when I'm at home.

There is this power that comes with being famous.

I became famous, I think, really because of the interpretation of other people's songs, way back when, and that's what I enjoy the most. And I'm a lazy bugger.

Well, I have a CBE and I accepted it with glee because it's not bestowed on you by the royal family, it's not bestowed on you by the government, you have to be nominated by the public.

Everybody sung in my family.

You go through life wondering what is it all about but at the end of the day it's all about family.

I shouldn't have got married. My dad told me. I was 35 and I got married. He said, 'You're too young to be married'. 'What? I'm 35'. Said, 'You're far too young. You haven't lived yet'. He was right, bless him, thanks, Dad.

My dad bought me a guitar and people would ask me to play.

What I do now is all my dad's fault, because he bought me a guitar as a boy, for no apparent reason.

I can definitely say the older I've got the better I've become at being a dad and a husband.

I love change, I need it.

Like everybody in show business, you think you're going to wake up one day, and it's all going to be taken away from you. I think we all share an insecurity in that way, everybody in show business - the ones I talk to, anyway.

You shouldn't be in the music business if you're posing.
