I’m a rock god?! I’m five foot seven. I had me jaw broken, and so my chin stuck way out. That’s how I became tough – I learned to pick up anything and fight back … A rock god!

[on Freddie Mercury] When we lost Freddie, we not only lost a great personality, a man with a great sense of humor, a true showman, but we lost probably the best, the best virtuoso rock ‘n’ roll singer of all time. He could sing anything in any style. He could change his style from line to line and, God, that’s an art. And he was brilliant at it.

[on recovering from throat surgery] I got depressed after surgery, during what I call the big silence, that’s when I realized what it would be like to not have a voice. I had two weeks of silence. Silence and no drinking. How’s that for a good Christmas? So, you know, it was the strangest Christmas I’ve ever had.
