Chris Martin

Looking after your ears is unfortunately something you don’t think about until there’s a problem.

You gotta wear the right trousers if you’re gonna be a rock star.

I personally really like getting a proper album with artwork and everything.

I don’t speak particularly well. That’s one of the consequences of being extremely ugly.

I have my moments – usually twice every album – when I basically lose it.

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

I think actors have a choice of drawing attention to themselves or living on the outskirts.

There’s so much of this beautiful planet that is still actually spectacular and stimulating. There are so many amazing people that you meet along the way. By using my career as the wind in the sails of my adventures, I could see so many things and so many people that I might have missed had my career gone a different direction.

I think Led Zeppelin must have worn some of the most peculiar clothing that men had ever been seen to wear without cracking a smile.

He was going to make it. He had a passion for driving a car … Adam was never interested in anything else.

We were all on this ship in the sixties, our generation, a ship going to discover the New World. And the Beatles were in the crow’s nest of that ship.

I must say, as a point of pride, that I didn’t get the job because I was a woman. I got the job because Amy Poehler moved to New York with the Upright Citizens Brigade and I was the next best thing.

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.

I have a suspicion that the definition of ‘crazy’ in show business is a woman who keeps talking even after no one wants to f-ck her anymore. The only person I can think of that has escaped the ‘crazy’ moniker is Betty White, which, obviously, is because people still want to have sex with her.

I gossiped when I was given a chance because I wasn’t popular so the few times someone would invite you into the group to have a conversation it was usually about someone else and you just joined in because it was great to be a part of something, and that I feel bad for.

If you ever start to feel too good about yourself, they have this thing called the Internet, and you can find a lot of people there who don’t like you.

Show No Love , Cus Love Can Get U killed

I don’t know what would have happened to me if I hadn’t been able to hear.

Being jealous of a beautiful woman is not going to make you more beautiful.

Be different, stand out, and work your butt off.

I used to always feel awkward around a lot of rappers. Other people came from hustling and all that. Sometimes it was harder to relate. People would look down on me for the way I dressed, because my raps weren’t really that good – it was like, ‘Just shut up and do beats.’
