Roger Daltrey

I don’t think there’s any way it could have failed. We don’t know failure in this band. We didn’t know failure. We got to know it a little after awhile but at that time there was no such word.

I wanted to be in a band that shared ideas and were in it together.

We weren’t wealthy but we definitely weren’t poor. We were incredibly rich because there was a wonderful community in Shepherd’s Bush, where I grew up. All my friends were into villainy and crime.

I think if Keith Moon was here today and you asked him to recall most of his early life or most of his life, he wouldn’t be able to recall it.

We lived the life with Keith Moon. It was all Spinal Tap magnified a thousand times.

I always used to develop a cold going into the studio.

[on Brad Pitt] I don’t know… I guess…. he’s a nice person and a GOOD kisser!

I see two or three cars that are really good, but they’re not dominant. There’s usually somebody who’s got one that’s a little bit better than everybody.

It is a little insulting that you’re trying to appeal to adult women voters the same way that Mattel attempts to appeal to eight year olds. And at least Barbie’s pink bus had the good sense to unfold into a sweet hot tub and party den combo. … The only way it could be even more patronizing is if its wheels were giant NuvaRings and they refused to let women drive it.

[on having a baby] Obviously, this isn’t the time in my life that I would have chosen to do this, but I feel like life gives you these challenges for a reason. I feel so happy and glad to be in the place that I am. I really feel blessed. This is something I need to face and take control of.

There’s no better money to spend than your own.

Ahh, I’m from Canada so… no. I’m a Northern Belle.

Last year I couldn’t even have a date,but now it seems that girls have changed their opinion about me.

I wrote my own verses. Anything I did, I wrote myself.

I’ve already done so much. The rest is just gravy, it’s like frosting on the cake

Starting a new studio was a thrilling challenge, but it was more stressful than fun. I never took a salary, a bonus or expenses. I learned never to do anything you’re not passionate about.

Everything we do needs to be exceptional – if it’s not exceptional we don’t put it out there, because the biggest high for us is when we read comments from our customers saying that they can’t live without them.

I think it’s important to be flexible and free, and you can’t be free and spontaneous if you don’t know what you’re doing.

I have two daughters, and we live here in Manhattan, and having gone through the Manhattan kindergarten application process, nothing will ever rival the stress of that.

You don’t even realize how much you need Internet, but it really stops you from doing a lot.

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