I am unable to watch the Olympics due to the blustering jingoism that drenches the event. Has England ever been quite so foul with patriotism? The 'dazzling royals' have, quite naturally, hi-jacked the Olympics for their own empirical needs, and no oppositional voice is allowed in the free press. -Morrissey Patriotism
That's why I do this music business thing, it's communication with people without having the extreme inconvenience of actually phoning anybody up. -Morrissey Business

The fire in the belly is essential, otherwise you become Michael Buble - famous and meaningless. -Morrissey Famous

If you travel to Germany, it's still absolutely Germany. If you travel to Sweden, it still has a Swedish identity. -Morrissey Travel
Age shouldn't affect you. It's just like the size of your shoes - they don't determine how you live your life! You're either marvellous or you're boring, regardless of your age. -Morrissey Age
