More From Steven Morrissey
- "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."
- "That’s why I do this music business thing, it’s communication with people without having the extreme inconvenience of actually phoning anybody up."
- "When I’m lying in my bed I think about life and I think about death and neither one particularly appeals to me."

- "I first learned that there were black people living in some place called other than the United States in the western hemisphere when I was a very little boy, and my father told me that when he was a boy about my age, he wanted to be an Episcopal priest, because he so admired his priest, a black man from someplace called Haiti."― Henry Louis Gates
- "He who is of calm and happy nature will hardly feel the pressure of age, but to him who is of an opposite disposition youth and age are equally a burden."― Plato
