MARC BOLAN

There is so little time for us all, I need to be able to say what I want quickly and to as many people as possible. Time passes so slowly if you are unaware of it and so quickly if you are aware of it.

I think I am a child. Everything blows my mind.

I tend to play a lot of blues things at home, because most blues things are basically within a 12-bar pattern.

I'm serious about the music, but I'm not serious about the fantasy. It's no big deal being on TV!

If God were to appear in my room, obviously I would be in awe, but I don't think I would be humble. I might cry, but I think he would dig me like crazy.

There is so little time for us all; I need to be able to say what I want quickly and to as many people as possible.

I honestly feel it could all end tomorrow. Not just the band thing - I mean life.

I am the 'Cosmic Dancer' who dances his way out of the womb and into the tomb on 'Electric Warrior.' I'm not frightened to get up there and groove about in front of six million people on TV because it doesn't look cool. That's the way I would do it at home.

All rock musicians are deaf... Or insensitive to mellow sounds.

I've always been a wriggler. I just dig dancing.

The prospect of being immortal doesn't excite me, but the prospect of being a materialistic idol for four years does appeal.

I don't like telephones.

I personally believe that I was... a previous life or something... a previous reincarnation, a bard of some sort, because most of the things I write about are descriptions of places I've never been to.

I mean, I am my own fantasy.

I just dig dancing.

My head is perfectly clean inside.

I feel there is a curse on rock stars.

Be strong and follow your own convictions. You can't assume there is a lot of time to do what you like. This is what David Bowie is afraid of: that he will die before he gets a chance to make a real strong contribution.

Our lives are merely trees of possibilities.

Some people think because I wear makeup that I am gay. But one thing has nothing to do with the other.

We have a very good head thing but we don't make love.

Book after book, I get hooked, every time the writer talks to me like a friend.

With my Les Paul, I know I'm small. But I enjoy living anyway.

Time passes so slowly if you are unaware of it and so quickly if you are aware of it.
