Some Gary Kemp's quotes. Goto "Gary Kemp's quotation" section for more.Maybe I've got to admit that what I did here was enough. I can make some more films. Maybe I'll direct a film. Maybe I'll have my musical put on stage. But nothing, really, to be absolutely honest, competes with making a very successful pop band for 10 years of my life.
Tags: Enough, Life, SuccessfulMy brother Martin is two years younger than me. There has never been any competition between us - clearly he was the good-looking one; he was also very sporty, and I am not a football player.
Tags: Between, Brother, FootballMy father had inklings of my cultural aspirations. He would take me to the library, things like that. But he wasn't one of those dads who had read George Orwell and was a member of the Communist party. We had no books at home.
Tags: Father, Home, ReadPunk was sort of an angry stance against things that had happened just before, against the pop of glam rock, against progressive rock. Music had become very staid and it was about the playing and people obsessed. Eric Clapton was God and we needed an enema within the art form, and punk did do that.
Tags: Art, God, MusicWe never had books at home, but my dad, seeing how keen I was to read, took me to Islington Library when I was about eight and we pulled out two - a Biggles and a science fiction novel. I never got the ace fighter pilot but fell in love with all things to do with the future and space. Isaac Asimov soon became my guiding star.
Tags: Future, Home, LoveI am a person who holds the aesthetic high. I have suits made in Savile Row.
Tags: Aesthetic, High, HoldsI detest that saying 'Everything happens for a reason'; it's nonsense.
Tags: Happens, Reason, SayingI love England. I don't really like places when they're too hot. It's my Celtic blood.
Tags: Blood, Hot, LoveI think I tried to control situations within my first marriage and I wasn't the easiest person to live with.
Tags: Control, Marriage, WithinI think my younger self would be more amazed to know I was doing an interview for 'The Spectator.'
Tags: Interview, Self, YoungerI think sometimes my controlling instincts came out of a fear of other people.
Tags: Fear, Instincts, SometimesI'm an atheist. I don't 'believe' at all.
Tags: AtheistI've always thought that actors wanted to be pop musicians and pop musicians wanted to be actors.
Tags: Musicians, Thought, WantedI've been through Hell with some of the members of my old band, and Hell is highly stressful.
Tags: Band, Hell, OldKevin Costner told me that 'True' was his and his wife's song. I'm not sure if that's a good thing because they split up soon after.
Tags: Good, True, WifeMy instinct is to be very controlling.
