Chris Martin Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Chris Martin:

I think we're a band with a lot of history now so it's nice to come up with something that doesn't have any history at all.

If I hear a song that I like, my first instinct is to find out about who made it.

Chris Martin

Sometimes we have criticism that is very constructive.

Chris Martin

We aren't cool and never will be.

Chris Martin

People who write happy songs are often unhappy.

Chris Martin

Before our albums are released I feel like we still own it, that we have control over our music. But once it's out there in the world it's no longer ours.

Chris Martin

When you're on your fifth album, you are going to be judged against all your previous work and expectations.

Chris Martin

We rely more on enthusiasm than actual skill. Whatever you do, do it enthusiastically and people will like it more.

Chris Martin

Music comes from a place we don't know.

Chris Martin

You know, it's possible for two humans to be in a relationship without there needing to be some public reason for that relationship.

Chris Martin

Being such a big band is never a problem but it can be distracting.

Chris Martin

There's a reason why people who've had bad relationships with their parents listen to angry stuff.

Chris Martin

Even though the album is an endangered species, can we try and make a coherent and good one, even if it's like making a horse and cart at a Nascar conference?

Chris Martin

If you don't let love in, then you can't really give it back.

Chris Martin

I do an hour's yoga and go running every day. Then I see a picture of myself and I still look like a skinny, potbellied idiot - and I thought I had turned into this superhunk!

Chris Martin

There's stuff going on in the world right now, which you can't imagine why is this happening; it's crazy. I don't know what the answer is, but if you didn't have faith in the universe that somehow something great would arrive at the end, then we'd all give up, and that would be a waste of everyone's time.

Chris Martin

I could be walking down the street one minute and get a handshake and then get spat on the next. I'm never sure whether to wear gloves or a helmet.

Chris Martin

What makes us a bit nervous is, in this instant age, to release something that might take more than one listen. Where everything is instantly judged on YouTube or something! It's a bit like releasing a horse and cart on a racetrack.

Chris Martin

More idiots should just shut their mouths.

Chris Martin

I don't actually own a car.

Chris Martin

I never talk about my wife: we're both in public professions but we try to keep our private life private.

Chris Martin

Well, I don't like the word 'rock star,' the two words, 'rock star.' Not even 'soft rock star. Not even limestone star. I don't like those words.

Chris Martin

I personally really like getting a proper album with artwork and everything.

Chris Martin

I'm just a public-schoolboy. I've got a degree. I'm from a middle-class family in Devon. I've got no story.

Chris Martin

Anyone who criticises me for talking about fair trade is a few pebbles short of a beach. Because everyone should care about it, just like everyone should care about the environment, because we all live here.

Chris Martin

I just want to make the best music of all time with my best friends.

Chris Martin

There's a part of me that wishes no one knew anything about me, but it's just not realistic.

Chris Martin

I don't speak particularly well. That's one of the consequences of being extremely ugly.

Chris Martin

You can never say you're big - I don't think you can ever take anything like that for granted.

Chris Martin

Coldplay fans are the best in the world. If you like Coldplay then you're obviously very intelligent and good looking and all-around brilliant.

Chris Martin

To be totally honest with you, I'm so happy to be alive every day.

Chris Martin

I get more people approaching me about how good I was in 'Napoleon Dynamite' than being in Coldplay.

Chris Martin

I can't believe we've got away with becoming this huge band. And we still haven't done anything I think is that good yet.

Chris Martin

I think shareholders are the great evil of this modern world.

Chris Martin

It's difficult when you're successful, to admit that you need help.

Chris Martin

I do worry - a lot.

Chris Martin

I think we're a band with a lot of history now so it's nice to come up with something that doesn't have any history at all.
