Freddie Mercury (5 September, 1946 – ∞)
I don't think of myself as a legend. Me and legends don't get on. I'm just a little sweetheart ... I'm a sweetie. To me a legend is somebody like Montserrat Caballé. She's the legend and I'm just an old tart. I don't want to draw parallels to anybody else, because I don't think I have a parallel.

Freddie Mercury (5th September 1946 – ∞)
I don’t really think "When I’m dead, are they going to remember me?" It’s up to them. When I’m dead, who cares? I don’t.

Freddie on Queen staying together
“The break-up rumours are always around. Either your egos take you away from all that and you break up, or it brings you closer together. At the moment we are very much together.”

“If anyone left, any of the four, that would be the end of Queen. We are four equal, interwoven parts. And the others just couldn't function the same without each quartet.”

You'll either get me where I'm very strong or I'm very soft. So if the right person gets me, they'll find me that I'm very vulnerable and I can be a real baby, if they find me the right time. At the same time, I'm very strong and very hard. There's no half measures with me.

Freddie giving audience the thumb-ups
There's no way to tell if someone writes a better song than you, because in the end it's up to the public. The only way you realise it's good, is if it's received well.
