“You can't supervise your own history.” — Roger Taylor Quote

“You can't supervise your own history.”

“I am a little deaf now. Without my hearing aids in, I miss a lot of peripheral sounds. I had tinnitus, too, for a while.”

“We became closer and closer at the end of Freddie's life, and I think we were co-dependent in many ways. We stuck together for an awfully long time, and I think we all felt we needed one another.”

“Freddie was the glue that kept us together. He was a very complex man: very shy but also with a forceful side to him.”

“I know how hard it is to make it in the music business.”

“Of the Queen tributes, some of them are very funny, and some of them are really not funny at all. The terrible ones are cheesy and pantolike, more about dressing up in a Brian May wig and a Freddie Mercury moustache, and what they're missing out is the fact that the music is quite complicated and actually not easy to perform.”

“The people, and the people alone, are the motive force in the making of world history.”

“When history is erased, people's moral values are also erased.”

“The past actually happened but history is only what someone wrote down.”

“The past is malleable and flexible, changing as our recollection interprets and re-explains what has happened.”

“Whole generations have forgotten history.”

“Antiquities are history defaced, or some remnants of history which have casually escaped the shipwreck of time.”
