We worked for 11 years to get where we are today, and I want to take our work seriously so that later on I'll be able to appreciate the money we've made.

Everybody who knows us knows we always have a good time.

We said we'd fly the flag without him and carry on. I didn't give him a kiss because I still hadn't accepted what was happening. I was hoping that some miracle was going to happen. Of course, it didn't. I wish I had kissed him now.

I don't like lifts and will walk up 20 flights of stairs if I have to. Crowded rooms make me uncomfortable, too, although I can sing to a stadium full of thousands of people no bother.

If some people can imagine that a person they love is alive in another world, why can't I imagine Maurice is alive in this one An artist is a person who uses art to run away from reality. It's not wrong – it's survival. There's nothing wrong with me creating a world in which Maurice is alive.
Robin Gibb Bee Gees -
An artist is an artist because he is not happy with the world, so he creates his own existence.
Robin Gibb Bee Gees -
I love stuff like Mozart.

My work means everything to me.
