The interview hadn't even begun..... and suddenly we all noticed
something very peculiar: Bono - is - taking - all - his - clothes - off.
The white shirt went first, then his black suede boots, his socks,
trousers, and briefs (black with white trim, possibly Calvin Klein,
probably Marks & Spencer). "That's better," he sighed blissfully. "Now ask me a serious question -- if you dare."
Q : "Most interesting question asked recently by a fan?"
Bono : "Have you seen Bono?"
"Sex and music are still for me places where you glimpse God.
Sex and art, I suppose, but unless you're going to get slain in the spirit by a Warhol or Rothko, I think for most of us art is music."
I will admit that we are attracted to issues that
unify people rather than divide them.
"I never wanted U2 to be the biggest rock'n'roll band in the world, just the best."
"To be one is a great thing. But to respect differences may
be even greater."
BP: What's the most frightening thing that ever happened to you?
Bono: I found this pair of sunglasses, I picked them up, I put them on... ... and I entirely agree with him on this one.
"Most of our organization is run by women.
We sort of work for them, really!"
Never trust a man who tells you it's from the heart, never trust a man smoking a cigar, never trust a cowboy or a man who wears shades...
"We don't write music for food; we write music for sex. Dinner parties just aren't our thing."
