You're lucky if you reach the point where you go, "ok, i have a wonderful life ...i fly around the world, stay in beautiful places, people are generally quite sweet to me, what's to complain about?" but i think you have to get there... and it's taken me the best part of 54 years to reach that point where i'm like, "i'm very lucky, i'm lucky, i'm blessed" - all of those things. i wish i could impart that to other people but i think when you're young, you just don't listen.

More From Boy George

You can be an artist without visual images, a reader without eyes, a mass of erudition with a bad elementary memory. in almost any subject your passion for the subject will save you. if you only care enough for a result, you will almost certainly attain it. if you wish to be rich, you will be rich; if you wish to be learned, you will be learned; if you wish to be good, you will be good. only you must, then, really wish these things, and wish them with exclusiveness, and not wish at the same time a hundred other incompatible things just as strongly.
Memories Eye Passion
Don't wish it was easier, wish you were better. don't wish for less problems, wish for more skills. don't wish for less challenges, wish for more wisdom. the major value in life is not what you get. the major value in life is what you become. success is not to be pursued; it is to be attracted by the person you become.
Life And Love Skills Challenges
Don't wish it was easier wish you were better. don't wish for less problems wish for more skills. don't wish for less challenge wish for more wisdom

I love jazz. so to me, there are two main types of jazz. there's dancing jazz, and then there's listening jazz. listening jazz is like thelonius monk or john coltrane, where it's a listening experience. so that's what i like; i like to make stuff that you listen to. it's not really meant to get you up; it's meant to get your mind focused. that's why you sit and listen to jazz. you dance to big band or whatever, but for the most part, you sit and listen to jazz. i think it comes from that aesthetic, trying to take that jazz listening experience and put it on hip-hop.
Thinking Dancing Listening
I find that so many of my peers of my age don't listen to anything new. but i love the new. i love the energy of the new, the energy of the new act. the young are so important. the young give you the energy, and if you don't notice the young, and you don't give them credit and you don't listen to all sorts of music, then you're missing out on something.
Giving Missing Important
Oh yeah, i'm the president of the lucky club. there are so many talented people who don't work. and the crop of young actors i'm surrounded by is incredible. when you have people like that around you it amps you up a little bit. also, emile hirsch and joseph gordon-levitt, or guys like ryan gosling. it's a really good crowd and i feel i'm coming up at a good time. but equally, there's a lot of good young actors who don't get to work who are more talented than i. i'm just lucky.
