The Verve Quotes

• And that whole philosophy has crept into everything we do now. Music's the last thing where people can go and pay the same amount of money for a piece of shit or a diamond. And that's why we've got to care about it. [Richard Ashcroft]
• Chris Martin is a very kind guy who says a lot of things, but he isn't a Merlin an alchemist.[Richard Ashcroft]

• The good thing about most bands is there is a duel thing going on. You've got your Noel and Liam, and me and Nick about that time were as volatile as you can be in a sense. Not in a physical sense, it never came to blows, but mind wise, it got a bit nasty do ya know what I mean? [Richard Ashcroft]
• On the person who stole his guitar: "Whoever you are out there, you can safely take it back to Virgin and nothing will be done. Or you can find yourself floating in the River Mersey."[Richard Ashcroft]
• I can name you 50 bands who are doing OK now and in two years they will be forgotten. They're just this summer's T-shirt. History will forget them. But history has a place for us. It may take three albums but we will be there. [Richard Ashcroft]
• We're in a malaise. What do people really believe in any more apart from sport and music? [Richard Ashcroft]
