Ed Sheeran's quotes

Music is a powerful tool in galvanizing people around an issue. There's no better way to get your point across than to put it in a beautiful song.
Be original; don't be scared of being bold!
As far as songwriting, my inspirations came from love, life and death, and viewing other people's situations.
The main thing that you have to remember on this journey is, just be nice to everyone and always smile.
I've always had really messy hair.
I've had years of teasing about my red hair, but I definitely think it toughened me up. If you're ginger, you end up pretty quick-witted.
I'd like to say that I'm a rock star, but I'm not - I'm honestly more of a relationship kind of guy. I'm a guy you could take home to meet your mum rather than a guy your mum wouldn't like.
I don't really do that whole 'single life' thing. I'm kind of heads down and get things done.
It was my love for the guitar that first got me into music and singing.
My love songs are very personal and quite weird. They don't really have the big radio hit choruses because basically they're my therapy, stuff I have to get off my chest.
Nashville is wicked. It's like a proper music community, but it's also quintessentially American. You bump into people there with cowboy hats that spit in jars and call you 'boy.' I just love that.
It was my love for the guitar that first got me into music and singing. Growing up, I was inspired by The Beatles and Bob Dylan. Damian Rice was a huge influence for me musically.
Whenever you have an ex, and they're like, 'I hope we can still be friends!' and you weren't friends before you started dating, then what do you go back to, really?
I personally don't think ginger men have a habit of being attractive. We have to make ourselves seem attractive by doing stuff.
Some of my tattoos are a bit silly, but I know where and what time I got them.
I'm quite arty. I didn't know whether to become an artist or musician but I realised I could paint with music. All my songs have colours.
I met Bill Clinton; he's a very nice guy. Yeah, Bill Clinton's cool.
I've always been a massive fan of John Mayer. I think he's very talented.
I want to have a career that evolves as I go on.
The best thing about being on the road in general is just playing every single night in front of people that are genuinely fans of your music.
'Kiss Me.' That's my 'Twilight' tune, a song you'd have on the 'Twilight' soundtrack.
If I can put on my album in a car or on my headphones and listen to the whole thing and love it, that's what I'm going to be happy putting out there.
The thing that I took away as an early fan from Bob Dylan was the storytelling aspects. He can tell some wicked stories.
The whole 'studly womaniser' thing, I mean, I quite enjoy the title - it's just not very accurate.
Instead of writing songs for girls, I tend to write albums, which I guess is a bit weird.
I think YouTube has destroyed the genre barrier. People can be into Justin Bieber and Eminem at the same time. It's a good thing.
I think encouraging young people to twerk might be a bad thing. It's a stripper's move. If I had a daughter of nine, I wouldn't want her twerking.
Country music is some of the best-written music in the world, so yeah, one day, I would keep my mind open to doing a country record.
Everyone knows almost everything about me. I make it very clear that I'm cool with people knowing all my personal life through my songs.
I don't think that there's much that sets me apart from other musicians, but I think there are definitely things that set me apart from other kinds of artists. I feel that musicians do it their own way, write their own songs and put on a great live shows.
Harry Potter is awesome.
Everyone still thinks I'm Scottish - that's totally wicked.
I think the moment you start trying to please a fan base is when you start going downhill. I'm going to always, always write about what I want, even if it doesn't necessarily cater to most of them.
I think the music I've created is quite odd, and people are going to start talking about that.
The more you write tunes, the better they will become. The more you do gigs, the better you will become.
I'm a huge hip-hop fan from way back in the day.
My parents worked in the art world. They were really supportive of my music in that they allowed me to drop out of school and move out of our home, which not many parents would do.
I would love to get a Moonman! I'd put it next to my other awards. I don't have a cabinet right now; they're just kind of all around my flat, one next to the TV, one in the bedroom. So, I'd have to build a cabinet.
I've never dated anyone in Hollywood - or anyone famous, for that matter. I don't know that I'm ever gonna write a song that you will know who it's about.
I've never really been a confident person, except from a musical standpoint. I had to push myself early on, but it got easier with each gig.
I think I need to accept the fact that I am where I am today because fans have shared my music illegally and legally, but I wouldn't be here today without the Internet, so I can't speak out against it.
You can't call me a Twitter phenomenon or a YouTube one. These things are useful, but so's hard gigging. One year I did 311 shows. I did six in one night alone.
I get tweets every single day going, like, 'I'm so glad you weren't on 'The X Factor.'
I find the whole concept of women screaming at me so odd. It's very flattering, but I don't think I will ever consider myself to be a sex symbol.
I do like my hair. It took a while to come around to the fact that it was quite a unique value point.
There were a couple of things I needed to do while I was in New York. One was to have a pizza pie, one was to get a tattoo... and the other was to get a Yankees hat.
If Adele's seen as boring, then I'm happy to be boring as well.
I don't know if my songs fit in films.
The public has heard the stereotypical love songs a million times, and they've heard the stereotypical life-or-death songs millions of times. It's good to mix it up a little bit.
I think I've been around for a while. But I still have to pay my dues.
Growing up, I was inspired by The Beatles and Bob Dylan. Damian Rice was a huge influence for me musically.
In my eyes, there's no one better than Stevie Wonder. He's a top dude.
