Iggy Pop
When it comes to art, money is an unimportant detail. It just happens to be a huge unimportant detail.
Iggy Pop
And it's a - it's a term that's based on contempt it's a term that's based on fashion, style, elitism, satanism, and, everything that's rotten about rock 'n' roll.
Iggy Pop
I'm not ashamed to dress like a woman because I don't think it's shameful to be a woman.
Iggy Pop
I find it hard to focus looking forward. So I look backward.
Iggy Pop
Sex may be a little more factual than love. You know whether it's good or bad. You know whether you liked it or not. You're not going to change your mind about it ten years later.

Iggy Pop
It's more fun to look at an old picture of me than it is to look at a new one sometimes. Although, I still wear a dress pretty well.
Iggy Pop
Miami's never been more than a spit from New York.
Iggy Pop

Iggy Pop
I thought that if I practiced doing melodies for a year or so at home, I would learn to think melodically, and when I went to work it would come out, and it did, on this album. What else was important to me...? I spend a lot of time in the grocery store, shopping.
Iggy Pop
Studios are like hospitals. A lot of people check in, and they don't check out.
Iggy Pop
Life is just a bag of pot.
Iggy Pop
I try to beat back the producers and engineers so they - there's not an excess of stuff used to squeeze my voice to make it artificial. There's a person in there, and people will listen if they hear another person speak to them, they'll listen because it's lonely out here.
Iggy Pop
If I had to depend on what I actually get from sales, I'd be tending bar between sets.
Iggy Pop
I'm not the kind of person who could join AA or have rules for myself or on Thursday take this vitamin pill. So, basically, I learned the hard way. I learned by trial and error, and tried to get drugs out of my work. That took about a year. If I was going to work, it was best that I be straight. And I was surprised at what came out.
Iggy Pop
What some people would call antics, I would just call a good show.
