More quotes by Iggy Pop
I never say never about anything.
Iggy Pop
Musical types tend to combine the burden of the author with the burden of the actor.
Iggy Pop
I think that all the years of exposure to amps and electricity has altered my body chemistry.
Iggy Pop
And for so long, I had thought if I was going to write a song, or get into something, I had to at least smoke a joint or something. And that didn't work anymore. Once I was fairly well cleaned out, even a little bit of a drug getting into my work threw me off kilter.
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

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 a little bit damaged in about 15 different ways, and it's been nice that no particular damaged area has become a major issue. I'm a more than moderately healthy 65-year-old male who has gotten away with a lot of stuff.
Iggy Pop
I've probably been spit on more that any person alive outside of, I would say, a member of the prison system.
Iggy Pop
If I had to depend on what I actually get from sales, I'd be tending bar between sets.
Iggy Pop
At university, I had been obsessed with reading about the lives of Rimbaud and Baudelaire, and I was steeped in the crazy poets, and I came to view my early subjects through that prism.
Iggy Pop
When I get up in the morning, I stay nude for three or four hours. If I really feel like getting formal, I'll put on board shorts.
Iggy Pop
I find it hard to focus looking forward. So I look backward.
Iggy Pop
What did Christ really do? He hung out with hard-drinking fishermen.
Iggy Pop
What do you do with a lifetime of work? Face it in the morning.
Iggy Pop
My general take on American music since 1969 is that it's just getting stiffer and people are getting more uptight - audience, performance, and palace guard.
