More quotes by Iggy Pop
If you give a good performance, something that gets some feeling across to people, that’s such a rare gift. It’s underestimated at this point in history, when the music biz is inevitably turning into a kind of politics.
Iggy Pop
I find it hard to focus looking forward. So I look backward.
Iggy Pop
I was a pretty nice kid. Kind of quiet, but quiet in terms I wasn't going out and setting fire to anything. I had a big mouth and I was creative type, you know.
Iggy Pop
Miami's never been more than a spit from New York.
Iggy Pop
What do you do with a lifetime of work? Face it in the morning.

I don't think I'm lucky I think I have a tough constitution. That's a lot of it. And I've been wise enough to listen to other people. I was unconsciously cultivating as many straight friends as I could.

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've probably been spit on more that any person alive outside of, I would say, a member of the prison system.
Iggy Pop
There are no pimps, no whores, no transvestites - gone. Now that's more the culture I'm comfortable in ... I don't like it in the house, you know what I mean, but I like it somewhere around.
Iggy Pop
I'd come home from school alone with those teenage blues and I'd put on Frank Sinatra's It was a very good year. Here was this mature man singing about the cycle of his life, and as a kid I felt the emotions of it already. It has since been a touchstone for me whenever I want to experiment musically.
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 street walking cheetah with a heart full of napalm.
Iggy Pop
I'm not the kind of person that likes to be dependent.
Iggy Pop
I have a hot memory, but I know I've forgotten many things, too, just squashed things in favor of survival.
