More quotes by Iggy Pop
Bowie's a real man, and I'm a real woman - just like Catherine Deneuve.
Iggy Pop
I'm a street walking cheetah with a heart full of napalm.
Iggy Pop
It's the same thing: I would think, If I can't go out and pull some teenager tonight, maybe I'm no good on stage anymore. And you start to think that you even need it as a motivation. I did, anyway.
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.
Iggy Pop
The Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame was a great idea when it started, but I think they ought to close it, I think it's full.
Iggy Pop
What some people would call antics, I would just call a good show.
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
Onstage I've been hit by a grapefruit, beercans, eggs, spit, money, cigarette butts, Mandies, Quaaludes, joints, bras, panties, and a fist.

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
Punk rock is a word used by dilettantes and heartless manipulators about music that takes up the energies, the bodies, the hearts, the souls, the time and the minds of young men who give everything they have to it.
Iggy Pop
I never say never about anything.
Iggy Pop
I like semi-torn-down places where I could get nestled in and get something done without anyone bothering me.
Iggy Pop
The future of rock n roll is Justin Bieber.
Iggy Pop
Studios are like hospitals. A lot of people check in, and they don't check out.
Iggy Pop
The 2 things I like the most are girls and loud noises.
Iggy Pop
I find it hard to focus looking forward. So I look backward.
Iggy Pop
Look, you're here to see me, and I can't go on until my dealer is here, and he's waiting to be paid, so give me some money so I can fix up, and then you'll get your show.
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
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.
