What do you do with a lifetime of work? Face it in the morning.
Iggy Pop

The future of rock n roll is Justin Bieber.
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
Image
Cigarettes and coffee, man, that's a combination.
Iggy Pop
Image
If I don't terrorize, I'm not 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
Image
I find it hard to focus looking forward. So I look backward.
Iggy Pop
Image
I thought, Wow, it sounds really stoned anyway. It sounded good to me. I found out that there was a lot in there. What all this comes down to is I was just trying to get in touch with myself. And I met some interesting people in New York who weren't in show business. I even got to know my dentist.

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
Image
I have a hot memory, but I know I've forgotten many things, too, just squashed things in favor of survival.
Iggy Pop
Image
I'm a travel enthusiast.
Iggy Pop
Image
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
Image
Miami's not anybody's poor cousin. It's an aspiration to live in this town, not something you have to do to promote yourself like some of the larger cities.
Iggy Pop
Image
You know what I think you get scared of more - especially me, after touring for so long and being in bands for so long - you start to associate certain behavior with the music. It's like people associate having a cigarette with having a cup of coffee, or lunch.
Iggy Pop
Image
The most successful stuff is sold to you as indispensable social information. The message in the music is, 'We are terribly, terribly slick and suave, and if you listen to us, you can probably get a leg up in society, too.'

Stages are getting higher and higher, and I'm getting older and older.
Iggy Pop

I'm a street walking cheetah with a heart full of napalm.

My mom was a saint. She taught me to be terminally nice.
