If you wanted to chart new territories and head off over the horizon, you had to make sure you weren't overly influenced by what others were doing ... so it didn't matter what other bands were doing ... we did what we were doing.

Every musician wants to do something which will hold up for a long time, and I guess we did it with 'Stairway to Heaven.'

There will be a Led Zeppelin as long as there's a Jimmy Page, John Bonham, John Paul Jones and Robert Plant. This isn't a nostalgia band playing the hits forever. If anything ever happened and somebody left - which I really can't see happening - I don't think we'd bother to carry on. The magic for me is as it is now.

There's music that can affect people in their lives, and they will always relate to the point that they heard it and experienced it, either if you're playing it or you're receptive, as an audience.

The idea of a hypnotic riff as the prime mover of a piece of music has been around for a long time, whether you're talking about the Delta blues or music from Middle Eastern and African cultures.

There's always music that moves me. It doesn't necessarily mean that it's within the parenthesis of rock or blues, or whatever. It's usually far more reaching than that. It can be in many different genres.

You can't buy time. Everything, for me, seems to be a race against time. Especially musically.

If you are on to something creative, school can also inhibit you. The wrong teacher, man, can really mess you up.

I don't know whether I'll reach 40. I don't know whether I'll reach 35. I can't be sure about that. I am bloody serious. I am very, very serious. I didn't think I'd make 30.

I think it's time to travel, start gathering some real right-in-there experiences with street musicians around the world.

You don't find geniuses in street musicians, but that doesn't mean to say you can't be really good.

I'm very fortunate because I love what I'm doing.

Music is the one thing that has been consistently there for me. It hasn’t let me down.

Crowley didn't have a very high opinion of women, and I don't think he was wrong.

You never knew what was going to happen in concert. It was a really exciting prospect to go onstage, and you can hear that in the live recordings ... wherever we were and whatever year it was, we always went onstage determined to do our best.

I have a voracious appetite for all things, worldly and unworldly.
