I know where I'm going musically. I can see my pattern and I'm going much slower than I thought I'd be going.
Jimmy Page
Image
I'm not afraid of death. That is the greatest mystery of all. That'll be it, that one. But it is all a race against time.
Jimmy Page
Image
I can only listen to what I'm working on, at the time. I can't listen to anything else because I don't want to copy it.
Jimmy Page
Image
Domesticity and all that isn't really for me.
Jimmy Page
Image
I think it's time to travel, start gathering some real right-in-there experiences with street musicians around the world.
Jimmy Page
Image
But if you want me to knock Kingdom Come, all I will say is that I heard the guitarist said he'd never heard my playing, and I'd defy any guitarist in American not to have heard Led Zeppelin.
Jimmy Page
Image
Actually, I'm getting one made up with eight necks and I'm going to get a wheelwright to make a big rim around it and then I can do cartwheels off the stage.

The gut-strung guitar, the classical guitar, that is a whole different world on its own. When you think what the guitar can do and what every individual player does with a guitar, everyone has their own identity coming through the guitar.

I'm still searching for an angel with a broken wing. It's not very easy to find them these days.
Jimmy Page
Image
So many people are frightened to take a chance in life and there's so many chances you have to take.
Jimmy Page
Image
You can't buy time. Everything, for me, seems to be a race against time. Especially musically.
Jimmy Page
Image
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.

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.
Jimmy Page
Image
I deal in emotions. It's the harmonic side that's important. That's the side I expected to be much further along on than I am now. That just means to say that I've got to keep at it.
Jimmy Page
Image
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'm attracted by the unknown, but I take precautions.
Jimmy Page
Image
I'm very fortunate because I love what I'm doing.
Jimmy Page
Image
No. I usually rest in my satin-lined coffin, actually. I'm not allowed out in daylight hours.

It's interesting when something new comes along, a band of dwarfs playing electronic harps or something, but I'm not searching.
