My entire life, socially, was all around the Maggie era. That was the great challenge as a Sex Pistol was how to deal with Margaret Thatcher. I think we did rather good.
John Lydon
Image
I love books, and all the best ones are people analysing their own emotions. You can learn from that.
John Lydon
Image
Words cannot express quite a lot of feelings, whereas a noise or tone or drone or sound, an accordion falling down a staircase, can somehow capture an emotion much better.
John Lydon
Image
Do not stand in the middle, go to the right or to the left.
John Lydon
Image
I think there's something basically wrong with the general public that they do need their icons.
John Lydon
Image
Dummy Dum Dum was my nickname for years at school. I was the strange one of the family, the one who couldn't remember his name.

If you give me the chance, I'll destroy America for you.
