I love discordancy. It makes people ill at ease and wakes up a part of their brain that's normally asleep.
John Lydon
Image
Meat isn't murder, it's delicious.
John Lydon
Image
Punk was never about one particular clean-cut imagery... it's about many, many individuals coming very loosely together.
John Lydon
Image
U2 - that's a band that never should have existed. There's no life experience in any of their songs.
John Lydon
Image
Michael Jackson plays the wounded puppy very well. 'I must be the loneliest man in the world'. Well, you're not a man. And the loneliness is self inflicted, so sod off you pathetic puerile pimp. I wonder what color his willy is.

I hate the technological rip-offs that pass for music formats these days, and go back to vinyl to hear a good record because the sound is always so much fuller. I don't even like listening to music in the car.

Anyone who's parading under a $100,00-plus video is not free from corporate. That's just the MTV advertising agency. I find them all to be just a bit of a sham.

I like crazy people, especially those who don't see the risk.

These days young kids don't have any place to form an epic adventure. It's more often in front of the TV screen or a laptop. That's very hard on them. They're being taught daily unsocial skills. Facebook is an unsocial skill. It's so sad.

Image
Maybe I'm a prehistoric monster by being an individual. It's highly likely. All I offer to others is their own individuality. Grab it!
John Lydon
Image
I somehow hope - naïve though I may be, utopian, possibly - that my music has some kind of calming effect on the universe, that it's somehow beneficial to people.
John Lydon
Image
I don't like walking in the street and seeing 30,000 copies of myself.
John Lydon
Image
I could take on England, but I couldn't take on one heroin user.
John Lydon
Image
For me all governments are my enemies and I've never made any bones about it any other way other than directly, and I don't fly the left flag or the right flag, me, I'm common sense.
John Lydon
Image
I'm no one's lap dog, you can't put me on a leash.
John Lydon
Image
I'm not limited to categories or genres. Anything human beings come up with fascinates me. If a three-legged idiot like me can dance to it, then that's all well and fine.
John Lydon
Image
There's many, many ways to write a song. But generally, sitting down at a table and writing is not one of them.
John Lydon
Image
I'm not this callous clown walking around laughing at life all the time. I've had some serious, serious problems in my life. But I've come out with a smile.
John Lydon
Image
I've done no harm to no one. In fact, I think I've improved the world.

When you talk like an asshole and look like an asshole, you're an asshole
