Stroll into work at 10. Lunch from 12 till three. Leave work at five. That's living!
John Lydon
Image
Love is two minutes and fifty-two seconds of squishy sounds.
John Lydon
Image
Periods of inactivity, I don't know such things. I'm consistently writing. My life is busy. It always is. There are hardly any moments for self-indulgent laziness.
John Lydon
Image
As a young concert-going person, I was never enamoured with celebrities who would walk out to feature in certain songs and then walk off.
John Lydon
Image
I don't like walking in the street and seeing 30,000 copies of myself.
John Lydon
Image
I've never said I'm a communist.
John Lydon
Image
I love boating - not flash, 'noisy go fast' nonsense, but the general relaxation of it. My wife and I love to get in our little Wellcraft and go as far out to sea as we can, hopefully beyond land. That is the best thing you can ever do. It clears your psyche.

I don't believe in anarchy, because it will ultimately amount to the power of the bully, with weapons. Gandhi is my life's inspiration: passive resistance. I don't want to live in the Thunderdome with Mad Max.
John Lydon
Image
I never take any commitment lightly, and I certainly don’t take my wife lightly. I never did and I never will. That’s permanent. That’s true love.
John Lydon
Image
As a human being, I'm work in process.
John Lydon
Image
You'll find that empty vessels make the most sound.
John Lydon
Image
For me, the best rock is not what you play - it's what you're not playing.

Move to Italy. I mean it: they know about living in debt they don't care. I stayed out there for five months while I was making a film called 'Order Of Death,' and they've really got it sussed. Nice cars. Sharp suits. Great food. Stroll into work at 10. Lunch from 12 till three. Leave work at five. That's living!

Image
It's volatile, the marriage. Which one isn't? Nothing better than a good, full-on row. Get it all out. Say rude and nasty things. And then be sorry. Genuinely sorry, afterwards.
John Lydon
Image
The greatest achievement of my life is enduring a disease that nearly killed me. I came out of it a better person. It's my one great accomplishment - more so than anything else I've done.
John Lydon
Image
Americans being upright and forthright and honest and true to themselves is a very hard concept.
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
Pop music I have always loved best. But the more extreme, fascist-led examples of the music business I tend to detest the most.
John Lydon

'Lollipop Opera' is the backdrop to Finsbury Park. A place that is very thriving, interracial and lot of music stores, Greek, Turkish, all sorts of immigrant music. It's utter Englishness. It blends the Jamaicans, the Irish. It's like what Jim Reeves did with American country music.

I don't need a Rolls-Royce, I don't need a house in the country, I don't need to live in the south of France. I'm quite happy as I am.
