More quotes by John Lydon
If dolphins are so intelligent, how come they ain't got Walkmans?
John Lydon
When you talk like an asshole and look like an asshole, you're an asshole
John Lydon
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.
John Lydon
If you can sort out why you feel the way you do then you might be in better shape to meet your maker.
John Lydon
Music is escapism from the grim realities of life. But then as soon as you escape into the music, from my point of view, I found I had to deal with the very things that I thought I was running away from. I wanted to hit those problems on the head and resolve them. So they didn't remain as issues in my psyche.
John Lydon
I keep falling off the edge of the stage because I can't see it. I can't see my wrinkles in the mirror either, though.
John Lydon
Love is 2 minutes and 52 seconds of squelching noises.
John Lydon
Do not stand in the middle, go to the right or to the left.
John Lydon
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
I will always pay respect and homage to my early years, because that's what gave me the initial push to go on and do what it is I do. That's where I learned the love and respect for music.
John Lydon
If you give me the chance, I'll destroy America for you.
John Lydon
This is a very difficult thing to remain independent and persistent.
John Lydon
I find Lady Gaga hilarious. And I kind of like her. My heart's warmed to her.
John Lydon
Here's how I understand music. If you can play the same bunch of noise twice, it's music. To go beyond that is supercilious and pontificating.
John Lydon
I could never be a member of a single party. I want the best of all worlds, thank you.
John Lydon
I don't understand the art of compromise, and it's a shame the politicians don't understand that as well, you know, we might have a better, clearer world. But then saying that, we might also get a lot of Donald Trump's running left right and centre.
John Lydon
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
I never thought of Green Day as a punk band. Just bubblegum, really.
John Lydon
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
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
