More quotes by John Lydon
It's no good being nice and young and naive. There's no good in that at all. You've got to do it all yourself, and you've gotta learn quick. And you can't look for sympathy either.
John Lydon
I never wore a studded leather jacket, y'know. Ne-va! If I had had the money I wouldn't have spent it on shit like that.
John Lydon
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
Freedom isn't to do what you want at somebody else's expense.
John Lydon
It's nice to be a part of history but people should get it right. I may not be perfect, but I'm bloody close.
John Lydon
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!
John Lydon
I love discordancy. It makes people ill at ease and wakes up a part of their brain that's normally asleep.
John Lydon
Some visualize the Pistols era in shades of black and white. It wasn't. Actually, the colors I envision are neon or army dirt green with fluorescent pink--anything that would annoy.
John Lydon
Only the fakes survive.
John Lydon
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.
John Lydon
I've never said I'm a communist.
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
I'm no one's lap dog, you can't put me on a leash.
John Lydon
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.
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
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
My way of thinking as I approach any human being on this planet is, 'What are you doing now?' That's what interests me. I don't come at anybody with a whole bunch of assumptions.
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
Punk became a circus didn't it? Everybody got it wrong. The message was supposed to be: Don't follow us, do what you want!
John Lydon
Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?
