More quotes by John Lydon
Music is a simulation of something, but language is the greatest thing we possess.
John Lydon
I have a sensible set of values that tell me to never lie.
John Lydon
You have moments of grief in life, and if you can put pen to paper and capture that, that's something wonderful. I can revisit actual songs about past deaths, and I know that emotion is as true now as it was then.
John Lydon
As a human being, I'm work in process.
John Lydon
For a gun-toting nation, Americans are surprisingly passive.
John Lydon
The record companies fell apart - quite deservedly. Their corrupting, all-binding contract nonsense had to stop.
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
When you grew up like me and my four brothers, you end up feeling somewhat inadequate, like somehow you don't count.
John Lydon
Stroll into work at 10. Lunch from 12 till three. Leave work at five. That's living!
John Lydon

John Lydon
When you talk like an asshole and look like an asshole, you're an asshole
John Lydon
I applaud the effort it takes to put a record together.
John Lydon
I'm very open about my politics. I don't believe in any political party at all, none of them.
John Lydon
The country you're born in is where your passport comes from. No, not according to Donald Trump! No, not at all. I resent that kind of extremism of any kind. Left wing, right wing. Anyway at all. Anything that judges other people so harshly and across the board stupidity-wise. I got no time for that.
John Lydon
Punks in their silly leather jackets are a cliché. I have never liked the term and have never discussed it. I just got on with it and got out of it when it became a competition.
John Lydon
I'm not going to pontificate and tell you to execute your government at dawn, but it wouldn't be a bad idea.
John Lydon
Just because people think politically different to you doesn't mean they're inhuman.
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
I like lime-flavoured yoghurt. The end. There is no religion. It’s a man-made fabrication. Once you understand that, you’ll be a happier individual. Atheism is as pointless as satanism.
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
