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.

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.

I have values. But morals are Christian. There's no religion here. Values. Don't hurt when you don't need to, but don't let anybody step over that line - it's an invisible line, but it's respect for somebody's space.

John Lydon
Image
It seems like the more I punish myself, the better it's been. What it is, I'm relentless and I never give up. I never take the easy way out.
John Lydon
Image
Love is two minutes fifty-two seconds of squishing noises. It shows your mind isn't clicking right.
John Lydon
Image
I have no time for lies and fantasy, and neither should you. Enjoy or die.
John Lydon

Just because people think politically different to you doesn't mean they're inhuman.
John Lydon
Image
You should never, ever be understood completely. That's like the kiss of death, isn't it? It's a full stop. I don't ever think you should put full stops on thoughts. They change.
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
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.

There are no limits to where our brains can take us. We are, if there be a God, God's gracious creation.
