More quotes by 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
U2 - that's a band that never should have existed. There's no life experience in any of their songs.
John Lydon
For me, the anarchy movement is hilarious. It's all under .org, which is of course government sponsored websites, and then they're all wearing corporate clothing from the Dr.Martin's to the back sacks and the cell phones, they're all flying around on corporate jets and using corporate highways. Very anarchistic!
John Lydon

John Lydon
Do not stand in the middle, go to the right or to the left.
John Lydon
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
All the things that you would have thought would have made me a professional A1 criminal... wrong. I decided that was too lazy and easy, and because of the way British society is, quite frankly you were denied an education, so I got one of my own.
John Lydon
I'm not blowing my own trumpet here, but I made a rap song 20 years ago with Afrika Bambaataa.
John Lydon
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
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
I like crazy people, especially those who don't see the risk.
John Lydon
I never thought of Green Day as a punk band. Just bubblegum, really.
John Lydon
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
Just because people think politically different to you doesn't mean they're inhuman.
John Lydon
Love is what you feel for a dog or a pussycat. It doesn't apply to humans.
John Lydon
I've done no harm to no one. In fact, I think I've improved the world.
John Lydon
