You know, I've been to some superstars' houses, and I've been really disgusted when I see their platinum discs hanging in the toilet. They're just there on the walls glaring at you when you're trying to be occupied with other things.

More quotes by John Lydon
I'm just permanently agitated by everything and everyone.
John Lydon
Do not stand in the middle, go to the right or to the left.
John Lydon
Meat isn't murder, it's delicious.
John Lydon
For me, the best rock is not what you play - it's what you're not playing.
John Lydon
I love Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart because they're bringing irony back into American humor, which is a delicious treat. The entire Colbert persona of being extreme right-wing when he's not at all is highly amusing. He does it so well, but sometimes a little too well. My wife is convinced he's completely that way.
John Lydon
You're made to feel ugly, and I made ugly beautiful. Just by sheer persistence. Nobody has the right to say that I am ugly, and I will not be a professional victim, you know. Sorry!
John Lydon
Love is two minutes fifty-two seconds of squishing noises. It shows your mind isn't clicking right.
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
I'm a great self-doubter. I constantly need to prove myself to myself. I've never run to heroin or alcohol to hide that. I always have to deal with it. Stage fright is always going to be there. I have nightmares about bad gigs.
John Lydon
For me people are people, without meaning to sound corny, it's a plain natural fact, music is a universal language and I've always known that and observed that and treated music with great respect accordingly.
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
Situationism is a ludicrous proposition. It's ill-formed and it's perfectly French. That Gallic disposition towards common sense. L'Anarchie!
John Lydon
I'm no one's lap dog, you can't put me on a leash.
John Lydon
I have a sensible set of values that tell me to never lie.
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
If anyone asks for your autograph they're showing you respect and give it back to them.
John Lydon
If you have something to say then you want someone to pay attention or at least to have the opportunity for them to tell you to shut up and go away.
John Lydon
For me all governments are my enemies and I've never made any bones about it any other way other than directly, and I don't fly the left flag or the right flag, me, I'm common sense.
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 don't need a Rolls-Royce, I don't need a house in the country, I don't need to live in the south of France. I'm quite happy as I am.
John Lydon
