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
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
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
You can always wake up on the wrong side of the bed and boo-hiss everyone suffers. We can all be temperamental.
John Lydon
I've done no harm to no one. In fact, I think I've improved the world.
John Lydon
Love is what you feel for a dog or a pussycat. It doesn't apply to humans.
John Lydon
Art should be life. It's an imitation of life. It should have some humanity in it.
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
The sounds of anger are not melodic.
John Lydon
It's volatile, the marriage. Which one isn't? Nothing better than a good, full-on row. Get it all out. Say rude and nasty things. And then be sorry. Genuinely sorry, afterwards.
John Lydon
I somehow hope - naïve though I may be, utopian, possibly - that my music has some kind of calming effect on the universe, that it's somehow beneficial to people.
John Lydon
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.
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
Books are like my one and only joy.
John Lydon
Freedom isn't to do what you want at somebody else's expense.
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
I think national pride leads to nothing but wars and hate.
John Lydon
Americans being upright and forthright and honest and true to themselves is a very hard concept.
John Lydon
One of the most beautiful things about Britain, apart from the NHS and the free education, is the British Army.
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
Don't accept the old order. Get rid of it.
John Lydon
