Quote

I'm not great at dealing with death, I have to say. I find death very hard: my mum, my dad, Sid Vicious. I'm not a monster I feel it and it scares me. One death at a time, please, is all my heart will bear.

John Lydon

I like America's diversity and its landscapes.
John Lydon
Image
When you grew up like me and my four brothers, you end up feeling somewhat inadequate, like somehow you don't count.
John Lydon
Image
People should never allow themselves to be dictated to by media.
John Lydon
Image
What I like or dislike in music is my internal affair. I never want an audience out there to be influenced because John said. I don't want to have to endure that kind of nonsense. I work for the art of the individual.
John Lydon
Image
My words are my bullets.
John Lydon
Image
I'm not this callous clown walking around laughing at life all the time. I've had some serious, serious problems in my life. But I've come out with a smile.
John Lydon

Americans being upright and forthright and honest and true to themselves is a very hard concept.
John Lydon
Image
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
Image
Situationism is a ludicrous proposition. It's ill-formed and it's perfectly French. That Gallic disposition towards common sense. L'Anarchie!
John Lydon
Image
Let's escape the past. The past didn't work. All we have is the future, and I'm the one who wrote no future for you! Don't let the irony be lost.
John Lydon
Image
I love discordancy. It makes people ill at ease and wakes up a part of their brain that's normally asleep.
John Lydon
Image
The day I run out of ideas is the day I stop making records.
John Lydon
Image
There are some Rolling Stones songs that are just stunners.
John Lydon
Image
The record companies fell apart - quite deservedly. Their corrupting, all-binding contract nonsense had to stop.
John Lydon
Image
Art should be life. It's an imitation of life. It should have some humanity in it.
John Lydon
Image
I'm very open about my politics. I don't believe in any political party at all, none of them.
John Lydon
Image
Here's how I understand music. If you can play the same bunch of noise twice, it's music. To go beyond that is supercilious and pontificating.
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
I'm not able to tell you what the best song is yet, because there's more to come. I feel that in me. I can still feel the burning energy and the desire to create and create and create.
John Lydon
Image
I will always pay respect and homage to my early years, because that's what gave me the initial push to go on and do what it is I do. That's where I learned the love and respect for music.
