More quotes by 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
The sounds of anger are not melodic.
John Lydon
The record companies fell apart - quite deservedly. Their corrupting, all-binding contract nonsense had to stop.
John Lydon
I like crazy people, especially those who don't see the risk.
John Lydon
'Lollipop Opera' is the backdrop to Finsbury Park. A place that is very thriving, interracial and lot of music stores, Greek, Turkish, all sorts of immigrant music. It's utter Englishness. It blends the Jamaicans, the Irish. It's like what Jim Reeves did with American country music.
John Lydon
Oscar Wilde turned the world upside down and was able to laugh at it, and hopefully by the time I'm 120 and worn out, that's what I will achieve. I love being alive so much.
John Lydon
These days young kids don't have any place to form an epic adventure. It's more often in front of the TV screen or a laptop. That's very hard on them. They're being taught daily unsocial skills. Facebook is an unsocial skill. It's so sad.
John Lydon
As a young concert-going person, I was never enamoured with celebrities who would walk out to feature in certain songs and then walk off.
John Lydon
I don't like walking in the street and seeing 30,000 copies of myself.
John Lydon
I'm just permanently agitated by everything and everyone.
John Lydon
As a human being, I'm work in process.
John Lydon
If you are pissing people off, you know you are doing something right
John Lydon
I have no time for lies and fantasy, and neither should you. Enjoy or die.
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
Michael Jackson plays the wounded puppy very well. 'I must be the loneliest man in the world'. Well, you're not a man. And the loneliness is self inflicted, so sod off you pathetic puerile pimp. I wonder what color his willy is.
John Lydon
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
When you grew up like me and my four brothers, you end up feeling somewhat inadequate, like somehow you don't count.
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 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
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
