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.

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.
John Lydon

I love books, and all the best ones are people analysing their own emotions. You can learn from that.
John Lydon

You can always wake up on the wrong side of the bed and boo-hiss everyone suffers. We can all be temperamental.

I don't listen to music. I hate music.
