If dolphins are so intelligent, how come they ain't got Walkmans?
John Lydon

Music is escapism from the grim realities of life. But then as soon as you escape into the music, from my point of view, I found I had to deal with the very things that I thought I was running away from. I wanted to hit those problems on the head and resolve them. So they didn't remain as issues in my psyche.

I love conversation and the sharing of different thoughts and philosophies. That kind of stuff always makes me happy. I don't mind interviews, either - I like doing them.

If you are pissing people off, you know you are doing something right

Love is two minutes fifty-two seconds of squishing noises. It shows your mind isn't clicking right.
John Lydon

Situationism is a ludicrous proposition. It's ill-formed and it's perfectly French. That Gallic disposition towards common sense. L'Anarchie!

Music is a simulation of something, but language is the greatest thing we possess.

Books are like my one and only joy.

I love boating - not flash, 'noisy go fast' nonsense, but the general relaxation of it. My wife and I love to get in our little Wellcraft and go as far out to sea as we can, hopefully beyond land. That is the best thing you can ever do. It clears your psyche.

Punk became a circus didn't it? Everybody got it wrong. The message was supposed to be: Don't follow us, do what you want!

'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.

I never thought of Green Day as a punk band. Just bubblegum, really.

I'm not going to pontificate and tell you to execute your government at dawn, but it wouldn't be a bad idea.
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.

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.

Meat isn't murder, it's delicious.

My words are my bullets.

For a gun-toting nation, Americans are surprisingly passive.
John Lydon

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.
