More quotes by John Lydon
There are some Rolling Stones songs that are just stunners.
John Lydon
I don't like walking in the street and seeing 30,000 copies of myself.
John Lydon
I applaud the effort it takes to put a record together.
John Lydon
Anyone who's parading under a $100,00-plus video is not free from corporate. That's just the MTV advertising agency. I find them all to be just a bit of a sham.
John Lydon
I'm no one's lap dog, you can't put me on a leash.
John Lydon
Meat isn't murder, it's delicious.
John Lydon
I always feel like a bit of an outsider myself, but as a working class lad, the system was always against me. The British system itself and then of course all the illnesses that were challenging to me.
John Lydon
Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?
John Lydon
If dolphins are so intelligent, how come they ain't got Walkmans?
John Lydon
I don't release records to be anything but enjoyable.
John Lydon
Art should be life. It's an imitation of life. It should have some humanity in it.
John Lydon
For me, the best rock is not what you play - it's what you're not playing.
John Lydon
Records were vitally important to the development of music and of all music cultures. With that being pushed by the wayside, I can't see an iPod uniting us. In fact it separates us, the streets are full of people bumping into lamp posts, listening to their own little universe, and there's no sharing in that.
John Lydon
The way the music industry is now geared, it's fewer accolades towards new and upcoming acts. New bands offer bright creativity. It's a set format. A venue would rather hire a DJ than a band, and that's a problem.
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
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
I'm not blowing my own trumpet here, but I made a rap song 20 years ago with Afrika Bambaataa.
John Lydon
Books are like my one and only joy.
John Lydon
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
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.
