Quote

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.

I've never said I'm a communist.
John Lydon

You can always wake up on the wrong side of the bed and boo-hiss everyone suffers. We can all be temperamental.
John Lydon
Image
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
Image
If anyone asks for your autograph they're showing you respect and give it back to them.
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
Image
I'm a great self-doubter. I constantly need to prove myself to myself. I've never run to heroin or alcohol to hide that. I always have to deal with it. Stage fright is always going to be there. I have nightmares about bad gigs.

It's nice to be irritated. It's a very joyous thing.
John Lydon
Image
For me, I'll always stand up for the disenfranchised, and I'm going to make a big point of that. I'm not a protest singer as such, you know? After the endurance course of the early 70s and 60s, I don't want to become one of them twats. But you got to learn to speak the truth.

I hate the technological rip-offs that pass for music formats these days, and go back to vinyl to hear a good record because the sound is always so much fuller. I don't even like listening to music in the car.
John Lydon
Image
I don't listen to music. I hate music.
John Lydon
Image
I don't understand the art of compromise, and it's a shame the politicians don't understand that as well, you know, we might have a better, clearer world. But then saying that, we might also get a lot of Donald Trump's running left right and centre.

Love is 2 minutes and 52 seconds of squelching noises.
John Lydon
Image
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.

Books are like my one and only joy.
John Lydon
Image
If I'm left to my own devices, I will be tempted to make the most unlistenable music possible.

Image
I find Lady Gaga hilarious. And I kind of like her. My heart's warmed to her.
John Lydon
Image
U2 - that's a band that never should have existed. There's no life experience in any of their songs.
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
It's no good being nice and young and naive. There's no good in that at all. You've got to do it all yourself, and you've gotta learn quick. And you can't look for sympathy either.
John Lydon
Image
For me people are people, without meaning to sound corny, it's a plain natural fact, music is a universal language and I've always known that and observed that and treated music with great respect accordingly.
