Maybe I'm a prehistoric monster by being an individual. It's highly likely. All I offer to others is their own individuality. Grab it!

I find Lady Gaga hilarious. And I kind of like her. My heart's warmed to her.

Words cannot express quite a lot of feelings, whereas a noise or tone or drone or sound, an accordion falling down a staircase, can somehow capture an emotion much better.

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.

If anyone asks for your autograph they're showing you respect and give it back to them.

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.

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. Nice cars. Sharp suits. Great food. Stroll into work at 10. Lunch from 12 till three. Leave work at five. That's living!

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.

I don't release records to be anything but enjoyable.

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

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.

I could never be a member of a single party. I want the best of all worlds, thank you.
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.

I don't believe in anarchy, because it will ultimately amount to the power of the bully, with weapons. Gandhi is my life's inspiration: passive resistance. I don't want to live in the Thunderdome with Mad Max.

I could take on England, but I couldn't take on one heroin user.

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.

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.

You'll find that empty vessels make the most sound.

For me, the anarchy movement is hilarious. It's all under .org, which is of course government sponsored websites, and then they're all wearing corporate clothing from the Dr.Martin's to the back sacks and the cell phones, they're all flying around on corporate jets and using corporate highways. Very anarchistic!

I like crazy people, especially those who don't see the risk.

I'm just permanently agitated by everything and everyone.
