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.

More quotes by John Lydon
Rules are important, but they're temporary and they're always supposed to be changed.
John Lydon
I'm not able to tell you what the best song is yet, because there's more to come. I feel that in me. I can still feel the burning energy and the desire to create and create and create.
John Lydon
Books are like my one and only joy.
John Lydon
Dummy Dum Dum was my nickname for years at school. I was the strange one of the family, the one who couldn't remember his name.
John Lydon
I could take on England, but I couldn't take on one heroin user.
John Lydon
If the Royal Family was going to assassinate someone, they would have gotten rid of me a long time ago.
John Lydon
It's an absurdity to just wish for a world of chaos without anything viable in its place. I'm loyal to my culture, my creed, the human race and my people and I don't want to see them all end up in a Mad Max movie.
John Lydon
You'll find that empty vessels make the most sound.
John Lydon
I keep falling off the edge of the stage because I can't see it. I can't see my wrinkles in the mirror either, though.
John Lydon
I applaud the effort it takes to put a record together.
John Lydon
I think national pride leads to nothing but wars and hate.
John Lydon
There are some Rolling Stones songs that are just stunners.
John Lydon
I never take any commitment lightly, and I certainly don’t take my wife lightly. I never did and I never will. That’s permanent. That’s true love.
John Lydon
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
I don't need a Rolls-Royce, I don't need a house in the country, I don't need to live in the south of France. I'm quite happy as I am.
John Lydon
I love Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart because they're bringing irony back into American humor, which is a delicious treat. The entire Colbert persona of being extreme right-wing when he's not at all is highly amusing. He does it so well, but sometimes a little too well. My wife is convinced he's completely that way.
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
Love is two minutes fifty-two seconds of squishing noises. It shows your mind isn't clicking right.
John Lydon
It's nice to be a part of history but people should get it right. I may not be perfect, but I'm bloody close.
John Lydon
I never wore a studded leather jacket, y'know. Ne-va! If I had had the money I wouldn't have spent it on shit like that.
