Good music comes out of people playing together, knowing what they want to do and going for it. You have to sweat over it and bug it to death. You can't do it by pushing buttons and watching a TV screen.

More quotes by Keith Richards
If you're gonna get wasted, get wasted elegantly.
Keith Richards
My life is full of broken halos.
Keith Richards

Keith Richards
I look for ambiguity when I'm writing because life is ambiguous.
Keith Richards
Songwriting's a weird game.
Keith Richards
There was a knock on our dressing-room door. Our manager shouted, 'Keith! Ron! The Police are here!' Oh, man, we panicked, flushed everything down the john. Then the door opened and it was Stewart Copeland and Sting.
Keith Richards
I'm not getting old I'm evolving.
Keith Richards
I've got nothing against daylight. I don't live totally nocturnally. Only when I feel like it. Which is most of the time.
Keith Richards
True friends. Hardest thing to find, but you never look for them - they found you you just grow into each other
Keith Richards
I was number 1 on the who's likely to die list for 10 years...I was really disappointed when I fell off that list.
Keith Richards
Music works in mysterious ways. Once it goes in you have no idea what it can do to you.
Keith Richards
Music is a language that doesn’t speak in particular words. It speaks in emotions, and if it’s in the bones, it’s in the bones.
Keith Richards
I mean some doctor told me I had six months to live and I went to their funeral.
Keith Richards
I mean, give me a guitar, give me a piano, give me a broom and string, I wouldn't get bored anywhere.
Keith Richards
When I started, all I wanted to do was play like Chuck (Berry)
Keith Richards
Some things get better with age. Like me.
Keith Richards
The big rules of knife fighting are (a) do not try it at home, and (b) the whole point is never, ever use the blade. It is there to distract your opponent. While he stares at the gleaming steel, you kick his balls to kingdom come--he's all yours. Just a tip!
Keith Richards
[joking about the length of the Rolling Stones' career] You have the sun, you have the moon, you have the air that you breathe - and you have the Rolling Stones!
Keith Richards
I looked upon myself, in a sort of romantic and silly way, as like a laboratory.
Keith Richards
If you stay up, you get the songs that everyone else misses because they're asleep.
Keith Richards
