More quotes by Keith Richards

Keith Richards
But I'm not here just to make records and money. I'm here to say something and to touch other people, sometimes in a cry of desperation: Do you know this feeling?
Keith Richards

Keith Richards
It's good to be anywhere.
Keith Richards
Some people think I'm a mythical genius, others think I'm a junkie madman.
Keith Richards
To me, life is a wild animal. You hope to deal with it when it leaps at you.
Keith Richards
I never plan anything, which is probably the difference between Mick and myself. Mick needs to know what he's gonna do tomorrow and I'm just happy to wake up to see who's hanging around. Mick's rock and I'm roll.
Keith Richards
I mean some doctor told me I had six months to live and I went to their funeral.
Keith Richards
It's great to be here. It's great to be anywhere.
Keith Richards
Rap - so many words, so little said.
Keith Richards
There's a demon in me, and he's still around. Without the dope, we have a bit more of a chat these days.
