More quotes by Keith Richards
The only things Mick and I disagree about is the band, the music and what we do.
Keith Richards
I look for ambiguity when I'm writing because life is ambiguous.
Keith Richards
My life is full of broken halos.
Keith Richards
You see, to me, the art of music is listening to it, not playing it. The real art of it is hearing it.
Keith Richards
Nobody wants to get old, but nobody wants to die young either.
Keith Richards
I looked upon myself, in a sort of romantic and silly way, as like a laboratory.
Keith Richards
Retire? I can't spell the word. I'd play in a wheelchair.
Keith Richards
You don't find a style. A style finds you
Keith Richards
It's an addiction... and addiction is something I should know something about.
Keith Richards
The idea of retiring is like killing yourself. It's almost like Hari Kari. I intend to live to a 100 and go down in history.
Keith Richards
One minute I'm standing at Ronnie Scott's getting a standing ovation and the next minute, I'm on a marble slab
Keith Richards
If you're going to kick authority in the teeth, you might as well use both feet.
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
[John] Belushi was an extreme experience even by my standards.
Keith Richards
If you say I'm great, thank you very much. But I know what I am. I could be better, man, you know?
Keith Richards
I'm an unpure purist, something like that.
Keith Richards
There's just certain styles of playing that you do play in your own way. Maybe it's in the way your fingers bend, for all I know. And so whenever you pick up the guitar it's not so much the sound of the instrument itself, it's like the ting that you add onto it-the attitude.
Keith Richards
The electric guitar was vital in helping what I've achieved where would I be without it? Playing awfully quietly, for a start.
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
To a musician or songwriter, your canvas is silence.
Keith Richards
