More quotes by Keith Richards
About myself I have no great illusions. I know what I am. I know what I'm good at. I know what I ain't. I'm always hoping to surprise myself. But I do have a love of music and I do love to communicate it, and that's the best I can do, really. And I can raise a good family, too.
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
It might appear that nothing is happening, but that's actually when it really happens.
Keith Richards

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 mean, give me a guitar, give me a piano, give me a broom and string, I wouldn't get bored anywhere.
Keith Richards
You've got the sun, you've got the moon, and you've got the Rolling Stones.
Keith Richards
Rap - so many words, so little said.
Keith Richards
I look for ambiguity when I'm writing because life is ambiguous.
Keith Richards
To make a rock'n'roll record, technology is the least important thing.
Keith Richards
I haven't stopped smoking...anything
Keith Richards
I can sustain the impetus over the long tours we do is by feeding off the energy that we get back from an audience. That's my fuel. All i've got is this burning energy, especially when i've got a guitar in my hands.
