More quotes by Keith Richards
Some things get better with age. Like me.
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 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
I've never had my hair cut by anybody, I do it all myself.
Keith Richards
I like it here in Austin. Anybody got a room?
Keith Richards
Everyone talks about rock these days the problem is they forget about the roll.
Keith Richards

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.
Keith Richards
Some people think I'm a mythical genius, others think I'm a junkie madman.
Keith Richards
If you stay up, you get the songs that everyone else misses because they're asleep.
Keith Richards
You know, the BBC had not been particularly generous in its deliverance of blues and esoteric kinds of music.
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
I'm not getting old I'm evolving.
Keith Richards
It's an addiction... and addiction is something I should know something about.
Keith Richards
A painter's got a canvas. The writer's got reams of empty paper. A musician has silence.
Keith Richards
To me, it's important to prove that this isn't just teenage kids' s**t and you should feel embarrassed when you're over forty and still doing it.
Keith Richards
If you are going to get wasted, then get wasted elegantly.
Keith Richards
I don't think rock n' roll songwriters should worry about art. I don't think it comes into it...as far as I'm concerned, Art is just short for Arthur.
Keith Richards
Music works in mysterious ways. Once it goes in you have no idea what it can do to you.
