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

Some people think I'm a mythical genius, others think I'm a junkie madman.
Keith Richards
Image
Yes, I've been trepanned. That's quite an interesting experience, especially for my brain surgeon, who saw my thoughts flying around in my brain.

Keith Richards
Image
Its called a playground, but its nearer to a battlefield. It can be brutal
Keith Richards
Image
Everyone talks about rock these days the problem is they forget about the roll.
Keith Richards

George Jones is a national treasure and should be treated accordingly. A unique style so often emulated even inadvertently.
Keith Richards
Image
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.

Songwriting's a weird game.
Keith Richards
Image
When you're supported by millions all over the world, you can either go nuts, or try to feed off the goodwill.
Keith Richards
Image
To make a rock'n'roll record, technology is the least important thing.
Keith Richards
Image
I'm not getting old I'm evolving.
