More quotes by Keith Richards
If you stay up, you get the songs that everyone else misses because they're asleep.
Keith Richards
I wouldn't warm to [Chuck Berry] even if I was cremated next to him.
Keith Richards
Good music comes out of people playing together, knowing what they want to do and going for it. You have to sweat over it and bug it to death. You can't do it by pushing buttons and watching a TV screen.
Keith Richards
It might appear that nothing is happening, but that's actually when it really happens.
Keith Richards
I've never had my hair cut by anybody, I do it all myself.
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
What Muddy Waters did for us is what we should do for others. It's the old thing, what you want written on your tombstone as a musician: 'He passed it on.'
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
Hey, we just enjoy it. I think we think we're getting the hang of this thing, you know?
Keith Richards
Everybody thinks you reach a certain age and you're a grownup, but it's not true. Nobody grows up until the day they croak.
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.
Keith Richards
Poison's not bad. It's a matter of how much.
Keith Richards
I don't regret nuthin.
Keith Richards
I'm an unpure purist, something like that.
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
To make a rock'n'roll record, technology is the least important thing.
Keith Richards
This is the rock 'n' roll life, and you had to invent it as you went along. There was no textbook to say how you operate this machinery.
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
Rap - so many words, so little said.
Keith Richards
Nobody wants to get old, but nobody wants to die young either.
Keith Richards
