More quotes by 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
I'm an unpure purist, something like that.
Keith Richards
What's the big deal about still working? Retirement age is sixty-five, and that's at a normal job - and I ain't there yet.
Keith Richards
My father. I snorted my father. He was cremated and I couldn't resist grinding him up with a little bit of blow.
Keith Richards
If you're cool, you don't know nothing about it. It just is, or you ain't.
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
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
I look for ambiguity when I'm writing because life is ambiguous.
Keith Richards
Art is the last thing I'm worried about when I'm writing a song. As far as I'm concerned, art is just short for 'Arthur.'
Keith Richards
Rock n Roll is music from the neck down.
Keith Richards
Music works in mysterious ways. Once it goes in you have no idea what it can do to you.
Keith Richards
To me, the main thing about living on this planet is to know who the hell you are and be real about it. That's the reason I'm still alive.
Keith Richards
Everybody starts by imitating their heroes. For me it was Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters.
Keith Richards
I never plan anything, which is probably the difference between Mick and myself. Mick needs to know what he's gonna do tomorrow and I'm just happy to wake up to see who's hanging around. Mick's rock and I'm roll.
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
You've got the sun, you've got the moon, and you've got the Rolling Stones.
Keith Richards
I've never had my hair cut by anybody, I do it all myself.
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
You know, the BBC had not been particularly generous in its deliverance of blues and esoteric kinds of music.
Keith Richards
I mean, give me a guitar, give me a piano, give me a broom and string, I wouldn't get bored anywhere.
