More quotes by 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
The only things Mick and I disagree about is the band, the music and what we do.
Keith Richards
George Jones is a national treasure and should be treated accordingly. A unique style so often emulated even inadvertently.
Keith Richards
If you are going to get wasted, then get wasted elegantly.
Keith Richards
When you're supported by millions all over the world, you can either go nuts, or try to feed off the goodwill.
Keith Richards
I wouldn't warm to [Chuck Berry] even if I was cremated next to him.
Keith Richards
The Beatles were basically a vocal band.
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
Nobody wants to get old, but nobody wants to die young either.
Keith Richards
When I listen to what I did under the influence - 10 years of work - I don't think it either enhanced or impaired me. It didn't have that much to do with it.
Keith Richards
I consider my job [being a musician] is to have a little idea and nurture it and put it in some form that everybody else can understand and then sort of pass it on. It's really a passing through. In other words, you receive and you transmit.
Keith Richards
I've never had my hair cut by anybody, I do it all myself.
Keith Richards
Poison's not bad. It's a matter of how much.
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
To me, life is a wild animal. You hope to deal with it when it leaps at you.
Keith Richards
If you say I'm great, thank you very much. But I know what I am. I could be better, man, you know?
Keith Richards
Songwriting's a weird game.
Keith Richards
Retire? I can't spell the word. I'd play in a wheelchair.
Keith Richards
From the 12th Congressional District Hopeful William Jefferson Clinton during the Nixon investigations. I wanted to share some information I've turned up regarding two of your Clinton quotes.
Keith Richards
Before Elvis, everything was in black and white. Then came Elvis. Zoom, glorious Technicolor.
