If you're cool, you don't know nothing about it. It just is, or you ain't.
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
The idea of retiring is like killing yourself. It's almost like Hari Kari. I intend to live to a 100 and go down in history.
Keith Richards
Image
I've got nothing against daylight. I don't live totally nocturnally. Only when I feel like it. Which is most of the time.
Keith Richards
Image
Some people think I'm a mythical genius, others think I'm a junkie madman.
Keith Richards
Image
Guitar is easy, all it takes is 5 fingers, 6 strings and 1 a**hole
Keith Richards
Image
You've got the sun, you've got the moon, and you've got the Rolling Stones.
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
Some things get better with age. Like me.
Keith Richards

When I started, all I wanted to do was play like Chuck (Berry)
Keith Richards
Image
Treat each guitar track-and each song-completely different. For example, if I'm using a certain amp and guitar on one track, I'll deliberately use something else for the next tune or overdub.
Keith Richards
Image
Music works in mysterious ways. Once it goes in you have no idea what it can do to you.
Keith Richards
Image
I wouldn't warm to [Chuck Berry] even if I was cremated next to him.
Keith Richards
Image
Before Elvis, everything was in black and white. Then came Elvis. Zoom, glorious Technicolor.
Keith Richards
Image
I never sleep alone. If there is no one to sleep next to, I'll sleep next to a stuffed animal. It makes me feel secure and safe. It's a little embarrassing to admit it I'm an old man now. It's important to me though.
Keith Richards
Image
Music is a necessity. After food, air, water and warmth, music is the next necessity of life.
Keith Richards
Image
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
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Well, I'm not putting death on the agenda. I don't want to see my old friend Lucifer just yet. He's the guy I'm gonna see, isn't it? I'm not going to the Other Place, let's face it.
