If you're gonna get wasted, get wasted elegantly.
Keith Richards

About myself I have no great illusions. I know what I am. I know what I'm good at. I know what I ain't. I'm always hoping to surprise myself. But I do have a love of music and I do love to communicate it, and that's the best I can do, really. And I can raise a good family, too.

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.
Keith Richards
Image
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.

Its called a playground, but its nearer to a battlefield. It can be brutal
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
Image
I mean some doctor told me I had six months to live and I went to their funeral.

I'm not getting old I'm evolving.

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.
