More quotes by 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
Some people think I'm a mythical genius, others think I'm a junkie madman.
Keith Richards
If you're going to kick authority in the teeth, you might as well use both feet.
Keith Richards
It's great to be here. It's great to be anywhere.
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
True friends. Hardest thing to find, but you never look for them - they found you you just grow into each other
Keith Richards
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
You've got the sun, you've got the moon, and you've got the Rolling Stones.
Keith Richards
Everyone talks about rock these days the problem is they forget about the roll.
Keith Richards
I've never had my hair cut by anybody, I do it all myself.
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
My life is full of broken halos.
Keith Richards

Keith Richards
Its called a playground, but its nearer to a battlefield. It can be brutal
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
Rap - so many words, so little said.
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
I'm an unpure purist, something like that.
Keith Richards
I was number 1 on the who's likely to die list for 10 years...I was really disappointed when I fell off that list.
Keith Richards
When I started, all I wanted to do was play like Chuck (Berry)
