More quotes by Keith Richards
I'm an unpure purist, something like that.
Keith Richards
It's an addiction... and addiction is something I should know something about.
Keith Richards
If you are going to get wasted, then get wasted elegantly.
Keith Richards
The only new technology that interests me is when it sort of throws me back soundwise. And I can think, Wow, that means I can go onstage and sound like Scotty Moore now and again!
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
I'd play whenever I could get my hands on an electric guitar I was trying to pick up rock'n'roll riffs and electric blues - the latest Muddy Waters. I'd spend hours and hours on the same track, back again, and back again.
Keith Richards
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.
Keith Richards
The rock's easy, but the roll is another thing.
Keith Richards
I mean some doctor told me I had six months to live and I went to their funeral.
Keith Richards
This is the rock 'n' roll life, and you had to invent it as you went along. There was no textbook to say how you operate this machinery.
Keith Richards
It's great to be here. It's great to be anywhere.
Keith Richards
Hey, we just enjoy it. I think we think we're getting the hang of this thing, you know?
Keith Richards
The big rules of knife fighting are (a) do not try it at home, and (b) the whole point is never, ever use the blade. It is there to distract your opponent. While he stares at the gleaming steel, you kick his balls to kingdom come--he's all yours. Just a tip!
Keith Richards
[John] Belushi was an extreme experience even by my standards.
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
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
George Jones is a national treasure and should be treated accordingly. A unique style so often emulated even inadvertently.
Keith Richards
I've never turned blue in someone else's bathroom. I consider that the height of bad manners.
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 see, to me, the art of music is listening to it, not playing it. The real art of it is hearing it.
Keith Richards
