More quotes by 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
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
I wouldn't warm to [Chuck Berry] even if I was cremated next to him.
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
I'm not getting old I'm evolving.
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
I haven't stopped smoking...anything
Keith Richards
I mean some doctor told me I had six months to live and I went to their funeral.
Keith Richards
If you're cool, you don't know nothing about it. It just is, or you ain't.
Keith Richards
You're always learning about this thing everytime you pick it up
Keith Richards
The rock's easy, but the roll is another thing.
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 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
Rap - so many words, so little said.
