Nobody wants to get old, but nobody wants to die young either.
Keith Richards
If you are going to get wasted, then get wasted elegantly.
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
A painter's got a canvas. The writer's got reams of empty paper. A musician has silence.
Keith Richards
I like it here in Austin. Anybody got a room?

Keith Richards
Songwriting's a weird game.
Keith Richards
You get onstage and make other people feel happy. Make them feel good.
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
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
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

Keith Richards
It might appear that nothing is happening, but that's actually when it really happens.
Keith Richards
The only things Mick and I disagree about is the band, the music and what we do.
Keith Richards
You've got the sun, you've got the moon, and you've got the Rolling Stones.
Keith Richards
I mean some doctor told me I had six months to live and I went to their funeral.
Keith Richards
I mean, give me a guitar, give me a piano, give me a broom and string, I wouldn't get bored anywhere.
Keith Richards
Guitar is easy, all it takes is 5 fingers, 6 strings and 1 a**hole
Keith Richards
I looked upon myself, in a sort of romantic and silly way, as like a laboratory.
Keith Richards
