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.

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.

Good music comes out of people playing together, knowing what they want to do and going for it. You have to sweat over it and bug it to death. You can't do it by pushing buttons and watching a TV screen.

If you stay up, you get the songs that everyone else misses because they're asleep.
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

Some of my most outrageous nights- I can only believe actually happened because of corroborating evidence. No wonder I'm famous for partying! The ultimate party- if it's any good- you can't remember it.
Keith Richards

I consider my job [being a musician] is to have a little idea and nurture it and put it in some form that everybody else can understand and then sort of pass it on. It's really a passing through. In other words, you receive and you transmit.

You see, to me, the art of music is listening to it, not playing it. The real art of it is hearing it.

Before Elvis, everything was in black and white. Then came Elvis. Zoom, glorious Technicolor.
