We know what we are doing by now.We seem to make an album every 18 months or so and I think every band should do that. We're not writing Sgt. Pepper every time we are writing straight ahead rock n' roll.
Lemmy Kilmister
We sent out tapes to the others but they didn't wake up. It was worth it just to have one kid wake up. I got to meet him after he woke up.
Lemmy Kilmister
Eric Clapton wrote Layla when he was coked out of his mind. Later on, it nearly killed him.
Lemmy Kilmister
Safe sex, safe music, safe clothing, safe hair spray, safe ozone layer. Too late! Everything that's been achieved in the history of mankind has been achieved by not being safe.
Lemmy Kilmister
...what happened in New York and Washington is the same thing that England and America did to Berlin every day for three years during World War II -- and Germany did the same thing to England.
Lemmy Kilmister
We never played China, India or Africa. We also haven't played Russia enough. I would love to play those places.
Lemmy Kilmister
All you got in life is your honor, man, your own self-image, your own self-respect. If you lose that, or if you give it away or if you sell it, then you ain't got it no more.
Lemmy Kilmister
You haven't been soiling your soul in public for years like we have.
Lemmy Kilmister
There are a lot of good books around. People don't read any more. It's a sad state of affairs. Reading's the only thing that allows you to use your imagination. When you watch films it's someone else's vision, isn't it?
Lemmy Kilmister
In my life so far, I have discovered that there are really only two kinds of people: those who are for you, and those who are against you. Learn to recognize them, for they are often and easily mistaken for each other.
Lemmy Kilmister
How many times can a rock star go over the top on drugs? How many times can a rock star be unfaithful to his old lady? It is really fu**ing boring, and that is what they do over and over and over. They just print the same sh*t.
Lemmy Kilmister
It became kind of a fad in the late '70s to try to help people wake up out of comas by hearing things that they liked. I remember we sent out about six tapes. We heard that we were this one kid's favorite band so we sent a tape that said, Hey this is Motörhead. It's time to wake up.
Lemmy Kilmister
People don't want to see the guy next door on the stage, they want to see a being from another planet. You want to see somebody you'd never meet in ordinary life.
Lemmy Kilmister
When George [Harrison] died the guards at Buckingham Palace played a medley of George's songs during the changing of the guard that sort of thing never happens.
Lemmy Kilmister
Every generation thinks they are stronger than the generation before it. They think, It can't happen to me. In the past people have died making that same mistake.
Lemmy Kilmister
Born to lose. Live to win.
Lemmy Kilmister
People changing because they think they should is not a good idea, because I just don't think they should, really.
Lemmy Kilmister
As you go through life's rich tapestry, you realize that most people you meet aren't fit to shine your shoes. It's a sad fact, but it's true. A good friend is someone who'd hide you if you were on the run for murder. How many of them do you know?
Lemmy Kilmister
I don't do regrets. Regrets are pointless. It's too late for regrets. You've already done it, haven't you? You've lived your life. No point wishing you could change it.
Lemmy Kilmister
Sex, death and war. And justice. There's no shortage of lyrics there.
