Quote

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.

[My favorite decade] probably the '60s, because there were hardly any rules and heroin hadn't shown up, so people hadn't started dying. It was incredibly upbeat, and we almost did change the world. I guess that was the best one .

We never played China, India or Africa. We also haven't played Russia enough. I would love to play those places.

I have never been married, but that doesn't mean that I didn't mate. As you get older you get too many bad habits. Who is ever going to put up with me?

It's just that I am too old now to chase all the woman involved which just seems a shame.

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.

I think that is just about as dishonest as a person giving a bad interview. I despise people like that they don't get two tries. It's all just sensation. It is always bullshit.

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.

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.

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.

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?

It seems that our brave new world is becoming less tolerant, spiritual and educated than it ever was when I was young.

They [The Beatles ] were the first band to write their own songs in Britain because we always just covered American songs before that.

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.

The Beatles had an influence on everybody. You have to realize what an incredible explosion the Beatles were.

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.

I climbed down the outside of a Holiday Inn once just to surprise one of my crew by getting on his balcony and knocking on his window.
