More quotes by Little Richard
I'm very much a gentleman in what I do.
Little Richard
Rock 'n' roll offered me a platform to speak what I felt. It also offered me a platform to support my mama and my brothers and sisters - twelve children.
Little Richard
God gives us the ability, but rock 'n' roll was created by men.
Little Richard
Elvis was God-given, there's no other explanation. A Messiah comes around every few thousand years, and Elvis was it this time.
Little Richard
I always knew I was a man, always felt that I was a man, always wanted to be a man.
Little Richard
I got a girl named Bony Maronie, she's as skinny as a stick of macaroni.
Little Richard
I did what I felt, and I felt what I did, at all costs.
Little Richard
People called rock & roll 'African music.' They called it 'voodoo music.' They said that it would drive the kids insane. They said that it was just a flash in the pan - the same thing that they always used to say about hip-hop.
Little Richard
I invented rock & roll. Jimi Hendrix was my guitar player. James Brown was my vocalist.
Little Richard
I never heard nobody in my audience call me any kind of names.
Little Richard
I let people know that it was all right to do the kinds of things I did.
Little Richard
I tried to look presentable for a show, but not for sexual attraction. It was strictly for show business.
Little Richard
Gay people are the sweetest, kindest, most artistic, warmest and most thoughtful people in the world. And since the beginning of time all they've ever been is kicked.
Little Richard
No, I've never truly been a minister.
Little Richard
It was a way out of poverty. It was a way to success. It was a way to education. And it was a way to a brighter day for me.
Little Richard
That's what Tina Turner did, too - sang blues up-tempo - and they called it rock 'n' roll.
Little Richard
I never accepted the idea that I had to be guided by some pattern or blueprint.
Little Richard
I thank God for Elvis Presley. I thank the Lord for sending Elvis to open the door so I could walk down the road.
Little Richard
I'm a conductor of revivals. The only minister in the whole package. Little Richard, the evangelist.
Little Richard
If at first you don't succeed, you get back up and you try ... and you try ... and you try it again ... except ice skating, I hate this crap, I quit!
Little Richard
