It's OK to quote from your past. But I'm more interested in quoting from my present and pointing towards the future.

More quotes by Robert Plant
I met some people who help in an archeological project in the South Pacific, between sailing to the Marquesas, which is an island group not too far from Tahiti, and I think, Wouldn't that be great? I have such a fascination with history and especially history in my own country.
Robert Plant
I treat everywhere as being a center from which I can enjoy the surroundings. And so Austin is very stimulating. I'm familiar with a lot of very charming people who have brought a lot of color to my life and a lot of love.
Robert Plant
People say that I'm a millionaire, but that's not true - I only spend millions.
Robert Plant
(`Stairway to Heaven' is) a nice pleasant, well-meaning naive little song, very English. It's not the definitive Led Zeppelin song. `Kashmir' is.
Robert Plant
I was young - I was 20 years old. Now I have the gift of perspective and I feel pretty good about it.
Robert Plant
The past is a stepping stone, not a millstone.
Robert Plant
If I didn't do what I do, I wouldn't be as young as I am.
Robert Plant
To rock isn't necessarily to cavort.
Robert Plant
People have got to let their bodies breathe a little bit more. That's the great thing about being a pompous, jumped-up rock god. There's plenty of air around you.
Robert Plant
You know sometimes words have two meanings.
Robert Plant
I am a reflection of what I sing. Sometimes I have to get serious because the things Ive been through are serious.
Robert Plant
I love the feeling of letting fly, of pushing as far as I could go with my voice. The only way you can really graduate how you do it is by doing it regularly to people who don't have to be super impressed. You can do it in the studio all day long but you don't get the flashback that you get onstage.
Robert Plant
I'm so aware of the fact that if I hadn't taken the chances that I've taken along the line, I probably wouldn't be getting the best out of my voice anymore, I might have messed it up in that awful, predictable place.
Robert Plant
Boredom is a horrible thing.
Robert Plant
Everybody's got something to tell you. And most people have told me to do the obvious thing as far as my career goes. Which would have sent me tottering into the abyss.
Robert Plant
The essence of my lyrics is the desire for peace and harmony. That's all anyone has ever wanted. How could it become outdated?...We are trying to communicate a fulfilled ideal...I am a reflection of what I sing. Sometimes I have to get serious because the things I've been through are serious...The way I see it, rock n' roll is folk music.
Robert Plant
Soon, I'm going to need help crossing the street.
Robert Plant
Whenever I have bid a hasty goodbye to a loved one, I've always made sure that my record collection was safely stored away in the boot of the car.
Robert Plant
I like to comprehend more or less everything around me - apart from the creation of my music. It's an obsessive character trait that's getting worse. I don't switch the light on and off 15 times before I leave the room yet, but something's going wrong.
Robert Plant
Page and I get offered everything: women, little boys, cocaine, the lot, to just go back and do that again. I don't think it would be a good idea at all. [But] I reserve judgment to change my mind in five years' time.
Robert Plant
