Look, Salvador Dali did not paint because he needed the money. No conversation about materialism and music makes sense. You make music and that's that, it doesn't matter why.

More quotes by 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 How could it become outdated?...We are trying to communicate a fulfilled ideal...I am a reflection of what I sing.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
I think that passion and love and pain are all bearable, and they go to make love beautiful.
Robert Plant
Now I'm a blithering oaf hanging on to the coatsleeves of commerciality.
Robert Plant
I hate cliché. And when you're a rock singer in 1966, or whatever it was, psychedelic blues, through to the '70s, which we know all about, and the '80s, which was a scramble to hang on in, and the '90s, which was a great time for experimentation... and I'm really still excited. The huge vast diagonals within the music that I've been involved with.
Robert Plant
I'm British - ostensibly British - but I don't know where I really belong, you know?
Robert Plant
I owe everything to the musicians I work with.
Robert Plant
Who wants to see 3 aging old racists on stage, anyway?
Robert Plant
There's so much of this beautiful planet that is still actually spectacular and stimulating. There are so many amazing people that you meet along the way.
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
Lately, I'm spending more and more time working with non-rock musicians and leaving the mainstream - almost dissolving into another world, musically.
Robert Plant
I want to play tennis and fornicate.
Robert Plant
I'm too old for Led Zeppelin.
Robert Plant
I'm not trying to be cosmic, it's just that everything's on a roll and that's how it is. The songs within the album discuss that very condition.
Robert Plant
The past is a stepping stone, not a millstone.
Robert Plant
People say that I'm a millionaire, but that's not true - I only spend millions.
Robert Plant
The trouble is now, with rock'n'roll and stuff, it gets so big that it loses what once upon a time was a magnificent thing, where it was special and quite elusive and occasionally a little sinister and it had its own world nobody could get in.
Robert Plant
It's part of me to get off on those moments where... well, what people would call attention. Obviously, that isn't the be-all and end-all of life, but at the states of creativity that I've reached, well, it helps the lyrics along a little bit.
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
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.
