More quotes by Robert Plant
Boredom is the beginning of all destruction and everything that is negative.
Robert Plant
Well, I suppose I could do a solo album, but my god, it would be terrible!
Robert Plant
People say that I'm a millionaire, but that's not true - I only spend millions.
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
I'm not a flowerchild or anything like that... whatever it was.

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 How could it become outdated?...We are trying to communicate a fulfilled ideal...I am a reflection of what I sing.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

Robert Plant
Who wants to see 3 aging old racists on stage, anyway?
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
Boredom is a horrible thing.
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
I can't regret until the end. And I won't regret then, either.
Robert Plant
What I want to do, I do! I'm pretty fortunate.
Robert Plant
I was young - I was 20 years old. Now I have the gift of perspective and I feel pretty good about it.
