No matter what we say, entertainers are usually quite insecure, wobbly characters underneath, and maybe that bit of glory or that bit of expression or whatever it is compensates in some area.

More quotes by Robert Plant
I have no story. My story goes from day to day.
Robert Plant
I kind of disguise my limitations by hanging out with very talented people. The excitement of the collision between the microphone-twirling guy from 1966 to now is just a fantastic adventure. There aren't many of us left and I've managed to kind of cover my tracks pretty good.
Robert Plant
What I want to do, I do! I'm pretty fortunate.
Robert Plant
Some audiences can shake and bang their heads on the stage to riffs all night long, but subtlety is an art that must be mastered if you're going to be remembered.
Robert Plant
I think Led Zeppelin must have worn some of the most peculiar clothing that men had ever been seen to wear without cracking a smile.
Robert Plant
Every place is determined by the characters who are there.
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
It's funny, you know - time does travel pretty quickly, and I do have good friends, and the further away I go from them in location, it matters that I keep on the same line and the same groove that I had and preserve that groove with people who I see seldom.
Robert Plant
You would find in a lot of Zep stuff that the riff was the juggernaut that careered through and I worked the lyrics around this.
Robert Plant
I like the idea of being alone. I like the idea of often being alone in all aspects of my life. I like to feel lonely. I like to need things.
Robert Plant
I think that passion and love and pain are all bearable, and they go to make love beautiful.
Robert Plant
I'm tipping the hat and looking back.
Robert Plant
It's OK to quote from your past. But I'm more interested in quoting from my present and pointing towards the future.
Robert Plant
There are always generic terms like 'Americana', but there are no boundaries as to where it can go.
Robert Plant
As we wind on down the road, our shadows taller than our souls.
Robert Plant
Now I'm a blithering oaf hanging on to the coatsleeves of commerciality.
Robert Plant
People run away, pull their hair, go off in different directions, nodding their heads and going, Oh, God. I am slightly disheveled, I think. I'm really pleased that I am, because otherwise I could be in a really, really dull and boring place now, as a musician, at least.
Robert Plant
The idea of actually taking sharp turns left and right has always intrigued me, but I've never really been bold enough to do that. As musicians go, I've allowed myself to be carried by other people's enthusiasm into places where I've learned a lot. There is no real tumult anymore. What I want to do, I do! I'm pretty fortunate.
Robert Plant
I'm not a flowerchild or anything like that... whatever it was.
Robert Plant
I'm not saving lives. I'm singing and I should go placidly and joyously through the whole thing and work hard and not take it for granted. It's great to have this gift.
