Keith Richards's quotes

• [on news that The Rolling Stones had earned £1.23 billion since 1989] You don't start to play your guitar thinking you're going to be running an organisation that will maybe generate millions.
• [joking about the length of the Rolling Stones' career] You have the sun, you have the moon, you have the air that you breathe - and you have the Rolling Stones!
• [to then-girlfriend Anita Pallenberg just before being arrested for possession of heroin and cocaine in Toronto 1977] See you in seven years.
• Cold turkey is not so bad after you've done it ten or twelve times.
• If you're going to kick authority in the teeth, you might as well use both feet.
• Gram Parsons could get better coke than the mafia.
• The truth is, I'm more interested in the roll than I am in the rock.
• I never thought I was wasted, but I probably was.
• I'm a Sagittarius, half-man, half-horse with a license to shit in the street.
• If you say I'm great, thank you very much. But I know what I am. I could be better, man, you know?
• The Beatles, those chicks wore those guys out. They stopped touring in 1966 - they were done already. They were ready to go to India and shit.
• [on Sergeant Pepper] The Beatles sounded great when they were The Beatles. But there's not a lot of roots in that music. I think they got carried away.
• [on Anita Pallenberg] Stupid bitch... I'll always love her.
• I would try to keep a few people alive who don't really have a chance. Love thy neighbor! I can't get any more Christian. Brotherly love is not such a bad thing, actually. And it would be nice to be able to live without fear.
• [on Mick Jagger's solo album "Goddess in the Doorway"] Dog shit in the Doorway.
• Puff Daddy is a piece of crap.
• How would you like a smack in the fuckin' mouth? You wanna learn to keep your *fucking* mouth shut or someone might put their fist in it.
• At the end of the Seventies, with the emergence of the punks, we were denigrated as boring old farts. But it was a good kick in the butt.
• [on the Spice Girls] Well, quite a fascinating phenomenon. They're really just a lot of tarts! Can they sing? No! Can they play? No! The world's gone mad, it needs something like them. But they won't stay very long.
• I'd hate to have to go around thinking of health & shit like that.
• [on punk rock] What's the point of listening to that shit? It's for mass-media consumption anyway.
• Nothing's ever perfect.
• I would tell the genie: Do something for the others. Help the Africans, help those who hate each other. Help them to overcome this hatred! I don't need anything. I got enough! Go and use my wish for the others.
• I cry quite often.
• I never had a problem with drugs, only with cops.
• Nobody's got the right to judge over what I am putting into my body, apart from myself.
• [on the death of Kurt Cobain] The kid couldn't cope.
• There's only one fatal disease, I've concluded. It's called hypchondria. And it is deadly.
• [Danny Markus: This is the last indoor gig and I hope it's going to be really good.] Tell that to the members of the band who are awake.
• Charlie Watts is my absolute favourite. He has all of the qualities that I like in people. Great sense of humor, a lovely streak of eccentricity, a real talent, very modest.
• [a journalist tries to persuade Keith to give him an interview by saying he is the best journalist on the Northern Hemisphere] So what, I'm the best musician on the Northern Hemisphere.
• This morning, when I was listening to Vivaldi's "Four Seasons", tears came to my eyes.
• Nobody starts off to play an instrument with the idea off making money. You learn the guitar because you have this burning desire.
• [on Elton John] The man seems to like singing songs about dead blondes.
• [on hearing Elton John wants to throw a party for them] Only if he gives us a Rembrandt each.
• I'm very proud of the fact that I didn't go and kiss the Maharishi's damn feet, you know?
