Lou Reed's quotes
- You can't beat two guitars, bass, and drums.
- [on colleague John Cale] I only hope that one day John will be recognized as . . . the Beethoven or something of his day. He knows so much about music, he's such a great musician. He's completely mad--but that's because he's Welsh.
- People think that I work out but it's all t'ai chi.
- The music is all. People should die for it. People are dying for everything else, so why not the music?
- One chord is fine. Two chords are pushing it. Three chords and you're into jazz.
- I didn't get in it for the money, and I'm the same way now. I do it for me. Because I like doing it.
- It's been a long time since I spoke to any journalists. They are a species of foul vermin. I wouldn't hire people like you to guard my sewer. Journalists are morons. Idiots. I don't perform to idiots. Journalists are ignorant and stupid.
