Rock n' roll is the most disgusting form of expression, it's brutal, malefic, a pestilential aphrodisiac, the preferred music of the delinquents of the earth.

The purpose of rock n’ roll is to convince girls to pay money to get close to you.
RICHARD HELL

Rock n' roll is over, don't you get it? It lasted 25 years and now gets wiped out. The Sex Pistols were the bullet in the brain. They were the last rock and roll band.
JOHNNY LYDON, SEX PISTOLS

JOHNNY LYDON, SEX PISTOLS

I always thought that if I got to 30 doing these things that I'd be ashamed.
ROBERT SMITH, THE CURE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I've hit 33 I'll stop. That's the age when one should do something else. I don't want to be a rock-star for all of my life. I couldn't take winding up like Elvis doing Las Vegas with the housewives and old ladies showing up with their shopping bags.
MICK JAGGER, ROLLING STONES - 1972

I would've liked that in the good old days they had electric guitars in the cotton fields.
A lot of things would've changed.
JIMI HENDRIX

The 2 things I like the most are girls and loud noises.
IGGY POP

We never would've gotten laid if we hadn't formed the Ramones
JOHNNY RAMONE, THE RAMONES
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In 1965 we sat at a table in a hotel tallied the numbers. From when the band existed, 2 years before, I had 278 girls, Brian 130, Mick 30, Keith 6 and Charlie none.
BILL WYMAN, ROLLING STONES

When I was in Japan, I was staying in a monastery. I had a portable CD player and some discs. The monks were curious. I put on Jimi Hendrix. One monk made a strange face and the he said:"I've already heard this 2000 years ago in China.
