I expect people to at least use some thought.

What characterized the whole punk scene for me in 1977 was there was no racism or sexism. It was an anarchy of -isms, and a matter of abolishing it all.

Real success is not being on the cover of a magazine; it's knowing that you've done, and enjoyed doing, what you set out to do.

Whatever I'm already doing becomes enhanced when I smoke pot. It can also be demotivating, because if I'm not doing anything and I smoke a joint, it enhances just sitting in a chair. Then I don't even want to get up to change a record. That might not be a bad thing, but you have to get things done once in a while.

Being on tour sends me crazy, I drink too much and out comes the John Mcenroe in me.

How much did you get for your soul?

One person can make all the difference in the world. For the first time in recorded human history, we have the fate of the whole planet in our hands.
