Nothing changes and very little happens in Paris. This is a great place to work without distraction - and then I run away to New York, where I have a life!

I've always thought that gaming and YouTube and the web is a very post-punk extravaganza.

Punk's influence on music, movies, art, design and fashion is no longer in doubt. It is used as the measurement for what is cool.

I never intended for the Sex Pistols to be immeasurably successful.

Sid Vicious began the age of participation in which everyone could be the artist. Sid proved that you don't have to play well to be the star. You can play badly, or not even at all. I endorsed that attitude. If you can't write songs, no problem - simply steal one and change it to your taste.

Be childish. Be irresponsible. Be disrespectful. Be everything this society hates.
