Keith Quotes


"I hate pretension. I understand its appeal to other people, but I try to avoid it at all costs. The overblown and the pretentious - you can kill me with that shit."

"You got it wrong, pal. There is no method."

"No regrets. No. Whatever. What goes down, goes down, and it's how you deal with it that counts."

"I can't tell you what's going to happen, because I'm not God. But I am a king." 

"If you're going to get wasted, then get wasted elegantly."

"I was making records before you were fucking born! It makes me feel stupid and you, right? What kind of organisation is it where you can just whip things out? The Rolling Stones - fast and quick and brilliant! But it doesn't work like that, son."

"Without even saying things, you have the feeling, the great sense of relief that something has been resolved." 

"To make a rock'n'roll record, technology is the least important thing."

"I enjoy working with other people very much and, given the time, I'd work with just about anybody, really. As long as I can get along with them and they've got some good stuff to do."

"I'm not the guys I see on MTV, who obviously think they are me."

"I'm still learning my lines, baby"
 

"You have to drag things out of your memory. Some of it you don’t even want to remember and others you’ve totally forgotten, so you end up trying to put your life together again."
 
"It’s a little bit like life, really. Some of it is a little bit painful and some of it you go, ‘Yeah, I forgot about that, or that was great’."

 
"Faxes are as far as I get, then you can do drawings - you can express yourself. It’s like getting a letter."
