Keith Richards

I’ve got nothing against daylight. I don’t live totally nocturnally. Only when I feel like it. Which is most of the time.
KEITH RICHARDS

Day Feeling Light Time
I am not doing it just for the money or for you. I am doing it for me.

Music works in mysterious ways. Once it goes in you have no idea what it can do to you.

If you don’t know the blues there’s no point in picking up the guitar and playing rock and roll or any other form of popular music.

I never plan anything, which is probably the difference between Mick and myself. Mick needs to know what he’s gonna do tomorrow and I’m just happy to wake up to see who’s hanging around. Mick’s rock and I’m roll.

I never sleep alone. If there is no one to sleep next to, I’ll sleep next to a stuffed animal. It makes me feel secure and safe. It’s a little embarrassing to admit it; I’m an old man now. It’s important to me though.

One of the great things about songwrighting; it’s not an intellectual experience.

To me, my biggest fear is getting a big head, and that is when I get the hammer. Because it’s very easy in this game to believe you’re something special.

And then I think we realized, like any young guys, that blues are not learned in a monastery. You’ve got to go out there and get your heart broke and then come back and then you can sing the blues.

If you stay up, you get the songs that everyone else misses because they’re asleep.

I’m free of hypochondria– although I’ve got everything else.

The only things Mick and I disagree about is the band, the music and what we do.
