My parents wanted to light my artistic candle. But over time, the definition of ‘the arts’ began to stretch. And as I got older, they suddenly realized, Oh, my God, we’re the parents of Iggy Pop Picture Quote #1

Sex may be a little more factual than love. You know whether it’s good or bad. You know whether you liked it or not. You’re not going to change your mind about it ten years later Picture Quote #1

Studios are like hospitals. A lot of people check in, and they don’t check out Picture Quote #1

I kinda feel like everything comes full circle in life, even though that’s a cliche Picture Quote #1

Something I like to do a lot is just sit by water when there’s a current and just stare into the water. I don’t fish, I don’t hunt, I don’t scuba, I don’t spear, don’t boat, don’t play basketball or football - I excel at staring into space. I’m really good at that Picture Quote #1

Look, you’re here to see me, and I can’t go on until my dealer is here, and he’s waiting to be paid, so give me some money so I can fix up, and then you’ll get your show Picture Quote #1

Stages are getting higher and higher, and I’m getting older and older Picture Quote #1

I like music that’s more offensive. I like it to sound like nails on a blackboard, get me wild Picture Quote #1

If you give a good performance, something that gets some feeling across to people, that’s such a rare gift. It’s underestimated at this point in history, when the music biz is inevitably turning into a kind of politics Picture Quote #1

When the ‘godfather of punk’ thing started floatin’ around, it was, I was really, really embarrassed. I thought I should have a great, big rig and a cape and everything, and it was very embarrassing. And then after a while, you learn that if people call you anything, this is a great gift Picture Quote #1
