PolkSalad "When you are growing up, there are two institutional places that affect you most powerfully—the church, which belongs to God, and the public library, which belongs to you. The public library is a great equalizer." ~ Keith Richards

stonedinaustralia will have to paraphrase from memory

telecaster I remember a radio interview with Keith in '80 or '81 where he was drinking Jack and was talking about how beautiful the Space Shuttle was (the first one just launched) and how much he admired and respected the teamwork that took place to launch it

That is all I remember for now

More later

Carry on

Saint Sway I love the one he said about one of his proudest moments of the 60s
"at least I never kissed the Maharishi's ass"

Cant Catch Me Didn't he say, "You should scratch your nose before you scratch your ass."

And, there was one where he said, more or less, "All you need to play the guitar is two hands, five fingers and an asshole." I just can't remember the specific body parts or the numbers he named, except the asshole part, which is pretty easy to remember.

gypsymofo60 Well naturally Keith's pearls of wisdom are legendary, but when asked about Kurt Cobain, his reply that "The guy would have made a lousy plumber", is secondary only to his brave, and immaculate riposte to Merry Ol' England in the Marylebone Magistrates Court in 1967 which has already been touched upon. But think on this dear friends, when our dear Woody was asked for a comment on the above mentioned superstar, he replied, "You can scratch yer arse, but.. there's no need to tear it to pieces".

rolling who On Elton John:
"At least I don't go around singing songs about dead blondes."

On Pete Townshend:
"Why do you always have to be so fucking serious?"

On his 60s/70s arrests:
(paraphrased)
"Touring prison cells, checking 'em out, that's what I was doing."

And during 'Rock 'n Roll Circus' interview, when dog barks in background, he says, "Not you, (dog's name). You were once in a circus, but not this one, so piss off!"

And finally....
(Jagger imitating Keef on SNL)
"If you don't have rules, you got friggin' anarchy"
