"Honestly, who cares about the Stones today? These people leave their living rooms once in a while, go to football stadiums, play a bit of rock'n'roll and go home to put on their slippers with a little more money in their bank account." (1999)

"I'm a fucking broken heart." (1997)

"Socialist England is looking more and more like the States. I'd like to see Buckingham Palace turned into a homeless shelter, and the royal family into a council flat."
✨๐ป๐๐๐ 1997
"I read Marylin Manson's autobiography, The Long Hard Road Out Of Hell, and it really made me want to go out and do as many drugs as possible and fuck as much as possible. It didn't go as far as it did for Manson, though, when he was throwing bits of cold meat at disabled people and pissing on them. There's a line you can't cross, and that line, for me, is cold meat..." (2000)

"The ability of this business to ingest people, bribe them and then spit them out is impressive." (2004)

"I'd like to be in a girl band. We could pass around make-up turks, and talk about things that don't revolve around p*ssy all the time (...) If I were a girl, I'd be a bomb, I'd use my sexual power to destroy men. I would be a man-eater! (1999)

"When I meet them, I get the impression that half of British rock journalists never get laid. That's why they reacted so strangely to my songs." (1998)

"If I had to play Russian roulette with five people? I'll take Eminem to start with. Fred Durst to start... Britney Spears will be invited too, and Marilyn Manson, just because he's nuts enough to like it. Last one? Tony Blair." (2000)

"Our sexual proclivities haven't changed, and we still wear make-up. It's just more expensive and better applied." (2003)

"Of course I'm perfectly aware of how much money I make, but I would never reveal any details, it would be far too vulgar." (2004)

"I wanted to be taller, I wanted to be sexier, I wanted to have fewer pimples. I can be all that. When I'm on stage, I'm all that." (1997)

"After a year of touring, we'll have disgusting skin from eating too many sandwiches and drinking too much alcohol, we'll be foaming like cancer patients and probably not have a single friend anywhere! (1997)

"As an American, I've always lived in Europe, and I feel like a stranger there. This country gets on my nerves. It's supposed to be the land of the free, and you can't smoke anywhere. Placebo may never work there because they're too smart for them. (2000)
✨๐ฎ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
"Groupies? I've never heard of that. Ha! Ha! Ha! Normally we pick the best looking people in the audience, cram them into a backstage room, keep pouring them alcohol and wait to see what happens." (2000)

"I'm quite happy with all my neuroses. They keep me awake, on the move. If I had to get rid of them all, I could become Sting. My God! I can't imagine anything worse on this planet." (2003)
✨๐ญ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐
"Over there, the groupies are real 'psychos', they are very young, very 'bad'. They all lie about their age. And they are very determined, like: 'How dare you come to my country without fucking me? (1998)

"The world doesn't need another rock'n'roll victim. Cobain, Jim Hendrix, Janis Joplin... We don't need any more victims like them. I don't want that to happen. It doesn't mean I'm stronger than they were, but it's that I have this image of myself with Stef and Steve at sixty. Not playing, but sitting quietly and saying, 'Do you remember?'

๐ Don't you think the last sentence is touching ? ๐
What's your favorite amongst these ?
Imagining Stefan and Brian remembering the old times makes me want to listen to ๐บ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ต๐๐๐ ๐... 'Remember me through flash photography and screams / Remember me, special dreams' ๐ถ
