Lemmy

Like most housewives, I don't cook unless I have company.

I always thought we had more in common with punk than with anything else, but we had long hair, so we didn't fit in that box.

My father walked out on us when I was three months old, and my mum, well, she wasn't the driven sort.

I guess anything in excess is no good for you, even things that are supposed to be healthy.

I don't like people's table manners. That really puts you off eating food.

There's no point thinking about dying, because it's going to happen anyway, isn't it? I don't waste my time worrying about that.

In every kid's life, there's about three or four years when you're at liberty, and after that, you have to get a job because you're getting married or you have to support your parents or whatever it is. I was lucky: I didn't get married, so I didn't have to have that responsibility.

You can't plan your life. It doesn't work.

Everyone wants to be safe. Well, I got news for you: You can't be safe. Life's not safe. Your work isn't safe. When you leave the house, it isn't safe. The air you breathe isn't going to be safe, not for very long. That's why you have to enjoy the moment.

It's very much up to you, how you shape your life. I mean, I missed out on human relationships. But looking at relationships that I've seen along the way, I don't think I've missed much.

I don't want to advise anyone to do anything, apart from try and stay alive. That's my advice - don't die.

Human nature is to blame for everything, innit? We're just a disease on this planet.
