Keith Moon

I'm not a bore. I'm a blast.

I'm not a square. I'm a circle.

I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell.

I don't care if I die, as long as I'm famous.

I don't take life seriously. It's too short for that.

I live my life in a free and spontaneous way. I don't care about consequences.

Life is too short to worry about what others think. Have fun, enjoy the ride.

Rock 'n' roll is a way of life. It's all or nothing.

If you want to be remembered, you have to do something outrageous.

I don't follow rules. I make my own rules and break them.

At heart I cannot accept that I am a well-known rock 'n' roll star and one of the greatest drummers in the world. I can't believe that person on the television is really me.

I love to see people laugh and I love it more if I can make them laugh.

I've always enjoyed myself. Unhappy periods for me last about twenty minutes.

I told people I was a drummer before I even had a set, I was a mental drummer.

You know, if I ever stopped laughing inside and quit believing in people then I would get very hurt and totally disillusioned.

The hotel smashing is one way I get relief from the public image.

They're always saying I'm a capitalistic pig. I suppose I am. But... it's good for my drumming.

I tried several things and this was the only one I enjoyed doing.

I don't think the drums are a solo instrument. Drums are there to set the beat for the music.

I was a rust repairer. I was a rust repairer and full-time survivor. I survived all the major earthquakes, and the Titanic, and several air crash.
