The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Iggy Pop
- What did Christ really do? He hung out with hard-drinking fishermen.
- ‘Punk rock’ is a word used by dilettantes and heartless manipulators about music that takes up the energies, the bodies, the hearts, the souls, the time and the minds of young men who give everything they have to it.
- I have a hot memory, but I know I’ve forgotten many things, too, just squashed things in favor of survival.

- I have no idea why a guy would bring a jar of peanut butter to a concert.
- The more walking-around money I have, the less I walk around.
- I stare at myself in the mirror and I think, ‘Wow, I’m really great-looking.’… I think I’m the greatest, anyway.
- 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.
- If I don’t terrorize, I’m not Pop.
- Miami is nothing like me, and that’s why I need to be here – it’s the opposite. I’m practical, where this place is moody, I’m stolid in my interior, where this place has a certain flair, and I’m materialistic in a sense that this place is fundamentally spiritual – there’s a quicksilver quality about this place.
