"Joe Strummer, God bless him, he's gone and he shall be missed. But how dare he preach class war with an organisation like that . Living in a huge house in Holland Park. Every photo opportunity to be seen on a bus in his leather jacket, and then he went back to a palace. You're not getting it quite right there! That's where his image mattered more to him than the reality. He was trying to con us. In a nice way and for the right reasons but once you start lying it carries on and on and on."

“The class system is there to remind you that you’re just a dirty oik because you came from that side of the tracks.”

“Ever get the feeling you've been cheated? Good night!”

“I’ve not done any of this for superstardom, quite the opposite. I threw away the rock star mantle. And for that, there’s resentment too: ‘How dare he, how dare he.’”

“How can you ban language, words? How're words offensive? And why should I have to tolerate YOUR interpretation? I'm the one using the word. ASK me how I'm using it, don't TELL me. And if you don't like the way I'm using it, so what? It's my right. It's my freedom of expression. Without that, we're nothing but slaves. My language, now fuck off!!!”

“It’s a family house.”

“Yes I can take on England, but I couldn't take on one heroin addict.”
