John Lydon – “things that matter”

Sometimes inspiration and wisdom can come from the most unexpected sources, in this case from the man formerly and most famously known as Johnny Rotten:

“I’m aware of my songs. I’m aware of them because they’re about true emotions, true feelings, things that matter. And you don’t ever forget grief or joy, do you? They’re the constant companions of a human being. If you can coin them accurately enough, they will always be there.”

- John Lydon from A.V. Club interview, April 6, 2010

Beautifully expressed, and so very true.
