To me, punk is about being an individual and going against the grain and standing up and saying 'This is who I am'.

I always said punk was an attitude. It was never about having a Mohican haircut or wearing a ripped T-shirt. It was all about destruction, and the creative potential within that.

Punk has always been about doing things your own way. What it represents for me is ultimate freedom and a sense of individuality.

What was punk all about? To me, it was if you really want to do something, go ahead and do it.

Part of the punk attitude was that you should project your music through your whole body... show your personality as much as possible.

It's very cliched to go, 'You're not punk.' We don't care if we are, and we don't care if we aren't.

I was a punk. I think that's why I'm such a good person now, because I was such a bad guy then.

All punk is is attitude. That's what makes it. The attitude.

Punk was defined by an attitude rather than a musical style.
