Text Quotes
If you are a kid in Beverly Hills, (I am not putting down people who live in Beverly Hills) if that kid knows private school and a credit card... you can’t say the kid is taking life for granted. He is taking the life that was given to him  (Henry Rollins Quotes) I don’t want to play old music. To me, it is fighting battles that are already over and calling yourself a warrior. For me, I see no courage or adventure in doing the old thing over again. If others want to, that’s for them. For myself, I have to move on. Life is too short to live in the past. There is a lot to be done  (Henry Rollins Quotes) The month of November makes me feel that life is passing more quickly. In an effort to slow it down, I try to fill the hours more meaningfully  (Henry Rollins Quotes) Each year, every city in the world that can should have a multiday festival. More people meeting each other, digging new types of music, new foods, new ideas. You want to stop having so many wars? This could be a step in the right direction  (Henry Rollins Quotes) Everything I do, writing, touring, travelling, it all comes from the punk and hardcore attitude, from that expression - from being open to try things but relying on yourself, taking what you have into the battle and making of it what you will, hoping you can figure it out as you go. Make some sense of it  (Henry Rollins Quotes) I’d like to be a better writer, but I have no dreams to direct or do a screenplay. And I’d love to have a big starring role in a movie because the paycheck would be bigger. That’s the only reason I do films  (Henry Rollins Quotes) I do a lot of stuff for free anyway. Like a lot of people who you see who don’t need money. Mick Jagger - he needs money? He just likes to go sing Satisfaction every night. If I wrote that song I probably would do it too  (Henry Rollins Quotes) In fact, every place I’ve been to in Africa has a nice part, but you see the downside. Calcutta , parts of Central and South America , I’ve seen a lot of dead bodies and a lot of sad poverty and just obliteration  (Henry Rollins Quotes) I slept in Uday Hussein’s bed - that was just so strange. Went to Saddam’s palace, was in a mortar attack - crazy stuff. And like three days later you’re back in traffic on Sunset Boulevard. It’s all kind of behind you, which is kind of perfect for a guy like me because I can take that and turn it into quite the tale  (Henry Rollins Quotes) I think I am the most impressed with writing styles that defy category, like Kharms or Selby, Breton or Jarry, where you become as interested in the writer as much as the writing itself. It’s all these things that make reading so appealing to me  (Henry Rollins Quotes) Whenever I write lyrics, in the back of my mind I always see a guy driving to work, driving to a really bad job, one of those horrible institutions, or one of those low squat buildings in Los Angeles. I write with that person in my mind  (Henry Rollins Quotes) I think in rural settings, people have a different appreciation for animals than might the city dweller. In parts of India where poisonous snake bite is common, people have a much different value system. I live in a city. I’m not thinking about wolves, lions, etc  (Henry Rollins Quotes) The talking shows are like free jazz. I’m just gonna go out there and blow with the idea of keeping it streamlined and not wasting time. It’s wild. And it’s a great thing when you see a performer really able to  (Henry Rollins Quotes) Some soldier will say, ‘You know, sir, you and I have some political disagreements, but I’m glad you came all the way out here.’ And you know, you say, ‘Well, maybe one day you’ll see the light but I’m glad to be out here with you.’  (Henry Rollins Quotes) Pride is a thing that I have tried to abandon completely. Try as I might, pride still creeps into many of the things I do  (Henry Rollins Quotes) Think about it: No matter who you are, the past plays a large part in your life. I am all about living in the present as best as I can. Try as I might, there is only so much I am able to achieve on this front  (Henry Rollins Quotes) Michele Bachmann is always a great person to go to for an opinion about anything. She has a very active and interesting mind.  (Henry Rollins Quotes) While I disagree with our presence in Iraq and Afghanistan, I have nothing but respect and admiration for the men and women deployed in these places.  (Henry Rollins Quotes) Mr. Christ, I read you as an infinitely patient entity who, as they say, often works in mysterious ways, a rebel unafraid to take the tougher, less traveled paths. Seems to me you’re playing the long game. Is that why more states are coming out in favor of marriage equality? Is that why the Affordable Care Act is now with us?  (Henry Rollins Quotes) If American forces leave Afghanistan, the Taliban is going to do what to America? Don’t say you’re worried about what they will do to the Afghan people. If that was America’s concern, America’s operational presence there would be much different.  (Henry Rollins Quotes) The first several years of my life were used to upload incredible amounts of fear, and I just became afraid of everything. I was afraid of my parents, afraid of my classmates, afraid of the streets of Washington, D.C. I would flinch at every gesture.  (Henry Rollins Quotes) Marriage equality is a term so ridiculous on its face that when you hear it mentioned, you would think you were in Riyadh. Years from now, perhaps we can lose the equality part, the same-sex part and call it what it is - marriage.  (Henry Rollins Quotes) I’d love to talk to Janeane Garafalo or Randi Rhodes or Stephanie Miller from Air America. I’m an Air American junkie; I listen to them every day.  (Henry Rollins Quotes) When I read that Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 had disappeared - a state-of-the-art Boeing 777, said to be an incredibly safe way to travel - I waited patiently for the chance to learn what happened.  (Henry Rollins Quotes) Giving a good performance, giving it all is what it’s all about. I love to perform.  (Henry Rollins Quotes) I’m a big fan of the American Tapes label. But that’s very hard to keep a grip on that because you blink your eyes and they’ve released three records, all of which are limited edition, all sold at one show. So you have to follow in drips and drops on eBay, which I do.  (Henry Rollins Quotes) An appreciation of animals is good for a human, it can lead to a better understanding and respect for all living things.  (Henry Rollins Quotes) Music to me is mankind’s greatest possible achievement because look at all the good it does  (Henry Rollins Quotes) One of the odd enjoyments in life is to be alone in a room full of people. To have them there as unknowing human filler in your wide shot.  (Henry Rollins Quotes) Being in New York is an almost overwhelming experience. While Washington, D.C., is my favorite American city, I regard New York City as the most amazing city in the world. No other comes close. It is an incredible, inexhaustible engine.  (Henry Rollins Quotes)
