Rock Quotes

I have the same friends I’ve had for years and the same family. Unless you love rock n’ roll and Hollywood parties and having your photo taken, I don’t think necessarily things need to change too much Picture Quote #1

The Catholic Church is an innately conservative rock - they call themselves the ‘rock of Peter’ - and its resistance to change is, ironically, what has kept it constant throughout the ages Picture Quote #1

It’s different, it’s weird to say, ‘She’s a white rapper or she can’t do this because she’s this color - this color does this thing. These are the boxes we have, this is what it is, don’t try to change it.’ And it’s crazy to me because I’m just not from that world, so I can’t really rock with it all the way Picture Quote #1

A woman’s love, like lichens upon a rock, will still grow where even charity can find no soil to nurture itself Picture Quote #1

I’d really like having a couple days of being a rock star, although I’d rather be a backup - like maybe the drummer for Muse It would also be fun to be gorgeous, like be Charlize Theron, just for a couple of days Picture Quote #1

Once the subject matter of rock n’ roll changed from cars and pop love songs to songs about really true love and the blues and death and mortality, this light bulb went off in my head and I went, ‘Oh, that’s what they’re doing. That’s kind of - that’s art.’ Picture Quote #1

What are the symbols of American strength, wealth, power and modernity? Certainly not jazz and rock and roll, not chewing-gum or hamburgers, Broadway or Hollywood. It’s their skyscrapers. Their Pentagon. Their science. Their technology Picture Quote #1

Real ability is the child of God-given talent and rock solid diligence. Nobody maintains ability without hard work. Nobody Picture Quote #1

I was the illegitimate child of the legitimate theater. I had no training. I came from downtown rock and roll, and when I came in and auditioned for the Broadway revival of ‘Hair,’ I had no eyebrows - kind of a Bowie-esque glimmer kid. And it was hard representing the flower power era when we were stone cold punks Picture Quote #1

I always wanted to be a rock star. That was my childhood dream. That’s what I told everybody I was going to be when I grew up Picture Quote #1

For me, my awkward phase corresponded to an interest in rock n’ roll. From experience, I’m guessing an insecure childhood is probably quite a common thing among people who start a rock band Picture Quote #1

No, there’s something about the sing-song cadence of children’s music that has its place in rock Picture Quote #1

It’s a weird thing to have a Hall of Fame for rock. It’s weird that I spent years worshiping the Cure, and here’s the Chili Peppers, and then one gets in one doesn’t. It’s ridiculous. In my heart of hearts, it means nothing to me, but I do understand it means a lot to other people. It creates positivity Picture Quote #1

People want to talk about whether I have rock cred, whether I’m selling out, the theatricality, the gay stuff... Chill out! And just enjoy yourself Picture Quote #1

Here’s a secret: fictive text doesn’t necessarily flow easily. Most of the time it’s more like cutting a highway through a mountain. You just have to keep working with your pick, chipping away at the rock, making slow progress Picture Quote #1

I’m all over the place with muffins. Carrots are great. Banana, chocolate chip, they rock, too Picture Quote #1

Chris Rock does the political thing really well, but that never worked for me Picture Quote #1

I like Louis C.K., Chris Rock. Old schools like Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy Picture Quote #1

We did that with people like Chris Rock, Woody Harrelson, and the environmentalist Julia Butterfly Hill Picture Quote #1

Chris Rock went from a guy whose name you knew from SNL to a legendary comedian by working his ass off Picture Quote #1

The most offensive thing that ever occurred in ‘The New Yorker’ would be, like, the mildest thing at a Chris Rock concert Picture Quote #1

People like to compare something to something that they know. Even with Chris Rock, they say he’s like Richard Pryor or Eddie Murphy Picture Quote #1

Frank Sebastiano is a real write. He has two Emmys, one from ‘SNL’ and the other from ‘The Chris Rock Show’ . The only award I have is an FM-mmy Picture Quote #1

As far as stand-ups go, I always loved Richard Pryor, Chris Rock, and Sinbad. Basically, I love black comedians because they’re the funniest. I wish I were a black comedian, actually Picture Quote #1

I thought, why don’t we be innovative and create something nobody had ever done before? It was a huge hit and we immediately did a sequel with Chris Rock, Morgan Freeman, Tina Turner and Maya Angelou Picture Quote #1

When you get off stage, the audience should know a little bit about you. Not where you are from, but how you see the world. And that’s the difference between like a Chris Rock joke, and like an open-miker Picture Quote #1

I learned from the guys before me - Bill Cosby, Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock, Richard Pryor, just to name a few. These are guys that let it all hang out. What they lived is what they took to the stage Picture Quote #1

I liked Jimmy Snuka, Tony Garea, Larry Zbyszko, Bob Backlund, Bruno Sammartino, Chief Strongbow, SD Jones (even though they never let him win), Captain Lou, Ted DiBiase...Uh...I’m forgetting some people...Greg Valentine. Chris Rock and Ric Flair are the best. Ric Flair is the king Picture Quote #1

W. Kamau Bell is in the vanguard of a new era of American comedy for an unsettling, troubling, and strangely hopeful time. Firmly in the fearless tradition of Mort Sahl, Lenny Bruce, Richard Pryor, and Chris Rock. Comedy as common sense purged of the absurd hypocrisy that is Our America Picture Quote #1

I was scared to death because for the comics of my generation, HBO specials are like the pinnacle. I’m thinking of all these unbelievable comedians I’ve seen on HBO: Chris Rock, George Carlin, Damon Wayans, Richard Pryor and Billy Crystal. I started having a panic attack seeing my name in that list of people. It was pretty overwhelming Picture Quote #1
