It is OK to be happy in life. Even through all the strife, maybe especially during times of great pain and suffering. We still have to be able to stay close to that joy because we can't save the world in a bad mood.

More quotes by Andrew W.K.
Everyone knows that in the early stages of a relationship, some alcohol can help lead to lowering inhibitions, calming some nerves and encouraging fearlessness. And sometimes that helps you meet someone or get with a partner you normally wouldn't have, so it can be good in that sense.

I always liked major-key music quite a bit, and that might have something to do with so many of the musical experiences of my childhood being based around the piano. On piano, it is very easy to move between major and minor and to really see how it looks and to feel how it sounds.
Andrew W.K.
We can only learn so much about our minds, because we are using our minds to do so.

I have listened to college radio quite a lot. I never went to college, so actually the college radio station is sort of like the closest I got to some kind of college experience.

They teach real young kids and when I was about five my Mom took me to enroll in this thing and they said I could do it. It was definitely my choice, but I would have never thought of it. There's pictures of me playing piano when I'm real, real little, that kind of stuff.

At least once in their life, every man should feel what it's like to wear high heels.

It's usually better to focus on partying and let the other stuff take care of itself.

Anyone who says that money cannot buy happiness has clearly never spent their money on pizza.
Andrew W.K.
I feel very emotional and party.
Andrew W.K.
That I ever think for one minute that I should ever feel lonely is obscene and unreasonable.
Andrew W.K.
If no one else has ever told you this before, I will tell it to you one more time and hope you believe it and never forget it for the rest of your life: You deserve to be treated well.

I'm in relationship right now and one thing that I've loved about it is sharing the memories.
Andrew W.K.
That quote by this guy Friedrich Schiller, Keep true to the dreams of thy youth? That quote changed my life. It confirmed that every crazy thing I'd ever done at least was staying true to the dreams of my youth - and really, I mean very young dreams of just being able to have fun all the time.

I remember when I first moved to New York, people said, Wow, man! You're so great. You have all these hopes and dreams, but it's going to be sad when you realize how the world really works! But one of the things I love most about this city is that everyone who moves here is being unreasonable. There's a sense of solidarity about that.

Festivals are unique. They can be the best of times or the worst. You're not playing to the converted. But those are the best shows - to see if you can make new friends and entertain them.

My favorite thing about partying together is sharing the memories.

I think J.S. Bach's music stands among humankind's greatest accomplishments. For me, Bach's music is not only as good as music gets, but also as good as it gets, period -- as good as existence, reality, life and the world.

You shouldn't need an excuse or a way to ease out.
Andrew W.K.
When you're single, you go out and party and it's fun, but in a relationship, you experience things together. It's just sharing the memories and looking back on them together, remembering that it was an amazing time. And then thinking about it like it was just yesterday.
Andrew W.K.
In some ways, you do lose a bit of freedom but as you get older, you might realize that you've met someone pretty cool - maybe a soulmate - so you're getting released from the endless pursuit of going out and trying to meet new people. So now you get to put your energy into building something that's longer lasting and a bit more meaningful.
