More quotes by Frank Zappa
I have been monitoring your earthly broadcasts for many years.
Frank Zappa
Science is moving closer to weaponry, and Art is moving closer to commercialism. And never the twain shall meet.
Frank Zappa
As far as rearing children goes, the basic idea I try to keep in mind is that a child is a person. Just because they happen to be a little shorter than you doesn't mean they are dumber than you.
Frank Zappa
All the good music has already been written by people with wigs and stuff.
Frank Zappa
One of my favorite philosophical tenets is that people will agree with you only if they already agree with you. You do not change people's minds.
Frank Zappa
If you want to get laid, go to college. If you want an education, go to the library.
Frank Zappa
Maybe you should stay with your mama, you're kind of stupid and ugly, too.
Frank Zappa
Everything on this planet has something to do with music. Music functions in the realm of sculptured air.
Frank Zappa
Bad facts make bad law, and people who write bad laws are in my opinion more dangerous than songwriters who celebrate sexuality. Freedom of speech, freedom of religious thought, and the right to due process for composers, performers and retailers are imperiled if the PMRC and the major labels consummate this nasty bargain.
Frank Zappa
Reality is what it is, not what you want it to be.
Frank Zappa
If we cannot be free, we can at least be cheap
Frank Zappa
Nobody looks good with brown lipstick on.
Frank Zappa
My English teacher, he's like, he's like Mr. Bu-fu.
Frank Zappa
Without music to decorate it, time is just a bunch of boring production deadlines or dates by which bills must be paid.
Frank Zappa
People are just waiting around to get certified.
Frank Zappa
The computer can't tell you the emotional story. It can give you the exact mathematical design, but what's missing is the eyebrows.
Frank Zappa
I'm more interested in melodic things. I think the biggest challenge when you go to play a solo is trying to invent a melody on the spot.
Frank Zappa
Mr. Gorbachev has apparently stumbled onto one of the best-kept secrets in recent Soviet history: Communism doesn't work.
Frank Zappa
He took a dog-doo snow cone and stuffed it in my right eye. He took a dog-doo snow cone and stuffed it in my other eye.
Frank Zappa
I think the music of the Fifties is really good. I suspect it's much better musically than much of what's available now. Not in terms of production, but in terms of content.
