Frank Zappa
There is more stupidity than hydrogen in the universe, and it has a longer shelf life.
Frank Zappa
You know, people are basically shitty
Frank Zappa
To me absurdity is the only reality
Frank Zappa

Frank Zappa
Anything Anytime Anyplace For No Reason At All (or AAAFNRAA)
Frank Zappa
The people of your century no longer require the service of composers. A composer is as useful to a person in a jogging suit as a dinsoaur turd in the middle of his runway.
Frank Zappa
The devil, he's about this big. He had a red suit on and a widow's peak, and then a pointed tail, and like a sulfur reek. Yes, it was him alright, I swear.
