More quotes by Frank Zappa
If we can't be free at least we can be cheap.
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
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
It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out the uglier everything seems.
Frank Zappa
The creation and destruction of harmonic and 'statistical' tensions is essential to the maintenance of compositional drama. Any composition (or improvisation) which remains consonant and 'regular' throughout is, for me, equivalent to watching a movie with only 'good guys' in it, or eating cottage cheese.
Frank Zappa
You is what you am, a cow don't make ham.
Frank Zappa
I think love lyrics have contributed to the general aura of bad mental health in America.
Frank Zappa
Censoring what you say is one of the ways in which people who are not nice can take away your personal freedom.
Frank Zappa
I'm probably more famous for sitting on the toilet than for anything else that I do.
Frank Zappa
Rock music was never written for or performed for conservative tastes.
Frank Zappa
Drugs will turn you into your parents.
Frank Zappa
Our criminal institutions are full of creeps like you who do wrong things, and many of them were driven to these crimes by the horrible force called music.
Frank Zappa
The price of meat has just gone up and your old lady has just gone down.
Frank Zappa
If lyrics make people do things, how come we don't love each other?
Frank Zappa
There is no such thing as a dirty word. Nor is there a word so powerful, that it's going to send the listener to the lake of fire upon hearing it.
Frank Zappa
Wowie zowie, love me do. Wowie zowie, and I'll love you, too.
Frank Zappa
I ain't the type for begging, I am not the type to plead. If she don't change those evil ways, I'm gonna make her bleed.
Frank Zappa
Hendrix is one of the most revolutionary figures in today's pop culture, musically and sociologically.
Frank Zappa
The whole foundation of Christianity is based on the idea that intellectualism is the work of the Devil. Remember the apple on the tree? Okay, it was the Tree of Knowledge. You eat this apple, you're going to be as smart as God. We can't have that.
Frank Zappa
This here song might offend some, if it does it's because your dumb.
Frank Zappa
