More quotes by Frank Zappa
If you are home, and you got no place to go, and you want to, just blow yourself up ... Go ahead ... The drugs themselves ... There's a price for doing stuff to yourself.
Frank Zappa
Mr. Gorbachev has apparently stumbled onto one of the best-kept secrets in recent Soviet history: Communism doesn't work.

Just because somebody hears something you say, or reads something that you write, doesn't mean you've reached them. With reading comprehension being what it is in the U. S., you can safely toss that one out the window. If you want to judge by the listening habits of people who buy records, the first thing they do is put it on and talk over it.
Frank Zappa
If lyrics make people do things, how come we don't love each other?
Frank Zappa

I mean, if you want to hurt yourself, go ahead. It's like, if you want to jack off, go ahead, just don't 'spoo' on a public bus or something . Do whatever you want to do. Just don't get it in somebody else's face.
Frank Zappa

Frank Zappa
Most people don't bother about their friends in the vegetable kingdom.
Frank Zappa

Frank Zappa
So much gets lost in the translation. Even if you sat there listening to it with a microscope, there's no way you're gonna find out what it means.
Frank Zappa
Studied law, but not qualified to practice it.
Frank Zappa
I think it is good that books still exist, but they do make me sleepy.
Frank Zappa
Stupidity has a certain charm - ignorance does not.
Frank Zappa
Power will be maintained by the groovy guy or gal who gets the most media coverage for his sleaze. Naturally, his friends in various businesses will do okay, too.
Frank Zappa
The richest people in the world aren't particularly smart or happy. And the happiest people in the world aren't particularly smart or rich.… That leaves me making music. But we can't talk about that.
Frank Zappa
Is this something new, having people stomp on you? Is it what I need to do for your pleasure?
Frank Zappa
The typical rock fan is not smart enough to know when he is being dumped on.
Frank Zappa
. . . behind each breakaway movement is a breakaway demagogue who will set up his breakaway demagogue government.
