More quotes by 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
I think it's really tragic when people get serious about stuff. It's such an absurdity to take anything really seriously ... I make an honest attempt not to take anything seriously: I worked that attitude out about the time I was eighteen, I mean, what does it all mean when you get right down to it, what's the story here? Being alive is so weird.
Frank Zappa
Brown shoes don't make it.
Frank Zappa
Out on a 30 day tour, you got nothing, but groupies and promoters to love you.
Frank Zappa
I'm the devil's advocate. We have our own worshipers.
Frank Zappa
If we can't be free at least we can be cheap.
Frank Zappa
Guitar playing, as currently understood, has more to do with sports than it does to do with music. It's an Olympic challenge type of situation. The challenges are in the realm of speed, redundancy, choreography, and grooming... ...clouds of educated gnat-notes.
Frank Zappa
My guitar wants to kill your mama.
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
Her head is full of bubbles, her nose is petite, she looks like she never gets nothing to eat.
Frank Zappa
You is what you am, a cow don't make ham.
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.
Frank Zappa
Am I a boy or a lady, I don't know which?
Frank Zappa
Mr. Gorbachev has apparently stumbled onto one of the best-kept secrets in recent Soviet history: Communism doesn't work.
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
He wants to do you in cause the color of your skin.
Frank Zappa
Studied law, but not qualified to practice it.
Frank Zappa
Music is the only religion that delivers the goods.
Frank Zappa
Everybody believes in something and everybody, by virtue of the fact that they believe in something, uses that something to support their own existence.
Frank Zappa
When God created Republicans, he gave up on everything else.
Frank Zappa
