Frank Zappa
Whatever you have to do to have a good time, let's get on with it, so long as it doesn't cause a murder.
Frank Zappa
Music is the only religion that delivers the goods.
Frank Zappa
Wowie zowie, love me do. Wowie zowie, and I'll love you, too.
Frank Zappa
Music is always a commentary on society.
Frank Zappa
I think that if a person doesn't feel cynical then they're out of phase with the 20th century. Being cynical is the only way to deal with modern civilization - you can't just swallow it whole.
Frank Zappa
It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out the uglier everything seems.
Frank Zappa
Is this something new, having people stomp on you? Is it what I need to do for your pleasure?
Frank Zappa
She lives in Mojave in a Winnebago. His name is Bobby, he looks like a potato.
