Shut Up and Play your Guitar.
Frank Zappa
If your children ever find out how lame you really are, they'll murder you in your sleep.
Frank Zappa
Information is not knowledge. Knowledge is not wisdom. Wisdom is not truth. Truth is not beauty. Beauty is not love. Love is not music. Music is THE BEST.
Frank Zappa
I want a horny little Jewish princess.
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
As far as rearing children goes, the basic idea I try to keep in mind is that a child is a person. Just because they happen to be a little shorter than you doesn't mean they are dumber than you.
Frank Zappa
My best advice to anyone who wants to raise a happy, mentally healthy child is: Keep him or her as far away from a church as you can.
Frank Zappa
Without deviance from normality, there can be no progress.
Frank Zappa
The crux of the biscuit is: If it entertains you, fine. Enjoy it. If it doesn't, then blow it out your ass. I do it to amuse myself. If I like it, I release it. If somebody else likes it, that's a bonus.
Frank Zappa
I believe that people have a right to decide their own destinies people own themselves. I also believe that, in a democracy, government exists because (and only so long as) individual citizens give it a temporary license to exist, in exchange for a promise that it will behave itself. In a democracy, you own the government. It doesn't own you.
Frank Zappa
Ever try to have a conversation with someone on drugs? It just doesn't work.
Frank Zappa
If you want to get together in any exclusive situation and have people love you, fine - but to hang all this desperate sociology on the idea of The Cloud-Guy who has The Big Book, who knows if you've been bad or good - and CARES about any of it - to hang it all on that, folks, is the chimpanzee part of the brain working.
Frank Zappa
You are what you is, you is what you am, you ain't what you're not. So see what you got?
Frank Zappa
Books Are Good For Lots Of Uses, Not For Dropping In The Toilet.
Frank Zappa
Am I a boy or a lady, I don't know which?
Frank Zappa
I detest 'love lyrics.' I think one of the causes of bad mental health in the United States is that people have been raised on 'love lyrics.
Frank Zappa
You is what you am, a cow don't make ham.
Frank Zappa
Michael is Janet and Janet is Michael.
Frank Zappa
It would be easier to pay off the national debt overnight than to neutralise the long-range effects of our national stupidity
Frank Zappa
I would say that today, dishonesty is the rule, and honesty the exception. It could be, statistically, that more people are honest than dishonest, but the few that really control things are not honest, and that tips the balance.
Frank Zappa
