More quotes by 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
Most rock journalism is people who can't write, interviewing people who can't talk, for people who can't read.
Frank Zappa
All that we got here is American made. It's a little bit cheesy, but it's nicely displayed.
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
What something is depends more on when it is than anything else.
Frank Zappa
Nobody looks good with brown lipstick on.
Frank Zappa
The whole Universe is a large joke. Everything in the Universe are just subdivisions of this joke. So why take anything too serious.
Frank Zappa
There is more stupidity than hydrogen in the universe, and it has a longer shelf life.
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

Frank Zappa
You've got to be digging it while it's happening 'cause it just might be a one shot deal.
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
If your children ever find out how lame you really are, they'll murder you in your sleep.
Frank Zappa
Beware of the fish people, they are the true enemy.
Frank Zappa
A true Zen saying: Nothing is what I want.
Frank Zappa
My school spirit is at an all time low, I'm losing my status at the school.
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
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
Call any vegetable and the chances are good that the vegetable will respond to you.
Frank Zappa
