We occupy the planet with a vengeance. We seek to dominate it.
Henry Rollins
perfection. I have been waiting all my life to be with you. My heart slams against my ribs when I think of the slaughtered nights I spent all over the world waiting to feel your touch.
Henry Rollins
What you do for yourself is one thing. What you do for others is something else entirely.
Henry Rollins
If you listen to the way I speak and watch the way I conduct myself - there's nothing about me that's rock n' roll. It's like, 'Hello, I'm in a rock n' roll band'. 'No, you're a narc.'
Henry Rollins
I live my life through the prism of capitalism and physiological limits and eventualities. In all of that, there is no spirituality required. No God and karma is needed for the numbers. I live my life by the numbers. Not only am I an American, I am an Americanist.
Henry Rollins
We're at peak oil, peak water, peak resources, and so either we figure it out and let science lead or we head down a very bad, dark trail to where a lot of people aren't going to make it.
Henry Rollins
I believe that capitalism, at least how it's used by major corporations, and environmental concerns are in opposition. To be ecologically aware, productivity of many things would slow down at least for awhile. Stockholders don't want to hear about the saving of the whales or some stream in Kentucky.

Keep me preoccupied Keep me busy, busy, busy So I won't have to think I don't want to think Because it only brings me pain I just keep running away from My problems Keep me busy Give me a million things to do So I can keep running away from myself.

I want to meet a woman that will make me stop and listen to what she has to say. I want a woman who will make my jaw drop in awe. A woman that has little time for me. One who does not throw herself at me. One who respects herself who has a sense of herself. Where is she
Henry Rollins
August in sub-Saharan Los Angeles is one of the great and awful tests of one's endurance, sanity and stamina.
Henry Rollins
I was happy to find out that when on tour, Dolly Parton doesn't use hotels but stays on her bus every night, to the point of having her buses shipped from Austria to Australia so she can tour the way she sees fit. I used one of her buses once - an honor.
Henry Rollins
I have been an XL fan of Devo since I was in high school in the 1970s. Their records only sound better with time.
Henry Rollins
I think marriage is a boring and fault-ridden contractual obligation.
Henry Rollins
There is no heaven for me and no hell. And certainly not any Karma.
Henry Rollins
As performers grow older, I reckon there are two ways they can go. They can either be up there, playing more deeply from their guts than ever, or they can be phoning it in so crassly that it leaves a lump in your throat as you leave the venue at the end of the show.
Henry Rollins
I am primarily a loner. I don't go to clubs. I don't hang out with people. I don't know many people. It's just the way it ended up. It's not a sob story it's fine for me.
Henry Rollins
Most of the people who call me a sellout were 7 when I was down face-first in the punk trenches.
Henry Rollins
I am a pretty crazy person, so it's best for me to be on my own most of the time.
Henry Rollins
I was never told to Get up, get out there, get a job. It was never a thing either parent ever said I had to do. It was what I wanted to do. I think I was very interested in being away from them as much as possible. Employment was great for that.
Henry Rollins
You can pass all the gun legislation you want. None of it will make me feel any more or less safe than I do right at this moment.
Henry Rollins
