More quotes by Henry Rollins

Henry Rollins

Henry Rollins
That's the only interaction I have with people, those talking shows. Most of the people in my phone book are artists, management, producers, engineers. I don't ever call people with, Hi! How are you? I say, How are you? Do you have that 16/30 ready? When do you want me to come into the studio? That's what I do.
Henry Rollins
Music, to me, is mankind's greatest possible achievement because look at all the good it does.
Henry Rollins
Always knowing you're going to die And until then knowing you've got to live.
Henry Rollins
I guess, topic to topic, you could consider me a left-leaning person.
Henry Rollins
Girls aren't beautiful, they're pretty. Beautiful is too heavy a word to assign to a girl. Women are beautiful because their faces show that they know they have lost something and picked up something else.
