More quotes by Henry Rollins
Young, gay and stuck in Arkansas? Sounds like a horror flick.
Henry Rollins
Whether I will be remembered at all, I really don't get to choose, unless I shoot someone famous. It's not really anything I have much control over.
Henry Rollins
Hopefully, one enhances [when growing older] his sense of humor. As he approaches 50, he'll need all the humor he can get.
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
I'm a liar. I'll rip your mind up. I'll burn your soul, I'll turn you in to me.
Henry Rollins
All of the jobs have gone away to satisfy the stockholders, so that's where the economy has gone. These major multinational corporations do not see their futures in America.
Henry Rollins

Henry Rollins
There's no rule that you have to like Henry Rollins the musician or the actor.
Henry Rollins
Misery, depression, elation all mine, refine confinement all my design.
Henry Rollins
I think it is incumbent on anyone who can to lift human dignity to the highest possible levels, maintaining one's own and helping to raise that of others.
Henry Rollins
I don't want to play old music. To me, it is fighting battles that are already over and calling yourself a warrior. For me, I see no courage or adventure in doing the old thing over again. If others want to, that's for them. For myself, I have to move on. Life is too short to live in the past. There is a lot to be done.
Henry Rollins
If it's a man's world, as they say, then men, your world is a poorly run carnage fest.
Henry Rollins
Youth is fleeting and life is short, you might as well strike hard. Anything else is just average.
Henry Rollins
Don't go to summer camp. Bury your parents in the backyard and have the place to yourself.
Henry Rollins
Everything you do makes my body scream with loneliness.
Henry Rollins
In my bright, utopian future world, they will hand out college educations like cups of water at the end of the L.A. Marathon.
Henry Rollins
As far as I have been able to understand, the Japanese seem to keep things close to the vest. Friendly but remote and polite to the point of being invisible. It is in the music, literature, film and art that the Japanese really seem to express themselves.
Henry Rollins
What I've found is that a lot of soldiers are surprisingly apolitical. Their reality is, Today I'm going to leave the gate for twelve hours, and I'm going to make it back to the dining facility by sundown with the arms and legs of me and my buddies intact.
Henry Rollins
I was at the first Minor Threat show, and you could tell, 'This band is going to be the king of the town.' It was obvious. They were so good.
Henry Rollins
Why do you think the old stories tell of men who set out on great journeys to impress the gods? Because trying to impress people just isn't worth the time and effort.
Henry Rollins
