More quotes by Henry Rollins
When you see the Escalades and the Hummers driving down the street, at least in Los Angeles, this dry, flat desert with shopping malls, when you see someone driving one of those through this you're like, 'You are definitely part of the problem.'
Henry Rollins
A man with an excruciatingly painful condition wrote me and told me that his doctor said that the only cure for what he has is death, and he might want to consider suicide. What do you say to him? I doubt the, Hey let's go get some coffee and talk thing is going to be at all helpful.

My mother taught me how to read very early on and at school I was ahead of everyone in class... Reading was always something that I liked because I could do it alone and I was alone a lot of the time with my mother working the hours she did. Books became my friends very early on.
Henry Rollins

I've been in Iraq, and it never occurred to me to go, 'Hey, this war is bogus,' to some guy who's 24 hours a day trying not to get shot at or blown up.
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
Will punk rock ever die? Pal, if you have to ask it's dead to you.
Henry Rollins
The only thing about sanctions is that, like a lot of drone strikes, there are countless unintended victims. Cutting off aid to Uganda only increases the pain there.
Henry Rollins
I get a lot of shit because I put I in the lyrics all the time. The I is always for someone else... When I say I, it's so that when that person is singing along with the song, it empowers them.
Henry Rollins
I think I am the most impressed with writing styles that defy category, like Kharms or Selby, Breton or Jarry, where you become as interested in the writer as much as the writing itself. It's all these things that make reading so appealing to me.
Henry Rollins
I'm not trying to amass people in the streets. I just want them to be more aware.
Henry Rollins
From those who agonize that they may no longer be able to write off their private jet to someone who doesn't feel like making the three mile hike to the well to get water and carry it back, everyone struggles.
Henry Rollins
My father did not rock. He just earned and hated. Don't end up like this man.
Henry Rollins
I always start tours with a great deal of anticipation.
Henry Rollins
It is amazing to hear grown-up people rationalize homophobia and discrimination. The lengths they go to trying to prove their points take reason to its breaking point.
Henry Rollins
There are religions and social and moral awareness in any society that gets passed immediately. Those human truths. All cultures address them.
Henry Rollins
While they flail about, you will remain calm in the knowledge that you possess strength from within.
