More quotes by Henry Rollins
It'll destroy you if you try to make it mean anything to anyone but yourself.
Henry Rollins
Anywhere you hang yourself is home.
Henry Rollins
I get letters from young people telling me that they're broke and download my albums for free. They ask me what I think about that. I now have a standard line. I tell them, 'I would rather be heard than paid.'
Henry Rollins
I could fall in love with a cruel desert that kills without passion, a canyon full of scorpions, one thousand blinding arctic storms, a century sealed in a cave, a river of molten salt flowing down my throat. But never with you.
Henry Rollins
I remain hopeful that science, innovation and kindness will come to the fore as things become more and more tense in parts of the world. I think what you are seeing in the world right now is kind of a leveling or an attempt to level the playing field.
Henry Rollins
I think as resources become more dear, we really need to consider population.
Henry Rollins
If some band sucks, you're going to have to find out about it for yourself, because I don't have the interest in issuing warnings.
Henry Rollins
I'd defend myself. But I don't go around shoving people around that's not me at all - that's for a cop. I'm not into that type of behavior at all.
Henry Rollins
Imagine someone so infatuated by a band that they have every different pressing of every album the band made. Most of the time, the only difference in the album is the matrix number or a different 'made in' notation on the back cover or label. This is enough to make some people extremely excited. Actually, much more than excited.
Henry Rollins
I think about the meaning of pain. Pain is personal. It really belongs to the one feeling it. Probably the only thing that is your own. I like mine.
Henry Rollins
The only difference between me and others is that they think they can change something with cute little poems, nice cards or embracing trees and being nice to little lapdogs.
Henry Rollins
I like boring black and white films with subtitles. I'm basically a drip.
Henry Rollins
I really enjoy the lattitude I have with being a private citizen. I can get a lot done. I am good with that.
Henry Rollins
Everyone who knows me knows that I'm a hopeless romantic who listens to love ballads and doo-wop songs all the time.
Henry Rollins
Republicans just can't help themselves. They get in front of a live microphone and within a few sentences are rocketing down the swiftest and most direct route to the all-you-can-eat comedian-and-talk-show-host buffet.
Henry Rollins
America's foreign policy lacks the backbone to do the right thing in Afghanistan - which is leave.
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
It has been hard to get my head around how Justice Antonin Scalia rationalizes his decisions. His body blow to the Voting Rights Act was a head scratcher, but at least he was calm when he attempted to justify his odd logic.
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.
Henry Rollins
The kid who throws his spaghetti from the high chair onto his father's face, he's pushing back. He's sticking it to the man as he sees it. I like that. So that is punk.
Henry Rollins
