More quotes by Henry Rollins
August used to be a sad month for me. As the days went on, the thought of school starting weighed heavily upon my young frame. That, coupled with the oppressive heat and humidity of my native Washington, D.C., only seemed to heighten the misery.
Henry Rollins
I can only write about personal stuff, about my point of view.
Henry Rollins
When I'm off the road, and I can really control my diet down to the calorie, I juice seven days a week. Every afternoon, whatever I have at hand, beets, carrots, ginger, whatever. I juice, literally, every single day. And on the road, I try to find fresh juice wherever I can.
Henry Rollins
If an American company has a drop of patriotic blood coursing through its system, then surely it would set up in America and employ Americans, right?
Henry Rollins
How memories lie to us. How time coats the ordinary with gold. How it breaks the heart to go back and attempt to re-live them. How crushed we are when we discover that the gold was merely gold-plating thinly coated over lead, chalk and peeling paint.
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
Horror jolts me when I look at one of you and see a pair of beautiful eyes that make me think your mind might contain a world that could hold me as the bolts shake loose and fly from my frame.
Henry Rollins
If the truth is told how I want to be remembered... as someone who cared. Someone who worked really hard and someone who didn't sit around.
Henry Rollins
Youth is fleeting and life is short, you might as well strike hard. Anything else is just average.
Henry Rollins
Entertainment's hard on the ego. I see why actors are so psycho now. Because there's so much 'we don't want you' going on in acting. Even big people get rejected but the smaller people - they really get rejected. Trust me - I know.
Henry Rollins
The best revenge is to always survive yourself.
Henry Rollins
I can tell you exactly where the economy is going. It's going to China, Honduras, Guatemala, Cambodia, Vietnam, Cipan, and any other place where you can pay people peanuts and have them work like dogs.
Henry Rollins
I believe in North, South, East, West, The seasons, life and death, geography. That which is provable, absolute and most of all, functional. I believe in things that can kill me.
Henry Rollins
If I think of the audience too much, then I'm going to start catering to them...and it turns into entertainment. And I've got time for entertainment I'm just not at all that interested in doing it myself. I'd rather go for some pretty raw expression.
Henry Rollins
I don't want to fail the audience. I don't want to let them down.
Henry Rollins
We Californians can watch the Weather Channel for images of winter's brutality unleashed upon our fellow Americans and thank our lucky stars we don't have to contend with it.
Henry Rollins
I like the idea of someone else’s love safely sealed in a song or a book.
Henry Rollins
I think hip-hop has definitely brought the black experience to white kids more than the civil rights movement did and more than any teacher's well-intentioned lecture on Martin Luther King did.
Henry Rollins
The only thing worse than the Pastor Terry Jones scheduled Koran burning is the fact that he canceled the proposed event.
Henry Rollins
When you're kept out of the adult world, it's a blessing in disguise.
Henry Rollins
