More quotes by Henry Rollins
I guess, topic to topic, you could consider me a left-leaning person.
Henry Rollins
I am primarily a loner. I don't go to clubs. I don't hang out with people. I don't know many people. It's just the way it ended up. It's not a sob story it's fine for me.
Henry Rollins
It's difficult for me to be around anyone for longer than an hour. Love, death, elation, sorrow, I just don't care all that much about any of it. I am at this point, more of an observer/journalist.
Henry Rollins
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was vigorously and vociferously opposed by the Southern states. President Lyndon B. Johnson signed it into law nonetheless.
Henry Rollins
Certainly, there are huge, multiplatinum bands whose singers command their audience's attention. Sadly, much of the time they have little to say.
Henry Rollins
I am a white guy in America with an education, albeit high school, but a pretty good one. Another guy from a different demographic or different ethnicity in America can look at me and say, You take a lot for granted. Well... okay. I just live in a white male American reality, where I hear you but I don't know if I necessarily read you.
Henry Rollins
I consider any gun that can chamber a round and send a projectile down its barrel at a high rate of speed into my body - causing me injury or death - to be an assault weapon.
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
What goes best with a cup of coffee? Another cup.
Henry Rollins
It is impossible, after a certain point, to go back to a previous way of life, a previous way of thinking.
Henry Rollins
Death metal uses a lot of white face paint and black hair dye to make its point. I quite enjoy this genre for its intensity, extremism and underlying irony: You have to be alive to play it and listen to it.
Henry Rollins
That's where the economy is going. It went somewhere. Just not to America. And the money made? That went to the Cayman Islands and Switzerland. Not back here. Never to be taxed.
Henry Rollins
A text conversation is a short exchange of often grossly truncated language that corresponds to a thought made all the more shallow by the process.
Henry Rollins
A great way to learn about your country is to leave it.
Henry Rollins
You could split hairs and bring up words like 'doo-wop' and terms like 'soul' or 'R&B', but I think pop music is what you want it to be - that's why it's pop.
Henry Rollins
We city dwellers, we residents of Los Angeles and the surrounding areas, are for the most part urbanized to some extent. We know deadlines, start times and traffic.
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 travel because I want to know. Books and documentaries will only get you so far. If you want to know, you will have to go.
Henry Rollins
Where there is young people and vitality, you're going to find punk rock.
Henry Rollins
Quite often people will get an animal which is probably not a good idea for them to have. They get it out of enthusiasm, there is a genuine interest, but sometimes they're not exactly prepared for what they're getting themselves into.
