More quotes by Henry Rollins
The tasks I set out for myself are what I do to beat the perfect pointlessness of life.
Henry Rollins
Is it a shame that I can’t accept love? Am I too burned out to move towards what will keep me alive or too smart to get pulled into someone else’s world?
Henry Rollins
I think there is something very interesting about people who live day to day in an environment where they could get taken out by a wild animal. There has to be some kind respect that is derived from that relationship.
Henry Rollins
Keep your blood clean, your body lean, and your mind sharp.
Henry Rollins
Keep me preoccupied Keep me busy, busy, busy So I won't have to think I don't want to think Because it only brings me pain I just keep running away from My problems Keep me busy Give me a million things to do So I can keep running away from myself.
Henry Rollins
I'm always looking, people are always presenting and I have found that every year of my life there's been great bands. All over the world, all the time. So when someone goes, Music sucks now! I'll go, I don't think so. Not over at my house.
Henry Rollins
I have no desire to write anything for screen. That's a great talent.
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
The Wacken festival started more than 20 years ago with just a few hundred people in attendance. Tickets now sell out before the lineup is announced.
Henry Rollins
I was very lucky to have had the opportunity to tour with the Beastie Boys and watched almost every set they played on all those dates. Why not? You do your set and then you get to see the Beasties play? Best deal in town.
Henry Rollins
And I laugh at myself when I screw things up, which happens all the time.
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
Through the years, I have combined meditation, action, and the Iron into a single strength. I believe that when the body is strong, the mind thinks strong thoughts. Time spent away from the Iron makes my mind degenerate. I wallow in a thick depression. My body shuts down my mind.
Henry Rollins
In my world there would be as many public libraries as there are Starbucks.
Henry Rollins
Voting is completely important. People in America think democracy is a given. I think of it as an ecosystem, and what gets in the way of it is politicians and apathy.
Henry Rollins
Rush Limbaugh makes money getting simpleminded people to feel good about their intellectually undernourished brain spasms. He's very good at it, and I scarcely believe a fraction of what he says.
Henry Rollins
If the Constitution was a movie, the Preamble would be the trailer, the First Amendment the establishing shot, the 13th the crowd pleaser and the 14th the ultimate hero scene.
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
The public library system of the United States is worth preserving.
Henry Rollins
Most of the people who call me a sellout were 7 when I was down face-first in the punk trenches.
