When you're kept out of the adult world, it's a blessing in disguise.
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.

I think marriage is a boring and fault-ridden contractual obligation.

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.

Music files and downloading have indeed changed the currency of music to a great degree.
Henry Rollins
Image
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
Image
I'm a liar. I'll rip your mind up. I'll burn your soul, I'll turn you in to me.

We are occupants. No one has any lasting purchase on life or on the planet.
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.

While I disagree with our presence in Iraq and Afghanistan, I have nothing but respect and admiration for the men and women deployed in these places.

Hope is the last thing a person does before they are defeated.

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.

I believe that one defines oneself by reinvention.
