More quotes by Henry Rollins
Youth is fleeting and life is short, you might as well strike hard. Anything else is just average.
Henry Rollins
I think to write fiction, this is just how I see it, you have to have a powerful need/desire to connect. I can't. Wanting to and not being able to has lead to a lot of misery in my life.
Henry Rollins
I'll never forget how the depression and loneliness felt good and bad at the same time. Still does.
Henry Rollins
I have to keep moving I don't want to think I'm going to work all day today I don't want to stop Don't want to let my brain catch up my thoughts How will I be able to tell them that I'm a shadow A grey patch of cold rotting life
Henry Rollins
With writing, there are multiple drafts. On stage, there is one take. I do a lot of preparation for shows, so, for the most part, what you hear me say is pretty much what I wanted to get at.
Henry Rollins
Russia is tough. The history, the land, the people - brutal.
Henry Rollins
Citizens United didn't work. Hey, Koch brothers, Karl Rove, Shellgame Adelson: Democracy trumps money sometimes.
Henry Rollins
No time for drug addiction, no time for smoke or booze. Too strong for a shortened life span, I've got no time to lose.
Henry Rollins
As performers grow older, I reckon there are two ways they can go. They can either be up there, playing more deeply from their guts than ever, or they can be phoning it in so crassly that it leaves a lump in your throat as you leave the venue at the end of the show.
Henry Rollins
I'm not interested in censorship. I like the First Amendment very much.
Henry Rollins
I've made some great mistakes in my life, but, you know, they were honest mistakes.
Henry Rollins
It's so painful to be next to someone you feel strongly about and know you can't say the things you want to.
Henry Rollins
I definitely learned a lesson this time. I know that I can be broken. I am not as tough as I thought. I see it now. At this point, it's the only thing good that came out of all of this. I know myself better now and know what I have to do.
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
I don't have a wife, I don't have any kids, I don't have any addictions that keep me drooling on the couch, and I'm kind of target oriented.
Henry Rollins
I wasn't playing the music, the music was playing me... and once that went away, and I had the feeling I was playing music, I had to stop. The need to go onstage and get my brain flattened every night left me, and what I didn't wanna do is go onstage and perpetrate a fraud... You cannot fool an audience.
Henry Rollins
I wonder how Colin Powell sleeps at night. I would like to have a word with him because he lied. He lied. He lied to me. He lied to my face through the camera at the U.N.
Henry Rollins
When you title yourself, you immediately lend yourself to all kinds of pretension
Henry Rollins
I think in rural settings, people have a different appreciation for animals than might the city dweller. In parts of India where poisonous snake bite is common, people have a much different value system. I live in a city. I'm not thinking about wolves, lions, etc.
Henry Rollins
Somewhere someone is thinking of you. Someone is calling you an angel. This person is using celestial colors to paint your image. Someone is making you into a vision so beautiful that it can only live in the mind.
Henry Rollins
