More quotes by Henry Rollins
I think we are in fact, losing free speech. We don't seem to care though. Many of us don't seem to notice. We will have to do a lot of work to bring back the American way to America.
Henry Rollins
Each year, every city in the world that can should have a multiday festival. More people meeting each other, digging new types of music, new foods, new ideas. You want to stop having so many wars? This could be a step in the right direction.
Henry Rollins
What I've found is that a lot of soldiers are surprisingly apolitical. Their reality is, Today I'm going to leave the gate for twelve hours, and I'm going to make it back to the dining facility by sundown with the arms and legs of me and my buddies intact.
Henry Rollins
I'll never forget how the depression and loneliness felt good and bad at the same time. Still does.
Henry Rollins
With a book, there's no volume to turn up. You're very naked with a book.
Henry Rollins
Not that the writers weren't good. I believe in those books and those writers very much. It's just that in the climate it's really hard to keep the lights on and the doors open when you're selling poetry and literature that appeals to a fringe audience.
Henry Rollins
We're at peak oil, peak water, peak resources, and so either we figure it out and let science lead or we head down a very bad, dark trail to where a lot of people aren't going to make it.
Henry Rollins
I don't really write for fun it's not an enjoyable experience. For me, art, or whatever the hell it is I do, has always been a refuge from that which makes me want to tear my lungs out. That's why I play like I play I'm not into entertainment.
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 was a very repressed young person. I wasn't good at school. I didn't fit in.
Henry Rollins
Marriage equality is a term so ridiculous on its face that when you hear it mentioned, you would think you were in Riyadh. Years from now, perhaps we can lose the equality part, the same-sex part and call it what it is - marriage.
Henry Rollins
I think the U.K. is an amazing place and has been extremely good to me. Some of my favorite and most-listened-to bands are from England. I have met many good people there and have been in front of some of the most loyal audiences I have ever encountered.
Henry Rollins
I am too far gone to be rehabilitated.
Henry Rollins
I believe that when the body is strong, the mind thinks strong thoughts.
Henry Rollins
There is no place in the world like Australia. Not even its beautiful neighbor New Zealand.
Henry Rollins
I don't believe it mattered to Timothy McVeigh who was president or who his congressional representative was when he blew up the Murrah Building in 1995.
Henry Rollins
Help me to withstand your beauty as it stands out of reach. Give me the capacity to forget ever having felt your touch.

Some music really does suck!
Henry Rollins
I want my fellow citizens to wise up and stop falling for [war]. I try with my limited access, I'm not getting into Kabul with a camera, they're not letting me get into Benghazi with a camera. I do what I can with my flimsy American passport and a visa. The photos are a bit more heavy from Southern Sudan and Haiti and Cuba.
Henry Rollins
Will punk rock ever die? Pal, if you have to ask it's dead to you.
