More quotes by Henry Rollins
I'm most comfortable on stage.
Henry Rollins
Maybe some things are better left broken and scattered Veiled in darkness, secret bitterness and self-doubt I should have known better Than to start something that I couldn't finish That I couldn't care about That I couldn't remember starting in the first place I don't want to know you You went years without me You might as well keep going.
Henry Rollins
No magic. I do believe you might have taken it all with you when you went away.
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 don't want to fail the audience. I don't want to let them down.
Henry Rollins
If I could go to Kabul and not die, I would go back to Afghanistan as soon as I could. And, that was the most interesting place that I've been to.
Henry Rollins
I've always seen it as the role of an artist to drag his inside out, give the audience all you've got. Writers, actors, singers, all good artists do the same. It isn't supposed to be easy.
Henry Rollins
We know that in September, we will wander through the warm winds of summer's wreckage. We will welcome summer's ghost.
Henry Rollins
Pride is a thing that I have tried to abandon completely. Try as I might, pride still creeps into many of the things I do.
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
I always start tours with a great deal of anticipation.
Henry Rollins
Nothing moves me more than the history of the United States.
Henry Rollins
I don't have many friends so the phone doesn't ring and no one's asking me to go out and go dancing with them.
Henry Rollins
My feelings for you shame me into silence.
Henry Rollins
I used to sit on the roof of the apartment where Jim Morrison used to write his early lyrics
Henry Rollins
My acting range is incredibly limited and narrow, but I'm a good heavy. I'm a good authoritarian figure I don't know why. Can you be a cop? Sure. Can you be a Marine? Absolutely. Well, at least in a movie.
Henry Rollins
It is just that I don't want a wife and I don't want kids.
Henry Rollins
In blues music, there's a lot of borrowing, so it's often difficult to identify the originator of a song.
Henry Rollins
Now and then, someone is able to look at an empty space, conclude it would be a great place to start a revolution, and bravely go forward.
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.
