More quotes by Henry Rollins
I was never told to Get up, get out there, get a job. It was never a thing either parent ever said I had to do. It was what I wanted to do. I think I was very interested in being away from them as much as possible. Employment was great for that.
Henry Rollins
When you start to doubt yourself the real world will eat you alive.
Henry Rollins
I don't try to be angry to prove something. I wouldn't try to intimidate you for any reason unless you were trying to intimidate me, and then I would show you that you can't do that to me.
Henry Rollins
Hope is the last thing a person does before they are defeated.
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
It's sad when someone you know becomes someone you knew.
Henry Rollins
Half of life is up - the other half is dealing with it.
Henry Rollins
George Zimmerman is a foot soldier in a rapidly privatizing country. He is a new centurion of 21st-century America. Law enforcement is tied down by the strictures of, well, the law. There is only 'so much they can do' to take care of the 'problem.'

I'm a professional food eater.
Henry Rollins
I always start tours with a great deal of anticipation.
Henry Rollins
There are religions and social and moral awareness in any society that gets passed immediately. Those human truths. All cultures address them.
Henry Rollins
There're some places that are more difficult or dangerous to navigate and I wouldn't look forward to going back. Like I'd much rather go back to Afghanistan - which fascinates me - quicker than I'd go back to spend a week walking around Nairobi, Kenya, which is a great and easy way to get yourself killed.
Henry Rollins
I have built my life to pursue the new. I don't have family, don't know many people and I am usually ready to leave within an hour.
Henry Rollins
Try driving the streets of Los Angeles without seeing a billboard depicting a film with a lead actor holding a gun. It's almost as if guns are harmless props used to bring out the cheekbones and jawline of the screen star.
Henry Rollins
I can't remember that I ever had just a minute of stage fright.
Henry Rollins
Rock is ironic in that, up to a certain point, you can get better and better at it if you don't mind possibly looking more and more ridiculous.
Henry Rollins
August, the summer's last messenger of misery, is a hollow actor.
Henry Rollins
The ones who don't do anything are always the ones who try to pull you down.
Henry Rollins
Miles Davis would have this lineup of all these amazing musicians and one day would just say, 'We're done.' After tons of great records and tickets sold, he said, 'Now I'm going to grow my hair out and play my horn through a wah-wah pedal.' Rather than play it safe, he went on.
Henry Rollins
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.
