More quotes by Henry Rollins
I am afforded a bit of easy wonderment in relative comfort as to how humans have lasted so long. Climate- and geography-wise, the planet seems to have little use for us.
Henry Rollins
The ones who don't do anything are always the ones who try to pull you down.
Henry Rollins
I think young people should travel and travel often to other countries like I do.
Henry Rollins
I have been listening to the Stooges' self-titled first album for well over half my life, and it remains one of the most exciting and essential records I have ever had the good fortune to come into contact with.
Henry Rollins
I love to go on stage and sing.
Henry Rollins
I'm not a very good writer. I'm working at it.
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
If I had to live my life in anticipation of what others thought of me, little would get done.
Henry Rollins
The only safety is in the middle of total misunderstanding and deception.
Henry Rollins
I think that humans have a huge capacity to carry pain and sadness. There are things that haunt us our entire lives we are unable to let them go. The good times seem almost effervescent and dreamlike in comparison with the times that didn't go so well.
Henry Rollins
It's hard to judge literary merit.
Henry Rollins
The fact is, in the minds of many, Trayvon Martin received the appropriate punishment for a true crime: He was black, male and dared to walk outside. In life, young Trayvon was just a teenager in death, he has been transformed into a scary, lurking, suspicious, prone-to-violence spook.
Henry Rollins
Girls aren't beautiful, they're pretty. Beautiful is too heavy a word to assign to a girl. Women are beautiful because their faces show that they know they have lost something and picked up something else.
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
My whole access into culture was violent. Violence is something I understand. Don't like it, don't condone it, but I sure understand where it comes from.
Henry Rollins
They say true love only comes around once and you have to hold out and be strong until then. I have been waiting. I have been searching. I am a man under the moon, walking the streets of earth until dawn. There's got to be someone for me. It's not too much to ask. Just someone to be with. Someone to love. Someone to give everything to. Someone.
Henry Rollins
I used to love you I still do So Selfish I love the old you The you that didnt shoot drugs ...The you that didnt get beat on by men You laugh in my face and call me a fool But its true I still love you Sometimes,I can see the old you When your eyes flash When you almost look alive
Henry Rollins
You can still function as a living ruin.
Henry Rollins
I get letters from young people telling me that they're broke and download my albums for free. They ask me what I think about that. I now have a standard line. I tell them, 'I would rather be heard than paid.'
Henry Rollins
I've made some great mistakes in my life, but, you know, they were honest mistakes.
Henry Rollins
