More quotes by Henry Rollins
I love being a storyteller. I love telling stories.
Henry Rollins
I believe that when the body is strong, the mind thinks strong thoughts.
Henry Rollins
Trying to write music, be in a band and keep it all happening is one of the hardest, morale-destroying, heartbreaking things you will ever try to do - and that's when it's going well.
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
One of the odd enjoyments in life is to be alone in a room full of people. To have them there as unknowing human filler in your wide shot.
Henry Rollins
August, the summer's last messenger of misery, is a hollow actor.
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.
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
Don't push me I've got a corner at my back I've nowhere to go except over you.
Henry Rollins
It is just that I don't want a wife and I don't want kids.
Henry Rollins
Don’t think about it. Do it. Don’t talk about it. Do it.
Henry Rollins
Nothing moves me more than the history of the United States.
Henry Rollins
I take the work seriously, just not myself in it.
Henry Rollins
The material you work with is that which you will come to resemble. That which you work against will always work against you, including yourself.
Henry Rollins
I'm usually busy - if you call me at the house, I get about four phone calls there a year - I'm usually running around the house with a pen in my mouth holding onto something, folding it, or doing something to it, and it's always a bad time.
Henry Rollins
It took me until my teenage years to realize that I was medicating with music. I was pushing back against my stupid school uniform, instructors who called me by my last name and my classmates, who, while friendly enough, were not at all inspiring.
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
Don't do anything by half. If you love someone, love them with all your soul.
Henry Rollins
In my world there would be as many public libraries as there are Starbucks.
Henry Rollins
Rarely do I do film press because I'm so low on the food chain of the movie, and for me it's just this thing I did for four weeks before the next tour started.
