More quotes by Henry Rollins
I wonder if it is Australia's great distance from more populated land masses that allows its inhabitants to be left to their own devices, to be incredibly creative and, at times, to be wonderfully weird.
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
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 always found the Chicago audience to be a smart, fast-moving, violent and cheerful lot, and it's always good to be back.
Henry Rollins
I believe in North, South, East, West, The seasons, life and death, geography. That which is provable, absolute and most of all, functional. I believe in things that can kill me.
Henry Rollins
When I'm off the road, and I can really control my diet down to the calorie, I juice seven days a week. Every afternoon, whatever I have at hand, beets, carrots, ginger, whatever. I juice, literally, every single day. And on the road, I try to find fresh juice wherever I can.
Henry Rollins

Henry Rollins
I think Perry Ferrell put independent music on a very good path with Lollapalooza.
Henry Rollins
I have lived in public as a somewhat recognizable person since I was a teenager. Emails I answer end up posted on sites pictures of me and someone I just met, taken by a cellphone, literally number in the thousands and are easily accessed.
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
Just understand that the end began long ago We got here just in time Look All the squares in the sidewalks were already there All these strangers have more money than you do All the good riffs have been taken And everyone is so scared Murder is commonplace I don't even flinch at the gunshots outside my window I feel lonely without them
Henry Rollins
As far as I have been able to understand, the Japanese seem to keep things close to the vest. Friendly but remote and polite to the point of being invisible. It is in the music, literature, film and art that the Japanese really seem to express themselves.
Henry Rollins
It is just that I don't want a wife and I don't want kids.
Henry Rollins
Americans should demand real news, more transparency and more truth.
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
I consider any gun that can chamber a round and send a projectile down its barrel at a high rate of speed into my body - causing me injury or death - to be an assault weapon.
Henry Rollins
America's foreign policy lacks the backbone to do the right thing in Afghanistan - which is leave.
Henry Rollins
You can pass all the gun legislation you want. None of it will make me feel any more or less safe than I do right at this moment.
Henry Rollins
Don't go to summer camp. Bury your parents in the backyard and have the place to yourself.
Henry Rollins
I think Americans really need to start thinking globally. As resources become more dear, we will be pulled closer to the rest of the world anyway.
Henry Rollins
