Henry Rollins
I'm not much of an improv guy. That's a talent I don't have.
Henry Rollins
To justify being listened to, I try to be as well informed as I can. Hence, the travel. Reading is good too. Reading gets you part way there, and I do read pretty voraciously for a guy who's trying to write so much.
Henry Rollins
I lay off a lot modern fiction and only rely on living writers for non-fiction work.
Henry Rollins
When you're very young, images that you upload into your very young mind tend to stay with you.
