What if Americans were all judged by the actions of the Bush administration and people did not know the truth? That America is full of people who are, at present, poorly represented and poorly catered to by the media.

More quotes by Henry Rollins
I'm not in a position where I get to pick and choose roles. I usually go on auditions in long lines and embarrass myself in front of casting directors, and with a lump in my throat and my ears burning, I walk past reception and smirking actors as I go to the parking garage and go back on the highway.
Henry Rollins
I'm not exactly ambitious as much as I have a very good realization of what I am and what I am capable of.
Henry Rollins
I think to write fiction, this is just how I see it, you have to have a powerful need/desire to connect. I can't. Wanting to and not being able to has lead to a lot of misery in my life.
Henry Rollins
Respect is not a one way street
Henry Rollins
I think we are in fact, losing free speech. We don't seem to care though. Many of us don't seem to notice. We will have to do a lot of work to bring back the American way to America.
Henry Rollins
I lay off a lot modern fiction and only rely on living writers for non-fiction work.
Henry Rollins
It's difficult for me to be around anyone for longer than an hour. Love, death, elation, sorrow, I just don't care all that much about any of it. I am at this point, more of an observer/journalist.
Henry Rollins
Having an identity is one thing. Being born into an identity is quite a different matter.
Henry Rollins
Songs sung under duress are often very powerful.
Henry Rollins
Everything you do makes my body scream with loneliness.
Henry Rollins
I tend to gravitate to the darkest or most obscure part of any venue in an effort to have my own space to experience the music on my own, free from unwanted conversations and other distractions.
Henry Rollins
When Black Flag and DOA and all those bands were touring in the early 80s, it was kind of a forest and you just kind of got your way through it. Now it's like a six lane highway with Starbucks every twenty meters. That's just civilization.
Henry Rollins
The more I learn about Mr. Romney, the less there is to admire.
Henry Rollins
Cynicism is only intellectual sloth.
Henry Rollins
Help me to withstand your beauty as it stands out of reach. Give me the capacity to forget ever having felt your touch.
Henry Rollins
One person's roar is another's whine, just as one person's music is another's unendurable noise.
Henry Rollins
Voting is completely important. People in America think democracy is a given. I think of it as an ecosystem, and what gets in the way of it is politicians and apathy.
Henry Rollins
Youth is fleeting and life is short, you might as well strike hard. Anything else is just average.
Henry Rollins
I don't really have any women in my life, actually those two - the women in my life are two married women who work at my office.
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.
