More quotes by Jello Biafra
I think that what's perceived as punk out in shopping malls or in chain stores or on MTV has almost nothing to do with what punk is about.
Jello Biafra
I'm tired of being ruled by the Skull and Bones. The only place they belong are on punk-rock albums!
Jello Biafra
I'm totally down with insurrection in the street. I've had a great time with that over the years. Insurrection in the voting booth is the other part of the equation.

You have to be down here in the States to realize just how tightly controlled the corporate media is and how much they practise Soviet-style censorship through creative omission.
Jello Biafra
I enjoy getting people angry and getting underneath their skin, especially people who don't think.

We need a new law that owners of SUVs (Sport Utility Vehicles) are automatically in the military reserve. Then they can go get their own goddamn oil.

I went to Seattle as just another geek in the food chain, thinking, Well, in my own puny little way, I'd rather be a part of history than just sit and watch it on TV. So, the fact that so many people are starting to ask the right questions and rack their brains for solutions does give me hope.

I think one of the most important things punk brought back was the whole concept of staying independent and doing things yourself. It made music a lot less boring in any category you can name.
Jello Biafra
Method acting has had a major influence both in writing through the eyes of other people, and seeing through the eyes of other people, trying to address different ideas in a way that would go beyond preaching to the choir.
Jello Biafra
Our biggest national security threat is the environmental destruction of our planet and the arms race with ourselves.
Jello Biafra
I got involved because I wanted to help inspire more people to get off their butts and register and vote - not just in this election, but in every other election from now on, you know?
Jello Biafra
If you love god, burn a church.
Jello Biafra
I have very mixed feelings about Jesse Jackson. He's very good about labor, and human and civil rights issues, but not so good on cultural issues.
Jello Biafra
If evolution is outlawed, only outlaws will evolve.
Jello Biafra
I've never been a big fan of subtle art. I like art that gets deep into my head and starts my brain spinning with new ideas and inspiration and my whole body is full of energy.
Jello Biafra
Growing up in a family that listened to almost nothing but classical music had its effects, as well. California Über Alles, the first Dead Kennedys single, was inspired musically more by Japanese Kabuki than anything else.

...balance the budget ? Tax religion.

We've never had a situation where mass media has been so censored, at least in my lifetime. When I was younger, networks like NBC, CBS, were independently owned, and took their jobs as journalists seriously. There used to be documentaries like The Selling of the Pentagon.
