More quotes by Jim Goad
I'm more muscular than I was in my younger days. My biceps and shoulders, especially.
Jim Goad
It amazes me that some people who ordinarily can recognize autocratic bullying, tacky sloganeering, and - especially - camp value are unable to spot it in this Hate Scare that grips the Western world.
Jim Goad
I tend not to hang with 'the crowd' because I believe that at any given moment in history, the crowd is only standing somewhere because some lone, brave nutjob broke down the walls for them first.
Jim Goad
The average human's fundamental project is to find someone else to blame for their problems.
Jim Goad
Homosexuality is genetically hardwired but race and gender are only ideas. OK. Just trying to keep up.

I didn't see much besides Melbourne and a quick trip down to the Twelve Apostles, but all the Aussies I encountered were good-spirited and had a fine sense of humor.
Jim Goad
I'll argue anyone into the dust when it comes to facts.
Jim Goad
Many of the racial problems in America are caused by the fact that people are innately tribal, and politicians know how to exploit that biological fact.
Jim Goad
Mind you, I live in an area of Atlanta that is nearly 88% black. But in six days in and around Melbourne, I saw maybe three people of African origin and maybe one easily identifiable Australian aborigine.

I'll hit anyone who's seriously threatening my life... that's what happened, and that's what sent me to prison.

I prefer for a woman's most private of areas to have as much hair as Carlos Santana's entire band, head to toe, circa 1972.

My oldest brother was stabbed thirty to forty times and strangled to death with his own belt when I was eight years old. Much of my life has been pockmarked with violence. So I had a natural interest in the topic, along with a strong home-field advantage.
Jim Goad
My hatred is diamond-hard.
Jim Goad
Society's only real 'progressives' are the deviants and mutants. Look at evolution - fish who didn't deviate never became amphibians frogs who didn't mutate never became reptiles conformist snakes never became mammals , etc. Normal Humans will remain humans, and they'll be subjugated by the digital monsters of the next few millenia.
Jim Goad
If anything, I've probably tended more toward humor in my writing and veered more toward pleasure in my personal life.
Jim Goad
I think that any time a person comes face-to-face with their own mortality - close enough to Death that they can smell its breath - they have a choice: 1) Fall to pieces 2) Reassemble yourself and keep walking.
Jim Goad
I can't tell you how many times people - through the anonymity and safety of the Internet, of course - have told me 'You beat women' as if it was an ongoing, daily thing. The only person ever brave enough to say it to my face quickly surrendered his courage when I said, 'Would you like to step outside and see if I can beat men, too?'
Jim Goad
I'm alive, happier than I've ever been, and I'm doing exactly what I want.
Jim Goad
To think that humans evolved from lower species BUT the evolutionary process somehow came to a halt and we all arrived at the finish line simultaneously is to embrace a fiction possibly more implausible than Christianity.
Jim Goad
I don't think fatherhood's changed me so much as it's conjured protective instincts I've had all along.
