More quotes by John Mellencamp
The CD, it should be noted, was born out of greed. It was devised to prop up record sales on the expectation of people replenishing their record collections with CDs of albums they had already purchased.
John Mellencamp

Grace, Mercy and Forgiveness will help a man walk tall. Walk tall!

I've never fit in in any music world. I've always been an outsider. I mean, the fact that I live in Indiana - I live in a fly-over state... I'm not running away from anything, that's the problem. Most people go to cities because they don't like where they come from.
John Mellencamp

John Mellencamp
I have a bunch of information in my head that I'm not afraid to put in song or onto a canvas. Into any conversation.

John Mellencamp
I know a lot of funny people in a lot of funny places.
John Mellencamp
The reason I said the Internet is dangerous is that a couple smart guys could hack into a computer and shut down the Eastern seaboard if they wanted to. It's a terrible, out-of-control thing.
John Mellencamp
I've just been fortunate to havehad a lot of hit records, though Human Wheels doesn't qualify as a hit record-but it's really the best single I've ever had.
John Mellencamp
I remember the first time I saw a CD, a technology guy brought one to my house and said we will be able to sell millions and millions of players, and people will have to restock their record collections. It was all about money. It was all about how much money we would make, we being him.

I think the Internet is the most dangerous thing invented since the atomic bomb.
