I've always wanted male friends that I could be real intimate with and talk about important things with and be as affectionate with that person as I would be with a girl.
Kurt Cobain

I was looking for something a lot heavier, yet melodic at the same time. Something different from heavy metal, a different attitude.

A friend is nothing but a known enemy.

Ever since the beginning of rock and roll, there's been an Axl Rose. And it's just boring. It's totally boring to me.

My generation's apathy. I'm disgusted with it. I'm disgusted with my own apathy too, for being spineless and not always standing up against racism, sexism and all those other -isms the counterculture has been whining about for years.

I wasn’t thriving socially, so I stayed in my room and played guitar all the time, at the time, I thought I was inventing a new sound that would change the whole outlook of music. I’ve discovered in the last few years that it was just the Seattle Sub Pop sound.

I wanted to have the adoration of John Lennon but have the anonymity of Ringo Starr. I didn't want to be a frontman I just wanted to be back there and still be a rock and roll star at the same time.

I hate myself, and I want to die

I'll be the first to admit that we're the 90's version of Cheap Trick or the Knack...

I just don't like to get intimate. I don't want anyone to know what I feel and what I think, and if they can't get some kind of an idea of what sort of person I am through my music, then that's too bad.

In the sun I feel as one.

I've had this terrible stomach problem for years, and that has made touring difficult. People would see me sitting in the corner by myself looking sick and gloomy. The reason is that I was trying to fight against the stomach pain, trying to hold my food down. People looked me and assumed I was some kind of addict.

That's what music is: entertainment. The more you put yourself into it, the more of you comes out in it.

Here we are now, entertain us.

Alternative music is no longer alternative once it’s in the mainstream.
