I'm too busy acting like I'm not Naive. I've seen it all, I was here first.

Thank you for the tragedy. I need it for my art.
Kurt Cobain

Punk rock should mean freedom, liking and excepting anything that you like. Playing whatever you want. As sloppy as you want. As long as it's good and it has passion.
Kurt Cobain
Image
Sometimes I wish I had taken the Bob Dylan route and sang songs where my voice would not go out on me every night, so I could have a career if I wanted.
Kurt Cobain
Image
I'm a spokesman for myself. It just so happens that there's a bunch of people that are concerned with what I have to say. I find that frightening at times because I'm just as confused as most people. I don't have the answers for anything.

I've always had a problem with the average macho man - they've always been a threat to me.

I've never been a very prolific person, so when creativity flows, it flows. I find myself scribbling on little notepads and pieces of loose paper, which results in a very small portion of my writings to ever show up in true form.

There's nothing better than having a baby. I've always loved children. I used to work summers at the YMCA and be in charge of, like, 30 preschool kids. I knew that when I had a child, I'd be overwhelmed, and it's true... I can't tell you how much my attitude has changed since we've got Frances. Holding my baby is the best drug in the world.

I liked anything that was a little bit weird, a little bit different. I always went for the psychotic, weird, 'dingey' bands.

I'm really interested in smells. I think I'd like to own a perfumery someday.

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.

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.

I remember feeling ashamed, for some reason. I was ashamed of my parents. I couldn't face some of my friends at school anymore, because I desperately wanted to have the classic, you know, typical family. Mother, father. I wanted that security, so I resented my parents for quite a few years because of that.

America may be the land of the free, but there are definitely more ignorant people there. Most of the population are semi-retarded.

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'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not.

Life is a waste of time and time is a waste of life, so let's all get wasted and have the time of our lives.

If I could get that girl [Courtney Love] to publish her poetry, the world would change.

I'm not well-read, but when I read, I read well.

If it was up to me, I'd get more oil tanker drivers drunk. I don't value music much. I like the Beatles, but I hate Paul McCartney. I like Led Zeppelin, but I hate Robert Plant. I like the Who, but I hate Roger Daltrey.

If I wouldn't have found Courtney, I probably would have carried on with a bisexual lifestyle.
