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 wish there had been a music business 101 course I could have taken.

Image
My mother encouraged me to be artistic. It was written in a contract at an early age that I would be an artist.
Kurt Cobain
Image
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.
Kurt Cobain

If chasing cool is important to you, you're an idiot!
Kurt Cobain
Image
Humans are stupid. I'm ashamed to be human.
Kurt Cobain

If I went to jail, at least I wouldn't have to sign autographs.

I always wanted to experience the street life because my teenage life in Aberdeen was so boring. But I was never really independent enough to do it. I applied for food stamps, lived under the bridge, and built a fort at the cedar mill.

My father is incapable of showing much affection, or even of carrying on a conversation. I didn't want to have a relationship with him just because he's my blood relative. It would bore me.

I have to admit I've found myself doing the same things that a lot of other rock stars do or are forced to do. Which is not being able to respond to mail, not being able to keep up on current music, and I'm pretty much locked away a lot. The outside world is pretty foreign to me.

There are some pop songs I hate but I can't get them out of my head. Our songs also have the standard pop format: Verse, chorus, verse, chorus, solo, bad solo. All in all, I think we sound like The Knack and the Bay City Rollers being molested by Black Flag and Black Sabbath.

Out of all the guitars in the whole world, the Fender Mustang is my favorite. They're cheap and totally inefficient, and they sound like crap and are very small.

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

I had a really good childhood up until I was nine years old. Then a classic case of divorce really affected me and I moved back and forth between relatives all the time. And I just became extremely depressed and withdrawn.

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

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

And I swear that I don't have a gun...no I don't have a gun
