I don't understand anything technical about music at all. I don't understand any of it, why you can't put these sounds together with those sounds. I only know what sounds good.

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

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 And I just became extremely depressed and withdrawn.

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.

I like the comfort in knowing that women are the only future in rock and roll.

Alternative music is no longer alternative once it’s in the mainstream.
Kurt Cobain
Image
My songs have always been frustrating themes, relationships that I've had. And now that I'm in love, I expect it to be really happy, or at least there won't be half as much anger as there was.

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

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