More quotes by Kurt Cobain
To be positive at all times is to ignore all that is important, sacred or valuable. To be negative at all times is to be threatened by ridiculousness and instant discredibility.
Kurt Cobain
I've never considered musical equipment very sacred.
Kurt Cobain
We're just musically and rhythmically retarded. We play so hard that we can't tune our guitars fast enough. People can relate to that.
Kurt Cobain
Thank you for the tragedy. I need it for my art.
Kurt Cobain
My lyrics are a big pile of contradictions.
Kurt Cobain
We can plant a house, we can build a tree.
Kurt Cobain
My mother always tried to keep a little bit of British culture in our family. We'd drink tea all the time!
Kurt Cobain
I hate myself, and I want to die
Kurt Cobain
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.
Kurt Cobain
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'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not.
Kurt Cobain
Maybe we can change some kid's life & stop him from becoming a welder or a sleazy lawyer.
Kurt Cobain
I don't need to be inspired any longer, just supported.
Kurt Cobain
If I could get that girl [Courtney Love] to publish her poetry, the world would change.
Kurt Cobain
If chasing cool is important to you, you're an idiot!
Kurt Cobain
I like the comfort in knowing that women are the only future in rock and roll.
Kurt Cobain
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.
Kurt Cobain
Humans are stupid. I'm ashamed to be human.
Kurt Cobain
I didn't know how to deal with success. If there was a Rock Star 101, I would have liked to take it. It might have helped me.
Kurt Cobain
I like guitars in the Fender style because they have skinny necks.
Kurt Cobain
