Lou Reed
The only thing constantly changing is change, and change is always changing for the worse.
Lou Reed
I've found that from my point of view, the Chen style contained many things that I knew on a fairly superficial level from Eagle Claw, and that had Chen elements of what seemed to me the soft in Eagle Claw.
Lou Reed
I'm still not sure I didn't die
Lou Reed
I tried to give up drugs by drinking.
Lou Reed
I don't think anybody is anybody else's moral compass.
Lou Reed
You do what you love, or you get arrested.
