Lou Reed
I like mindless disco... they say the lyrics are stupid and repetitious. So what's wrong with that? So is lying in the sun. Not everything has to be serious.
Lou Reed
Well all tai chi has the martial aspect to it, a lot of people don't know, a lot of the teachers won't show it, or they do show it but you don't really learn it, what the application is.
Lou Reed
I think that everything happens for a reason, everything happens when it's going to happen.
Lou Reed
You can't ask me to explain the lyrics because I won't do it.
Lou Reed
I'm too old to do things by half
Lou Reed
I can't tell the difference between wrong and right, are you laughing at me?
