More quotes by Moby
If I was a sex symbol, I would be getting laid a lot more than I am now.
Moby
It's much easier to have a diversified career as an electronic musician than it is as a drummer. Nothing against drummers. If you're a drummer, you just wait around for people to ask you to play drums. But if you have your own studio and can make music, you have the ability to approach music a lot differently.
Moby
I don't think of myself as a singer I usually end up singing when I can't find anyone better to sing, or when I'm too lazy to find someone better.
Moby
Sacha Baron Cohen is one of my heroes.
Moby
For me my biggest inspiration is trying to make music that effects me as much as the music made by my heroes.
Moby
I guess the most emotional part is when I have that moment when I end up writing something that I really, really love. So not only is there the emotional connection with the music that's being created, but there's also the magic of the fact that you're essentially creating something from nothing.
Moby
Call me a nerd if you like, but I do find it hard to leave home without my laptop and a good book.
Moby
New York has inspired more remarkable music than any other city I can think of.
Moby
My reason for becoming a vegetarian was simple: I loved (and love) animals
Moby
Oftentimes things that seem really difficult and traumatic in the short term seem a lot less difficult and traumatic in the long term.
Moby
People assume that somehow fame and wealth will keep mortality at bay.
Moby
Lord, I want to be up in my heart.
Moby
I feel like sometimes we have to be a little less inclusive and tolerant if other people's opinions could lead to the destruction of our species.
Moby
The progressive movement needs more crazy and amoral/immoral right-wing politicians and pundits like Tom DeLay and Newt Gingrich and Ann Coulter and Sean Hannity.
Moby
I love to be busy. I'm envious of people who are able to take their spare time and relax. All I like to do is work. Perhaps it's lingering Calvinist guilt?
Moby
I was never encouraged to believe anything. I was brought up in a profoundly agnostic or pantheistic community.
Moby
When playing big festivals, I tend to play big, over the top techno tracks, like hands in the air songs that make sense being played in front of 30,000 people. I steer away from subtlety in the interests of big bombastic dance music.
Moby
Over time, I started becoming more and more aware of the vastness and complexity of the universe, which led me away from any sort of conventional Christianity.
Moby
More often than not, whenever gossip has been written about me, the gossip is more interesting than the reality. I know some public figures hate gossip, but personally I like it because it makes my life sound more glamorous and interesting than it really is.
Moby
As long as the world continues to be strange and interesting, I still want to take pictures of it.
Moby
