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?

More quotes by Moby
For some reason New York is the epicentre for people who hate me. Maybe this is another reason why I left New York but I get more hatred directed towards me there than any other place.
Moby
A great song is a great song, whether it's on vinyl or CD or cassette or reel to reel or mp3. Then again, that might be an overly optimistic view, but I do think that great music will transcend the medium in which it is delivered.
Moby
In some of the greatest recordings ever made, the performance is a part of the recording. Dylan's 'Rainy Day Women No. 12 and 35' is all about the esthetic of that performance. You can hear the room.
Moby
Once the pathological low self-esteem goes, that's when things go downhill.
Moby
My reason for becoming a vegetarian was simple: I loved (and love) animals
Moby
For me, New York still ranks as the most beautiful and the most interesting city in the world. It is also the most varied in terms of the things it has to offer.
Moby
Maybe it's a form of overcompensation, but whenever I've toured, I've always needed a huge performance component.
Moby
Luckily almost no one buys music anymore, so selling music doesn't really affect any of my professional decisions.
Moby
I truly don't judge other people's actions. But I think that factory farming is an abomination.
Moby
We hope that as a species we're capable of dealing with environmental catastrophe before it actually does collectively kill most of us.
Moby
I love nyc. It's the city of my birth and probably the most amazing city on the planet.
Moby
When I was in my twenties, I thought I was bulletproof.
Moby
I stopped drinking and realised New York still has a lot of charm, but it has become so bourgeois and affluent - and I can't really complain because I'm sort of bourgeois and affluent myself, but I like living in a place where artists and musicians and writers can actually pay the rent.
Moby
Traffic terrifies me.
Moby
When I do have time to work on music, I'm kind of selfish, and would rather work on my own stuff than someone else's.
Moby
My main interest is just to work with people who have beautiful, interesting, emotive voices I'm not too concerned whether someone is famous.
Moby
For better or worse, I'm interested in just about everything: every different type of music I can imagine. I can never see a reason to choose just one type of music at the exclusion of everything else. Different types of music are capable of being rewarding in different kinds of ways.
Moby
I'm definitely a fan of public humiliation.
Moby
Some of the songs I've made, I'm really disappointed in how I mixed them.
Moby
I'm offended by the is-ought fallacy, which has been used to justify slavery, women not being allowed to vote, children working in factories.
