It seems so antithetical to the teachings of Christ to proclaim your faith in public. I mean, of course you're not supposed to hide your light under a bushel.

More quotes by Moby
For my most of my career I've been a falling-down drunk. Most of my interviews were done hungover, and for a while it was great.
Moby
I'm gonna have to start walking down the street and start hitting people in the head!
Moby
I'm perfectly happy for my videos to be on YouTube, whether I'm getting paid for them or not. If they're on YouTube, people will see them. If for some reason my videos get taken down from YouTube, well, I apologize. If it was up to me they'd all be up there and they'd all be free.
Moby
One problem with a lot of musicians is that they remove themselves in a studio and make a record and assume people are going to pay attention to it just because they've made it.
Moby
I'm sure most people have this experience: when you're young you drink, you do drugs, you stay up late, and there are no consequences.
Moby
As music became more profitable in the 1990s, it seemed like it attracted a lot of people who were just interested in the financial aspect of it, which is depressing.
Moby
For me my biggest inspiration is trying to make music that effects me as much as the music made by my heroes.
Moby
When I was growing up I was an atheist, then an agnostic, and then I had a good eight or ten years of being quite a serious Christian.
Moby
Success usually breeds a degree of hubris.
Moby
I believe that the role of limited government should be looking after the needs of veterans, the elderly, children and those institutions that improve the quality of life for struggling families - I don't believe that government should bend to serve the needs of subsidized multi-national corporations and entitled billionaires.
Moby
Music can always serve a role in people's lives when it's emotional and warm and inviting and beautiful.
Moby
When I was fifteen years old, the only distinction in music my friends and I made was [that] there's music made by people with short hair and music made by people with long hair.
Moby
In the past I've had public feuds with people, and I have really not benefited from any of them. The feud with Eminem did kind of torpedo my career in the United States, but it also introduced me to Middle America in a way I never could have conceived of.
Moby
When I was nine years old, I started playing guitar, and I took classical guitar lessons and studied music theory. And played jazz for a while. And then when I was around fourteen years old, I discovered punk rock. And so I then tried to unlearn everything I had learned in classical music and jazz so I could play in punk rock bands.
Moby
I don't think too much about how it might exist in the world in a commercial sense - I more just try and focus on making music that I love and trying to put it out into the world.
Moby
I feel that one of the reasons Brexit happened was that people stayed at home rather than going to the polls.
Moby
A few years ago, before I stopped drinking, I was feeling very sorry for myself and very drunk, and I Googled 'Moby Sucks'. In less than one second something like 20 million responses came up... yeah, there has been a lot of loathing directed towards me, and it used to drive me crazy.
Moby
One of the problems with being relatively conscious and human, is that you want to help everybody.
Moby
Once the pathological low self-esteem goes, that's when things go downhill.
Moby
I'm a terrible cook, so I usually eat out with friends.
Moby
