You can sit down with Reason or Ableton and literally in a couple of hours make a very good-sounding record. But then a lot of people become contented with that, rather than pushing themselves to making something that sounds great.

More quotes by Moby
Why can't a democrat get fired up about protecting the environment and enacting gun control legislation just as right wing republicans get fired up about making sure that children have access to assault weapons and banning 'the Catcher in the Rye' and 'Harry Potter'?
Moby
The main thing that excites me and makes me want to get out of bed is the thought of being able to go into my studio to work on music.
Moby
In a way I almost feel like the election of Donald Trump has inspired Democrats and progressives and punk rockers in a way that hasn't been seen since Vietnam.
Moby
I love nyc. It's the city of my birth and probably the most amazing city on the planet.
Moby
For me my biggest inspiration is trying to make music that effects me as much as the music made by my heroes.
Moby
Dogs have boundless enthusiasm but no sense of shame. I should have a dog as a life coach.
Moby
I honestly haven't thought much about what to play and where, perhaps i should...it seems like most musicians are better at that than I am.
Moby
The good thing about not being drop-dead gorgeous is that as time passes, I don't have much to worry about. I have friends who are actors and every day they look in the mirror with trepidation.
Moby
I saw people around me who were falling deeper and deeper into alcoholism and substance abuse. It's seductive because alcohol is amazing and drugs are amazing, they work so well.
Moby
I've been an animal rights activist and a vegan for 28 years. The entire time, I've asked myself: How do I best advance an animal rights agenda?
Moby
I will be very sad when global warming and toxins kill off all the toads and frogs and salamanders. Here's hoping we, as humans, figure out a way to be less stupid.
Moby
This whole world is run by brutes for the common and the stupid.
Moby
I love that vinyl is actually growing in popularity, and that there are so many great record stores.
Moby
When I was growing up, all I wanted to do was fit in, but if you're perpetually an outsider, it gives you a perspective that might have a little more objectivity than people who really feel connected to their social environment in which they grow up.
Moby
For me to speak out against the war in Iraq, you know - most of my fans are lefties anyway, so I don't really get much flack for it.
Moby
Whether the Virgin Mary existed, I don't know. But the human need for her to appear in tortilla, that's what inspires my interest.
Moby
When you're signed to a big label you're always in the position of convincing them, especially now because labels are barely keeping the lights on, so getting them to spend a little bit of money is really hard.
Moby
When famous people are nice to me, it feels good, so I'm happy to hang out with them. It's better than being at home, depressed, reading 'The Hobbit.'
Moby
It's the age old thing: If you want to get elected, blame immigrants. It worked in the 20th century and it works now, and it's heart-breaking to see people make the same mistakes. They're looking at a complicated world, but they just keep blaming immigrants, and it's really disturbing that people haven't got past that.
Moby
My interest in gospel music and liturgical art and Biblically-inspired literature has nothing to do with organised religion and everything to do with human beings trying to figure out their place on this planet.
