More quotes by Moby
Traffic terrifies me.
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
There is a long and interesting tradition of really marginal left-field music that becomes commercially successful. And I will, for a brief minute, fit into that tradition.
Moby
Somehow, magically, I've become an electronic musician, and I have a recording studio that looks like the bridge of the Enterprise.
Moby
One of the problems with being relatively conscious and human, is that you want to help everybody.
Moby
I love it when celebrities fall apart.
Moby
A lot of people do talk about the demise of the album, but I still believe that if an artist tries hard to make a great album, people will buy it and listen to it as an album, rather than just a collection of random songs.
Moby
When public figures think they can open a business even though they've got no business experience, it's a bad idea.
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
If Nirvana had remained a small, underground punk rock band, Kurt Cobain would still be alive. And he'd probably be living in Seattle, getting kind of fat and balding, be relatively happy and producing records for other people.
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
It's sometimes too easy to point fingers when circumstances dramatically go awry, but as an addict, I'm ultimately responsible for my own decisions, no matter how benign or tragic the consequences.
Moby
By being vulnerable, either with yourself or in the presence of another person, that’s where all growth and ultimate well-being comes from.
Moby
When I say, 'I love Christ and love the teachings of Christ,' I mean that in the most simple and naive way. I'm not saying I'm right.
Moby
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.
Moby
I have no patience for anyone who thinks they've figured things out, no patience for people who think they're right at the expense of everyone else. The world is too connected and too complicated to conform to any of our rigid ideas of what it should be like.
Moby
One can only snort so many ants and have so much sex before one starts to long for the comfort and companionship of a good book.
Moby
Once the pathological low self-esteem goes, that's when things go downhill.
Moby
If one of my heroes comes to me and says, 'Do you want to work on something?' I just say, 'Yes.' I don't ask for details I don't expect to get paid anything. I just love working with my heroes.
Moby
I'm gonna have to start walking down the street and start hitting people in the head!
Moby
