More quotes by Moby
An artist in 2014 who is thinking about album sales is either sadly deluded or has to make so many commercial compromises that it sort of takes the joy out of making music.
Moby
Musicians, actors, writers - we're all neurotic, odd people who've lucked into accidental careers. So I just don't like being around public figures with that sense of entitlement, it just seems unhealthy, and it strips so much potential for them to develop as a human being.
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
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
I love the fact that no one's ever bought my record because they were enamoured of the way I look. Maybe one person. There must be someone out there with compromised taste.
Moby
I've been friends with madonna for ever. In fact she was at my 3rd solo performance in 1990, and there were only 10 people in the audience.
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
When someone comes to me and says the music I've made has affected them emotionally, that's the most gratifying part of my job.
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
There is nothing terribly wrong with my face, even if some of its parts aren't very inspiring.
Moby
This whole world is run by brutes for the common and the stupid.
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
The idea of feeling old is much more the worry of a slightly younger person. When you are getting old, that becomes - psssh - completely secondary to the absolute understanding of how short your life is.
Moby
New York has inspired more remarkable music than any other city I can think of.
Moby
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.
Moby
I've made records that everyone has hated and I've loved, and made records that everyone has loved and I've deemed, at best, mediocre.
Moby
The truth is that genetics has robbed me of hair. But it's not interesting to blame genetics.
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
If I had to label myself now, I'd call myself a Taoist-Christian-agnostic quantum mechanic.
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.
