More quotes by Moby
I truly believe, as an institution, most major labels should just die.
Moby
I have nothing against bombastic music, but when it comes to making albums, I'd prefer to make music that has a sort of vulnerable subtlety to it.
Moby
Oftentimes things that seem really difficult and traumatic in the short term seem a lot less difficult and traumatic in the long term.
Moby
People assume that somehow fame and wealth will keep mortality at bay.
Moby
The world is too big and too intricate to conform to our ideas of what it should be like... Just because we invent myths and theories to explain away the chaos we're still going to live in a world that's older and more complicated than we'll ever understand.
Moby
One of the problems with being relatively conscious and human, is that you want to help everybody.
Moby
Some of the songs I've made, I'm really disappointed in how I mixed them.
Moby
If you're inclined to dismiss L.A. as a place of unrelenting vapidity and generic 1980s architecture, then you're doing yourself and L.A. a huge disservice, and you're just not looking hard enough.
Moby
In 1991 I did an interview wherein I described myself as a 'teetotal Christian,' which was an exaggeration, although I do like tea and Christ.
Moby
When playing big festivals, I tend to play big, over the top techno tracks, like hands in the air songs that make sense being played in front of 30,000 people. I steer away from subtlety in the interests of big bombastic dance music.
Moby
I don't have children, but I imagine if parents are really pushed on the subject, they probably have favorite children.
Moby
I would drink and drink and then at 3 o'clock in the morning take anything that was put in front of me. And I'd sometimes be disappointed when conventional things were put in front of me. Like, I'd do a line of something and be disappointed to find it was just cocaine.
Moby
There's nothing in the actual Bible that limits a Christian in their appreciation of or interest in science. Anti-science is purely a function of ignorant fundamentalism.
Moby
I love the idea of making records that people can use, records that have a sense of utility.
Moby
I used to have a lot of envy for those musicians who have been universally loved.
Moby
And if we obey God, we must disobey ourselves, and it is in this disobeying ourselves, wherein the hardness of obeying God consists.
Moby
Sometimes I love the marriage of art and commerce I love Donna Summer I like the Rolling Stones.
Moby
Being a vegan is pretty easy these days, as almost every town and city has health food stores and vegetarian-friendly restaurants.
Moby
I don't sleep very well when I travel. And as a result, I tend to be awake in cities when everyone else is asleep.
Moby
I was never encouraged to believe anything. I was brought up in a profoundly agnostic or pantheistic community.
