For some reason New York is the epicentre for people who hate me. Maybe this is another reason why I left New York but I get more hatred directed towards me there than any other place.

More quotes by Moby
I'm like a monk with a taste for hookers.
Moby
I spent so much of my life reading about spirituality and reading about neuroscience and trying different meditation practices. It's a really big part of my life. But it's sometimes hard to talk about. There are so many people in the world who don't live in Southern California and don't spend their time meditating.
Moby
I may be a lifelong 'downtowner,' but Central Park really is the most amazing and the most beautiful part of New York City.
Moby
I'd much rather go out and have music randomly presented to me by different DJs than stay home and discover it on my own.
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
Traffic terrifies me.
Moby
I've dated some very enthusiastic, attractive people and some very unenthusiastic, less attractive people. I see no correlation. But female friends of mine who have dated male public figures have found that is the case. They say male models are terrible in bed, because they feel like just showing up is all the effort they need to make.
Moby
I've never seen Friends I've never seen Seinfeld. I've heard people reference these things but I've never seen them.
Moby
How do I transform pain. I guess the number one way in which I do that is by working on music, but also it can be anything from just talking about it with other people or doing kickboxing or meditating or running around with dogs. Or just simply trying to sit with it and be mindful and be aware of it.
Moby
Sometimes I love the marriage of art and commerce I love Donna Summer I like the Rolling Stones.
Moby
So in 1987 I gave up all animal products and became a vegan. Simply so that I could eat and live in accordance with my beliefs that animals have their own lives, that they're entitled to their own lives and that contributing to animal suffering is something that I don't want to be a part of.
Moby
I stopped drinking and realised New York still has a lot of charm, but it has become so bourgeois and affluent - and I can't really complain because I'm sort of bourgeois and affluent myself, but I like living in a place where artists and musicians and writers can actually pay the rent.
Moby
The aggressive, energised, political, or even politicised, culturally aware music hasn't really existed [recently].
Moby
All I want to do with my life is try and make music that I really love, and so every day I try and work on music.
Moby
You have climate change and antibiotic resistance which are two of the biggest horses of the apocalypse, and they're basically breathing on our necks, and there's no political will or effort being expended to deal with them.
Moby
Whenever I've had success, I never learn from it. Success usually breeds a degree of hubris. When you fail, that's when you learn.
Moby
Music can always serve a role in people's lives when it's emotional and warm and inviting and beautiful.
Moby
If I was a sex symbol, I would be getting laid a lot more than I am now.
Moby
As time passes and the more advanced science becomes, the more interesting it becomes.
Moby
Once the pathological low self-esteem goes, that's when things go downhill.
