I was trying to convince myself I could learn to be gay - but no. That's one of my great regrets.

More quotes by Moby
When I tour I'm going to countries to play music for people. My presence in a country is not an endorsement or a condemnation of that country's policies. My presence in a country is an effort to connect with people through playing music.
Moby
I was never encouraged to believe anything. I was brought up in a profoundly agnostic or pantheistic community.
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
I don't know many artists who are happy with themselves all of the time.
Moby
I wasn't raised Catholic I just really like the image of a neutral and benign Mary floating around somewhere, being nice to people.
Moby
As music became more profitable in the 1990s, it seemed like it attracted a lot of people who were just interested in the financial aspect of it, which is depressing.
Moby
I made a record in 1996 called 'Animal Rights' that was a very difficult, very dark punk-rock record. Of all the records I've made, it's my favorite one. It's also the one that got the worst reviews and sold the worst.
Moby
I know, in my heart of hearts, I don't do things for money.
Moby
One of the reasons why fundamentalists are so aggressive in trying to promote fundamentalism is because deep down they know it's arbitrary. If you're comfortable with your belief you don't need to convince other people to agree with you.
Moby
I honestly just love being in my studio working on music. That's all the inspiration I need. And I don't write with an end result in mind, I just write for the simple love of writing.
Moby
My secret is being not terrible at a lot of things.
Moby
I think the word 'blog' is an ugly word. I just don't know why people can't use the word 'journal.'
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
My reason for becoming a vegetarian was simple: I loved (and love) animals
Moby
One of the main reasons I'm vegan is because I'm ethically lazy. My friends who eat meat or who eat eggs have to sometimes wrestle with the ethical consequences of their actions. By being vegan, I take the easy way out.
Moby
So man's insanity is heaven's sense, and wandering from all mortal reason, man comes at last to that celestial thought, which, to reason, is absurd and frantic and weal or woe, feels then uncompromised, indifferent as his God.
Moby
Over time, I started becoming more and more aware of the vastness and complexity of the universe, which led me away from any sort of conventional Christianity.
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
If you look at the history of popular music, the most successful musicians have started out being really marginal and esoteric. The Beatles and the Rolling Stones. Madonna. Prince. Bruce Springsteen. Fleetwood Mac. David Bowie. Public Enemy. Nirvana.
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.
