More quotes by Moby
When I went to university, I was a philosophy major, but because I'm not very bright I chose to study philosophy at a performing arts school, maybe because the philosophy program there wasn't too rigorous or challenging.
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
When you're signed to a big label you're always in the position of convincing them, especially now because labels are barely keeping the lights on, so getting them to spend a little bit of money is really hard.
Moby
I don't think of myself as a singer I usually end up singing when I can't find anyone better to sing, or when I'm too lazy to find someone better.
Moby
Shaving your head is acceptable. It's when you start wearing toupees and brushing your hair over that things go wrong.
Moby
I love lots of different types of music, but it's music that has this up-swelling of beauty and emotion that is most important to me.
Moby
We hope that as a species we're capable of dealing with environmental catastrophe before it actually does collectively kill most of us.
Moby
The young have to kill the old. The young, if they want to achieve their own platform, have to diminish the reputations of the ones that have gone before. That's how life works.
Moby
I don't know many artists who are happy with themselves all of the time.
Moby
My interest in gospel music and liturgical art and Biblically-inspired literature has nothing to do with organised religion and everything to do with human beings trying to figure out their place on this planet.
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'm not trying to look for pity or sympathy. I was just surprised that so many people in the world of entertainment seemed to be okay with misogyny and homophobia as long as they were profiting from it.
Moby
I truly don't judge other people's actions. But I think that factory farming is an abomination.
Moby
Let peace and beauty reign.
Moby
There are a lot of people in the animal rights movement who can be very passionate and aggressive, and I applaud people's passion, but when people are judgmental and aggressive, all you end up doing is getting other people to turn away in irritation. To change people's minds, you have to respect the people you're talking to.
Moby
There's an aesthetic theme, which is cities at two o'clock in the morning. Not cities packed with people going out to clubs and dancing but desolate, empty streets. It's off-putting but there's a strange comfort to it as well, that desolate urban environment.
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
In the past I've had public feuds with people, and I have really not benefited from any of them. The feud with Eminem did kind of torpedo my career in the United States, but it also introduced me to Middle America in a way I never could have conceived of.
Moby
One simple word: ugh. Is something still considered a conspiracy if it's played out right under our noses?
Moby
Dogs have boundless enthusiasm but no sense of shame. I should have a dog as a life coach.
Moby
