More quotes by Moby
I’ve been making electronic music for twenty some odd years but, because I grew up playing in punk rock bands, when I started touring, I thought in order to be a viable touring musician I had to do it with a band. I would DJ or tour with a full rock band.
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
These new metal bands are going out, getting drunk and going to strip clubs, and they'll be doing the same in thirty years. There isn't even an interesting self-destructive quality to it . . . it's just dumb.
Moby
I'm definitely a fan of public humiliation.
Moby
The way I work on music is that I go into my studio, and I start playing music, and I see what happens, and... I never think about it.
Moby
When I was nine years old, I started playing guitar, and I took classical guitar lessons and studied music theory. And played jazz for a while. And then when I was around fourteen years old, I discovered punk rock. And so I then tried to unlearn everything I had learned in classical music and jazz so I could play in punk rock bands.
Moby
I'm like a monk with a taste for hookers.
Moby
I realized the universe is 15 billion years old and unspeakably complicated. I still love the teachings of Christ, but I also believe that the human condition prevents us from having any true objective knowledge and understanding of the universe.
Moby
When famous people are nice to me, it feels good, so I'm happy to hang out with them. It's better than being at home, depressed, reading 'The Hobbit.'
Moby
If there is true evil in the world - it is Republican conservatives.
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
When I was growing up, all I wanted to do was fit in, but if you're perpetually an outsider, it gives you a perspective that might have a little more objectivity than people who really feel connected to their social environment in which they grow up.
Moby
I feel like once the song is done, you put it out there and if people want to do bizarre remixes, if people want to make strange videos, great. You know, like chaos theory applied to the music business.
Moby
When public figures think they can open a business even though they've got no business experience, it's a bad idea.
Moby
My uncle is from Argentina, so I grew up hearing Spanish. My Spanish isn't very good, but my pronunciation isn't terrible.
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
I may be a lifelong 'downtowner,' but Central Park really is the most amazing and the most beautiful part of New York City.
Moby
My goal with everything that I do is to present things in a way that I would want to see if I was in the audience or buying the record.
Moby
The good thing about not being drop-dead gorgeous is that as time passes, I don't have much to worry about. I have friends who are actors and every day they look in the mirror with trepidation.
Moby
Traffic terrifies me.
Moby
