More quotes by Robyn Hitchcock
I thin many people's deviant behavior starts with dreams because dreams are so non-linear... as if there's an assumption that everything has to be linear or has to be plotted.
Robyn Hitchcock
Coming out's the hardest part, when you're Queen Elvis.
Robyn Hitchcock
Production is something Ive never come to terms with.
Robyn Hitchcock
Just as with a guitar, you can improvise a guitar solo, and they'd probably be similar each time, but they won't be exactly the same. With the word, it's probably a bit freer than that. I probably repeat myself more musically than I do verbally.
Robyn Hitchcock
Everyone has a right to change their consciousness, but ultimately the whole process is misleading.
Robyn Hitchcock
Using the word weird implies that there is a norm.
Robyn Hitchcock
Generally, I have an instinct for the noncommercial. And the unpopular.
Robyn Hitchcock
Love is the distance between reality and pain.
Robyn Hitchcock
I was always jealous of something getting more attention.
Robyn Hitchcock
We have a need to be religious, we need to worship, we need to build totems and shrines and icons, but nobody's sure in honor of what.
Robyn Hitchcock

Robyn Hitchcock
The band is like a vintage car. You take it out to go for a spin for a couple miles, but you wouldn't drive across the country.
Robyn Hitchcock
As soon as someone like me or David Lynch pops up everyone says hallelujah, how weird.
Robyn Hitchcock
I'm not really a good singer. But most people aren't, either.
Robyn Hitchcock
If I played just one song from every album, I would be onstage for two and a half hours. No one wants a show that long.
Robyn Hitchcock
I became a musician because that's really what I wanted to do when I was fifteen, but I had other abilities.
Robyn Hitchcock
I don't advocate Stalinist monolithic state structures any more than I advocate capitalistic monoliths. Unfortunately, human society tends to the monolithic, whether you go to the left or right, everybody in leathers, or everybody holding Chairman Mao's book, and if everybody goes to one end of the pitch, I always go to the other.
Robyn Hitchcock
If you do things out of time you're weird.
Robyn Hitchcock
You realize that the first Bryan Ferry album was pretty good although at the time it seemed a bit cheesy.
