I didn't really like confessional poetry or things. They seemed sort of dated to me, or just corny.
Stephen Malkmus
Image
It's easy to be negatively funny about personalities in the media. It's just kind of a cheap laugh.
Stephen Malkmus
Image
I think most musicians know if they make the same record twice, even if they say they don't.
Stephen Malkmus
Image
I'm not sure if you can blame everything on the American way of life, but the United States are big. So, if you have a lot of people there, the percentage of stupid people is bound to be higher.
Stephen Malkmus
Image
When a band means a lot to you, you build the fantasy more than the reality. Always.
Stephen Malkmus
Image
It's just a compulsion to create something new and stay busy. I don't know how to do anything else. It was never exactly right. Those records came out in spite of their flaws. And because of their flaws they were good.
Stephen Malkmus
Image
I'm more into describing a scenario and I move around in that scenario.

What I love about music, when you can look at something and be like, Wow, what's this all about? You can't really picture what these people look like - is it one guy, or a band making music in a garage?

Image
We're probably a couple of freaks who've created their own little universe, are living in our own little world and that's the only place where we can survive.

Image
It's sort of irritating now - people always ask me, You're a dad, and how's fatherhood? If Bob Dylan or Neil Young had a kid, it didn't seem like it made them a different person. It didn't make you old right away.

Obviously songs and musicians mean a lot to people.
Stephen Malkmus
Image
Most people want to be seen or heard. You want to shine. That's my way of shining.
Stephen Malkmus
Image
I'm better when I'm an autodidact and things just come. Or you're just blessed. I'm not bragging or anything, it just comes to you.
Stephen Malkmus
Image
I've been getting plenty off my chest. Sometimes I get too much off my chest and I regret it.

Image
Family is the best. I can honestly say, it's a gift that is beyond making art. I didn't know that when I got into it.

Image
If you'd rather learn how to ride a horse or something, I would say do that. That'll keep you out of trouble. You would think a band would get you in trouble, but I think it's the opposite.

The word down, is very musical. It just always comes.

The narrative songs were well-written, like an article in The New Yorker. They're nice and pat. They're more like I'm just showing I can do that when I write a song like that. It's not my true calling.

I did some writing. I was just taking the kids to school. I did a couple things and we did some tours. It was a lot of downtime.

A good voice isn't so important. It's more important to sound really unique.
