Well actually I'm not a man but a carrot. The band was eating salads one day and a carrot fell off of the salad bar onto a microphone and the band realized that they had just discovered something brilliant. Me.

More quotes by Thom Yorke
If I weren't in Radiohead I'd be working at a grocery store, I'd be that creepy guy who lives in an efficiency apartment and collects salted, cured meats.
Thom Yorke
Treefingers is important, it's the point in which our protagonist crosses the icy tundra that is how to disappear completely to reach the island of Optimistic. But seriously, kill yourself.
Thom Yorke
I tell you what's really ridiculous--going into a bookstore and there's all these books about yourself. In a way, it feels like you're already dead.
Thom Yorke
Drying up in conversation You will be the one who cannot talk All your insides fall to pieces You just sit there wishing you could still make love.
Thom Yorke
I don't write lyrics, the lyrics write Thom Yorke
Thom Yorke
In pitch dark I go walking in your landscape Broken branches Trip me as I speak Just 'cause you feel it Doesn't mean it's there... We are accidents waiting Waiting to happen.

In November I'll be releasing my new solo record, entitled 'Box Of Bees'. There's no music, it's just a box full of live bees. The deluxe edition comes with more bees.

Performing is great, but you are exposed to all this extra stuff that you don't have to deal with when you stop. I'm getting used to it now, but it's kind of just the fallout. It's really weird. It's not a natural situation to be in. It sounds like moaning, because I know that's what I'm supposed to do, and I'm not moaning.
Thom Yorke
I bought a blimp just so I could get a bunch of wankers excited over nothing, what did you do with your weekend?
Thom Yorke
It's God's will that millions of people are gonna die this year because of some outmoded economic policies? No, it's not!
Thom Yorke
It annoys me how pretty my voice is...that sounds incredibly immodest, but it annoys me how polite it can sound when perhaps what I'm singing is deeply acidic.
Thom Yorke
The society, is, a dishwasher, where all the water, is, dead chipmunk blood. God I'm brilliant.
Thom Yorke
All of our saddest songs have somewhere in them at least a glimmer of resolve - Street Spirit has no resolve. It is the dark tunnel without the light at the end.
Thom Yorke
The video of 'Paranoid Android' has been censored by MTV. They took all nipples out of the cartoon, but they had no problem with the scene in which a man cuts off his own arms and legs.
Thom Yorke
So ultimately, it's idealistic to think that artists are able to step away from the power of the media and the way it controls things, and go on doing their own things.
Thom Yorke
Women's underwear section it's like Narnia's wardrobe for my erotic delights.
Thom Yorke
I will never run out of quotes. I am, after all, the Thom Yorke.
Thom Yorke
The problem is, I cannot meditate. That's the one thing I can't do. That's the thing that's driving me nuts. I have a house by the sea, and I can sit and listen to the sound of the sea and eventually... but I can't really do it.
Thom Yorke
The hardest part about being in Radiohead is listening to my own music.
