More quotes by Thom Yorke
My big problem with corporate structure is this bizarre sense of loyalty you're supposed to feel -- towards what is basically a virus. It grows or dies, like any virus. And you use it for your own selfish ends. - source
Thom Yorke
If I could be any famous person, I'd be John Wilkes Booth, because I'd love to shoot Abraham Lincoln in the face
Thom Yorke
I've been working hard on a new song, it's titled Frozen Piggy Pudding. It's about how the government is full of pigs who eat pudding all day. Oh look a frisbee, allo' govna.
Thom Yorke
I think the most important thing about music is the sense of escape.

Thom Yorke
I grew up under Thatcher. I grew up believing that I was fundamentally powerless. Then gradually over the years it occurred to me that this was actually a very convenient myth for the state.
Thom Yorke
The allegations of me being a pedophile are spurious, at best. However I will admit that taking my knickers off in the park and having an Easter Egg hunt with those apple-cheeked four year olds was in my best interest and not theirs
Thom Yorke
If I were to be any celebrity, I'd be Chris Martin. I've always wondered what it would be like to be jealous of Thom Yorke.
Thom Yorke
I'm baking stories, and singing cookies, oh the tonderous wimes!
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
They love me like I was a brother They protect me, listen to me They dug me my very own garden Gave me sunshine, made me happy Nice dream, nice dream Nice dream
Thom Yorke
People are born with certain faces, like my father was born with a face that people want to hit.
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
I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo. What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here.
