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.

More quotes by Thom Yorke
I agree with whoever said Spice Girls are soft port. They're the antichrist.
Thom Yorke
In America, there seems to be more focus on the idea that it's important to do things differently. In Britain, it's not an issue.
Thom Yorke
I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo. What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here.
Thom Yorke
I jumped in the river, what did I see? Black-eyed angels swam with me A moon full of stars and astral cars And all the figures I used to see All my lovers were there with me All my past and futures And we all went to heaven in a little row boat There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt.
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
It's impossible being me, I radiate a glow that makes others turn and grimace in horror as if staring into the sun.
Thom Yorke
I don't know why people called me Tom. My name is THUMB.
Thom Yorke
You can't make an egg without frying an egg
Thom Yorke
I think what makes people ill a lot of the time is the belief that your thoughts are concrete and that you're responsible for your thoughts. Whereas actually - the way I see it - your thoughts are what the wind blows through your mind.
Thom Yorke
Coming from Britain, I was terrified of meeting all these other artists, because artists over there tend to fight with each other a lot, the premise being that there's not enough room for everybody.
Thom Yorke
I'd go onstage doing this thing, trying to fill this arena that I can't fill because I don't understand what this is. It's like you're given a job that's beyond you. And it's taken me years to realize what works in those big situations.
Thom Yorke
And true love waits In haunted attics And true love lives On lollipops and crisps
Thom Yorke
Is Thom Yorke there? Oh he is? Well then how the can I be Thom Yorke, talking to you, right here, on the phone.
Thom Yorke
I hate to sound self absorbed, but I'm just going to cast out this pearl of wisdom, if I could give the whole world cancer and kill them and be the last man on earth it would be a sign that god loves me especially.
Thom Yorke
Hunting Bears is a complex song. A bear, as you know is another term for a chubby chaser. The guitar line is actually the sound of a fat man's thighs rubbing together as he approaches another lardy male for a night of sexual deviance.
Thom Yorke
I am the greatest thing to happen to black music.
Thom Yorke
The hardest part about being in radiohead is being inside a giant head that is a radio. Ha ha, little english humour there, or is it a hammer?
Thom Yorke
Rock music is, is a necessary evil, like beating my children with penny loafers
Thom Yorke
I feel like as musicians we need to fight the Spotify thing. I feel that in some ways what's happening in the mainstream is the last gasp of the old industry. Once that does finally die, which it will, something else will happen.
Thom Yorke
Sonic the hedgehog is a beautiful statement on capitalism. You spend your whole life collecting yellow rings and then hit one spike and lose them all. And there is a fat man who wants to kill you.
