Music, I think, is best when it honestly explores personal demons, and it stirs around in the silt of the psyche to find out what's really there.

The most powerful music is music with purpose.
Tom Morello
The skin you're in makes choices for you...
Tom Morello
When I am most successful as a guitar player is when I'm able to just sort of lose myself. You stop thinking about technique or anything like that and just trying to evoke the emotion of that song brings, which is a very strong emotion for me.
Tom Morello
Trump's ignorance in environmental science is a threat to the entire planet.
Tom Morello
I myself am a very, very peaceful person. Throughout our history, from our own American revolution to the resistance against apartheid in South Africa, to labor strikes in the US, people have resorted to violence to achieve a more progressive society, from time to time.
Tom Morello
Always question the authority.
Tom Morello
The problem is not cop killers...it's killer cops.
Tom Morello
What is poverty, if not violence. Like, the number of people who die every year from starvation and from hunger and poverty is in the tens of millions.
Tom Morello
We have power not just with our voices, but we have economic power in what we do for a living, too.

For the millennium [New Year's Eve], you really have a choice to make. You either have to be naked with your head on fire and a shotgun in Bali or else you have to spend time with friends or family around the fireplace. And I'm choosing option B

There are literally billions of people on the planet who live in an unimaginable poverty that's not in any way different from the plight of the people in Orchid. And you can't have the splendor of Rodeo Drive without the sweatshops of Indonesia those two things go hand in hand.
Tom Morello
Of course, music is an art form, and it's not all that competitive. But we don't ever intend to be the second-best band on a stage at any show.
Tom Morello
I'd say that one area where my political views have remained unchanged is that, I am opposed to the government spying on everybody.
Tom Morello
Amazingly talented singer who sang like an angry angel
Tom Morello
Well, I don't care for Paul Ryan's sound or his lyrics. He can like whatever bands he wants, but his guiding vision of shifting revenue more radically to the one percent is antithetical to the message of Rage.
Tom Morello
If Trump is going to govern in a fascist way, then we need to make America ungovernable.
Tom Morello
I don't want to leave this mess around my children to clean up. I want to swing absolutely as hard as I can to straighten things out before they get to the age where it starts hurting them.
Tom Morello
You can kiss my Kiss-loving ass because Kiss was never a critic's band. It was a people's band.
Tom Morello
I have another name for what they're terming whistleblowers, and that's righteous heroes. From Bradley Manning to Snowden. They're people of conscience who are unwilling to turn a blind eye to the crimes of our government. And thank goodness for them.
Tom Morello
I find it ironic that now water is more expensive than music. On the one hand, record companies can't go crying when they've gouged consumers for decades, charging exorbitant prices for CDs that cost 29 cents to make. On the other hand, when music is free, musicians starve.
