More quotes by Trent Reznor
Left to my own devices, in the face of the climate change deniers, the madness and the greed-based decision-making, and propaganda that's been floating around, it's hard not to become pessimistic.
Trent Reznor
In my life, I was always floating around the edge of the dark side and saying what if take it a little bit too far, and who says you have to stop there, and whats behind the next door. Maybe you gain a wisdom from examining those things. But after a while, you get too far down in the quicksand.
Trent Reznor

Trent Reznor
I want to do something that matters.

Trent Reznor
I'm kind of forced to get out of what might feel more natural and comfortable.
Trent Reznor
Jumping through any hoop or taking advantage of any desperate situation that comes up just to sell a product is harmful. It is.
Trent Reznor
To me, rock music was never meant to be safe. I think there needs to be an element of intrigue, mystery, subversiveness. Your parents should hate it.
Trent Reznor
I hated school . . . I freaking hated it. The fact is that it revolved around something you didn't have access to. If you weren't on the football team, if you were in the band, you were a leper. When people say those were the best years of our lives, I want to scream.
Trent Reznor
I found that when I was putting my own music out, with my Twitter feed as the pure marketing budget, I'm preaching to the choir.
Trent Reznor
My doctor says, 'You've got one of the hardest ones to treat because it's not bipolar, it's not up and down, you're always just about a quart low in the mood department.
Trent Reznor
I think if there was an ISP tax of some sort, we can say to the consumer, 'All music is now available and able to be downloaded and put in your car and put in your iPod and put up your a-- if you want and it's $5 on your cable bill.'
Trent Reznor
Books are better than movies because you design the set the way you want it to look.
Trent Reznor
I believe there's a God but I'm not too sure of his relevance.
Trent Reznor
His perfect kingdom of killing, suffering and pain Demands devotion, atrocities done in his name.
Trent Reznor
I've become impossible, holding on to when everything seemed to matter more.
