More quotes by Trent Reznor
There's something exciting and incredibly liberating for an artist to finish something Friday night and the world hears it Friday night instead of eight months later after marketing people and all those assholes get involved.
Trent Reznor
People are always saying, 'You're really nice, I thought you were going to be a complete asshole.' I'm getting pretty fed up with it. I just want to say to them, 'Well I could always piss on your head.'
Trent Reznor
The result of a public that has a very high consumption rate and turnover rate is people listen to more music but spend less time with individual bits of music. It's made me more likely to put things up quickly and treat it more like a magazine instead of a novel.
Trent Reznor
All I've undergone I will keep on.
Trent Reznor
I've become impossible, holding on to when everything seemed to matter more.
Trent Reznor
I think the whole aspect of social networking is vulgar and repulsive in a lot of ways.
Trent Reznor
I realized when I was 23 that I had never really tried anything.
Trent Reznor
Perfect little dream, The kind that hurts the most.
Trent Reznor
Though I still have no semblance of a life outside of Nine Inch Nails at the moment, I realize my goals have gone from getting a record deal or selling another record to being a better person, more well-rounded, having friends, having a relationship with somebody.
Trent Reznor
Any time I sit down and write music, the first part of that is always centering myself and thinking about who I currently am.
Trent Reznor
An integral part of any relationship is knowing that you could be killed in your sleep at any time.
Trent Reznor
Lots of people can have girlfriends. But I can throw around guitars onstage! That'll be my epitaph: 'He never had a girlfriend, but you should've seen him smash a Les Paul!'
Trent Reznor
God is dead, and no one cares! If there is a hell I'll see you there!
Trent Reznor
I'll name check Radiohead on this--they've done a pretty suave marketing plan on this new record. I think generally it's been a pretty cool thing, but what they've done is used those (sales) numbers in a way that they can spin them anyway they want cause you don't know what they are.
Trent Reznor
My moral standing is lying down.
Trent Reznor
I realized that I was afraid to really, really try something, 100%, because I had never reached true failure.
Trent Reznor
Try to find the right balance of keeping things exciting and treating your audience with respect, and also treating yourself as an artist with respect.
Trent Reznor
I have been wildly enthused about gaming since I was younger, and a career path I chose not to go down but did really consider was getting into programming and game design.
Trent Reznor
I believe there's a God but I'm not too sure of his relevance.
Trent Reznor
There's nothing like a stressful day.
