I wish I did believe in God. It would be a great relief to think, 'God'll take care of it. God'll put gas in the car tomorrow'.
Wayne Coyne
Being around people who are happy and people who are creative, that's what you do if you're lucky in your life.

As you get older, you accept that there are some tunnels that don't have any light in them, but you go down them anyway.
Wayne Coyne
I would say anybody who's willing to listen to Dark Side of the Moon and watch The Wizard of Oz is already a very sensitive, creative person.

You want to be influenced by the world because it has so many cool things about it, but it also has a bunch of bad things about it.
Wayne Coyne
Most artists I run into aren't that thrilled with what they do anyway. They are glad to have different versions out there to see which one the audience likes the best.

A lot of times I'll doodle on something while I'm doing interviews, because sometimes I'm on the phone for three or four hours and I want to get something going. I'll just start from a scribble, or something that someone else already put on the page.
Wayne Coyne
Occasionally there are people who are not like me, and I forget that they're more introverted or shy, or just don't want to make a decision so quickly.

I want to be able to shoot laser beams out of my hands at people. That's the kind of stuff that you think all bands should do, but they don't, and I can't understand why most bands don't want to do it.

Music is amazing. There's some metaphysical comfort where it allows you to be isolated and alone while telling you that you are not alone... truly, the only cure for sadness is to share it with someone else.
Wayne Coyne
I want to know what you're thinking, you want to know what I'm thinking. But we're alone. In our own minds. We're trapped in this sort of isolation.
Wayne Coyne
Music has the power to transcend your physical being and take you up. Because music has a metaphysical quality it really makes your life beautiful.
Wayne Coyne
You want the world to be what you want it to be, and sometimes the world doesn't want that.
Wayne Coyne
It is comforting to know that there is at least one place where we can go and be confident that we will find an audience thirsting to find new music. Paste Magazine is that place. It's loss would create a very large black hole.
Wayne Coyne
Sometimes you just have to say, “...I don't know what we are doing, let's just go and see what happens.” You have to embrace the experience itself, so that things you didn't intend to happen can make your work more authentic. And you have to hope that it works.
Wayne Coyne
Your life, unfortunately - and I mean this - your life is built on when love dies. There's a lot of love in your life that will simply die. And you wish that you died with it, you know? But you don't. And you go, oh, well, here I am.
Wayne Coyne
We love playing music but were too weird to play music.

You can't really imagine every moment of a movie in the same way that you wouldn't expect a novelist to envision every sentence of his 800-page novel.
Wayne Coyne
There's a cave, we go inside of ourselves because we want to know more, and we turn this one corner and we go, Oh my god - I didn't know that was in here. We can never go back to the way we were. It's like a horrible car accident - you're never the same after that. It's something that you'll think about every day for the rest of your life.
