More quotes by Wayne Coyne
I think that's what centers me the most - all my people, all my animals.
Wayne Coyne
I think when people think of music from coming from Oklahoma, they think of Toby Keith or even Garth Brooks or even Woody Guthrie. People think, Why do we have to just be about the Bible and about football? Why can't we be about something like the Flaming Lips? And I salute them! I say, Well, that's great if you want that.
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
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
Your life is built on when love dies.
Wayne Coyne
Sometimes the song title comes with the songs, other times you just sorta make something up afterwards.
Wayne Coyne
We love playing music but were too weird to play music.
Wayne Coyne
I'll accept the pain and the suffering, because I know that in that there's a lot of beauty, too.
Wayne Coyne
We love it when we make mistakes that are better than something you could think up.
Wayne Coyne
I got very lucky that some of the things that I wanted to work did work. Not because I knew what I was doing, just through dumb luck, it just looked beautiful and sounded great and captured some magical mood. And you just have to hope that you get lucky when you do big things like making a movie, or something.
Wayne Coyne
Some people, they don't want to be that loved, they don't want to be that involved, they don't want to be part of your family. That's where the pain comes in. You want the world to be what you want it to be, and sometimes the world doesn't want that.
Wayne Coyne
I think it's probably a good thing to be considered stable, but with a capacity for madness.
Wayne Coyne
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
I think if you're lucky, you start to make music and it gets things out.
Wayne Coyne
Keeping perspective and being happy and being energetic and being creative - that's all tied to being healthy.
Wayne Coyne
I can see that if this was an album done 10 or 15 years ago we could see we were moving on to some place else.
Wayne Coyne
If SANTA CLAUS came down the chimney in a f**king jogging suit, you wouldn't even know it was him.
Wayne Coyne
We are all really alone. We're isolated in our own mind.
Wayne Coyne
Eating good things and being around people who are happy - 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. Being around people who are happy and people who are creative, that's what you do if you're lucky in your life.
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.
