I stopped caring so much about what people might think if I sung about love and humanity.
Wayne Coyne
Image
Maybe there's some unquenchable question that I keep asking the universe that I can't get an answer to.

We wish that we could take magic drugs, play around all day, read, and do nothing strenuous, and be the smartest, happiest people in the world. The truth is, it's all about sweat.

Even though I don't have any kids of my own, I love this idea of family and taking care of things.

We want, or wanted, to believe that without love we would disappear, that love, somehow, would save us that, yeah, if we have love, give love and know love, we are truly alive and if there is no love, there would be no life. The Terror is, we know now, that even without love, life goes on... we just go on there is no mercy killing.

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.

All the great things that I get to be curious about, see, and experience because I'm sensitive to the world, it also opens up these areas where there's a lot of pain and suffering. You're just aware, aware, aware.

I want people to be ecstatic but to cry at the same time.

Love is not a magic gravity that keeps everything up.

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.

The 'cool' record store. It is where you can talk to people who are like you. They look like you, think like you and, most tellingly like the same music as you - the only comparable experience these days would probably be an art museum - an actual place where you can stand and simply be surrounded by your heroes.

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
Image
We love playing music but were too weird to play music.
Wayne Coyne
Image
I'm pouring my guts out so they can feel like your guts at the same time.

We hear so many records these days that are done with click tracks, as opposed to a drummer.

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.

Love is larger than life.
Wayne Coyne

To try to please people is an endless chasing of one's own tail. That's not very satisfying, so we do what we like and that satisfies us. When it does work out, its a bonus, really.
