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.

More quotes by Wayne Coyne
I think that most of the people I'm dealing with, they're a lot like me. So I'm not pushing people that don't want to do something most of the people have a billion things going on, and they love it.
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.
Wayne Coyne
Love is larger than life.
Wayne Coyne
I always knew, since I'm the one making the movie, if I didn't like it, I'd just simply build another set and do it again. I was the one doing it all, so I never really worried about if I didn't like it. I just thought, Well, if I didn't like it, I'll just do it again! Who cares?
Wayne Coyne
I think that's what centers me the most - all my people, all my animals.
Wayne Coyne
I think the more music becomes something you could simply download and have on your iPod, I think to a lot of people that is plenty, but to some people, they still want these artifacts that are touchable, and you can smell them, and look at them, and hold them and just have other dimensions of experience with this music.
Wayne Coyne
You want the world to be what you want it to be, and sometimes the world doesn't want that.
Wayne Coyne
I embrace the idea that I'm an entertainer.
Wayne Coyne
I remember when my father was dying, I remember listening to Bjork, and listening to John Coltrane, and these things, and I don't know why but music has the power to transcend your physical being and take you up just a little bit.
Wayne Coyne
I think I'm really lucky that the things I'm able to love - people, animals - it's like the more you put yourself into it, the more you get out of it.
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
Love is not a magic gravity that keeps everything up.
Wayne Coyne
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
We hear so many records these days that are done with click tracks, as opposed to a drummer.
Wayne Coyne
We don't ever want to shut down and say, I'm afraid to go that far down the road because there's going to be pain. There'll be beauty, too, and if you stop here, you stop all that.
Wayne Coyne
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.
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.
Wayne Coyne
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.
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
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.
