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
Sometimes the song title comes with the songs, other times you just sorta make something up afterwards.

I think it's probably a good thing to be considered stable, but with a capacity for madness.
Wayne Coyne
When I do yoga, it gets all sweaty, and the best thing for dried up hair isn't shampoo, it's sweat.
Wayne Coyne
You want the world to be what you want it to be, and sometimes the world doesn't want that.
Wayne Coyne
Love is the thing that you pursue because it's the thing that gives you all this life, or you believe that, anyway.
Wayne Coyne
I know that is absolutely true for people when they are young - you don't want to be alive if the things that you love in your life aren't there.

I think making movie is kind of like getting fat people to walk 20 miles. If you just do it 100 yards at a time, and nobody knows how far they are going, they can do it!I would include myself in those fat people! You do this little by little and you don't realize your potential, or you don't realize how really rich, and how far you can go.

We love it when we make mistakes that are better than something you could think up.

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.
Wayne Coyne
If you have a song that you think sounds like another song you should contact the publishing company and say I have a song here, let's cut a deal that lets everyone walk away feeling good.
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
I want people to be ecstatic but to cry at the same time.
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
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
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
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.
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
Your life is built on when love dies.
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.
