Quotes

Most of the time when I have met artists who have meant a lot to me, the experience has been well above expectation. People like Iggy, Lou Reed, Jerry Lee Lewis, Black Sabbath, Nick Cave, Hubert Selby Jr, Billy Gibbons, Al Pacino, John Lee Hooker, James Brown, Johnny Cash etc. have been really great to me. What strikes me is most of the time, the bigger the celeb/legend, the more polite and cool they are. It's the insecure ones who treat you like they're doing you a favor by shaking your hand. Henry Rollins
What I felt for you was a combination of respect and affection. There was a closeness I felt through intimate interaction. The affection part is all over with. All that remains is the respect. If I put my arms around you and told you that I missed you, I would be lying. You're alright with me and I wish you well. But you're not me and that makes you one of them and you can only get so close. Henry Rollins
Henry Rollins quote: "Scar tissue is stronger than regular tissue. Realize the..."
Scar tissue is stronger than regular tissue. Realize the strength, move on. Henry Rollins
Henry Rollins quote: "It is our destiny to be born beautiful into an ugly age."
It is our destiny to be born beautiful into an ugly age. Henry Rollins
Just understand that the end began long agoWe got here just in timeLookAll the squares in the sidewalks were already thereAll these strangers have more money than you doAll the good riffs have been takenAnd everyone is so scaredMurder is commonplaceI don't even flinch at the gunshots outside my windowI feel lonely without them Henry Rollins
When she comes. She pulls you close. She breathes in short bursts. Her eyes close. Her head tilts back. Her mouth opens slightly. Her thighs turn to steel, and then melt. She is perfect. And you feel like you are everything. Henry Rollins
Henry Rollins quote: "People are best on records and books because you can turn them..."
People are best on records and books because you can turn them off or put them back on the shelf. Henry Rollins
I think there will always be great new music and bands. As long as there's people around, there's going to be great music. I think there's bands like Wolf Eyes, Q & Not U, the Evens and many others that are doing great stuff. The music that doesn't please you, you just don't listen. No one makes me listen to Nickelback, so long may they wave. Henry Rollins
Henry Rollins quote: "Sometimes the truth hurts. And sometimes it feels real good."
Sometimes the truth hurts. And sometimes it feels real good. Henry Rollins
Henry Rollins quote: "Best not to mix the past with the present. The present paints..."
Best not to mix the past with the present. The present paints the past with gold. The past paints the present with lead. Henry Rollins
I am talking about ultimate deceit. I am talking about unparalleled treachery. Bottomless lies. Depths that are seen that are previously unimaginable. Darkness and shattering despair that could break bones. Paranoia and horror that could stop the heart cold. All inflicted on one's self by one's self. The soul turns schizophrenic and goes hopelessly insane. Henry Rollins
Henry Rollins quote: "I just travel the world with my backpack and my cameras and a..."
I just travel the world with my backpack and my cameras and a bunch of Clif bars. Henry Rollins
It hurts to let go. Sometimes it seems the harder you try to hold on to something or someone the more it wants to get away. You feel like some kind of criminal for having felt, for having wanted. For having wanted to be wanted. Henry Rollins
I don't mean to be arrogant and I really appreciate my fans but talking about what I am doing is not something I'm good at. I do what I do and that's it. I want to get back to my work and do more of it instead of talking about it. Henry Rollins
I get angry about stuff, I get very emotionally intense about stuff and that's how I get it out - with books, with the band, on my own onstage, but it's always kind of a wail. Henry Rollins
