 Art is making something out of nothing and selling it. |
| No change in musical style will survive unless it is accompanied by a change in clothing style. Rock is to dress up to. |
| Most rock journalism is people who can't write, interviewing people who can't talk, for people who can't read. |
| Music, in performance, is a type of sculpture. The air in the performance is sculpted into something. |
| Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe. |
| A composer is a guy who goes around forcing his will on unsuspecting air molecules, often with the assistance of unsuspecting musicians. |
| There are more love songs than anything else. If songs could make you do something we'd all love one another. |
| The United States is a nation of laws: badly written and randomly enforced. |
| I searched for years I found no love. I'm sure that love will never be a product of plasticity. |
| Without music to decorate it, time is just a bunch of boring production deadlines or dates by which bills must be paid. |
| Politics is the entertainment branch of industry. |
| Communism doesn't work because people like to own stuff. |
| There is more stupidity than hydrogen in the universe, and it has a longer shelf life. |
| It isn't necessary to imagine the world ending in fire or ice. There are two other possibilities: one is paperwork, and the other is nostalgia. |
| All the good music has already been written by people with wigs and stuff. |

| I never set out to be weird. It was always other people who called me weird. |
| You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline. It helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer. |
| The computer can't tell you the emotional story. It can give you the exact mathematical design, but what's missing is the eyebrows. |
| Without deviation progress is not possible. |
