“I always had a repulsive sort of need to be something more than human.”

I’ve never responded well to entrenched negative thinking.

I’m just an individual who doesn’t feel that I need to have somebody qualify my work in any particular way. I’m working for me.

I could never, ever talk to my father. I really loved him, but we couldn’t talk about anything together. There was this really British thing that being even remotely emotional was absolutely verboten.

Tomorrow belongs to those who can hear it coming.

I have found myself deeply, deeply intrigued by the ska-punk scene. It’s such an expressive form of popular music, it’s so real, it’s got so much life: it’s the most vital music in the world.

I was studying Tibetan Buddhism when I was quite young, again influenced by Kerouac.

Make the best of every moment. We’re not evolving. We’re not going anywhere.

The media is either our salvation or our death.

I don’t make changes to confuse anyone. I’m just searching. That’s what causes me to change. I’m just searching for myself.

Heathenism is a state of mind. You can take it that I’m referring to one who does not see his world. He has no mental light. He destroys almost unwittingly. He cannot feel any Gods presence in his life. He is the 21st century man.

I’m drawn between the light and dark.

Rock has always been the devil’s music… I believe that rock & roll is dangerous… I feel that we’re only heralding something even darker than ourselves.

Speak in extremes, it’ll save you time.

There’s a starman waiting in the sky, he’d like to come and meet us, but he thinks he’d blow our minds.

Time may change me, but I can’t trace time.

For me a chameleon is something that disguises itself to look as much like its environment as possible. I always thought I did exactly the opposite of that.

Hungry men have no respect for the law, authority, or human life.

The greatest evil perpetrated is the evil committed by nobodies, that is, by human beings who refuse to be persons.

Why is love beyond all measure of other human possibilities so rich and such a sweet burden for the one who has been struck by it? Because we change ourselves into that which we love, and yet remain ourselves.

For peace to reign on Earth, humans must evolve into new beings who have learned to see the whole first.

The human being is not the lord of beings, but the shepherd of Being.

Heaven has given human beings three things to balance the odds of life: hope, sleep, and laughter.

No human life, not even the life of the hermit in nature’s wilderness, is possible without a world which directly or indirectly testifies to the presence of other human beings.

I know that everything essential and great originated from the fact that the human being had a homeland and was rooted in tradition.
