The people of your century no longer require the service of composers. A composer is as useful to a person in a jogging suit as a dinsoaur turd in the middle of his runway.
So much gets lost in the translation. Even if you sat there listening to it with a microscope, there’s no way you’re gonna find out what it means.
Their stupidity does not amaze me, its when they’re smart that amazes me. It’s baffling whenever you find someone who’s smart – incredible. Soon you’ll have zoos for such things.
I think pop music has done more for oral intercourse than anything else that has ever happened, and vice versa.
People like to own things.
Don’t forget to vote.
Science is moving closer to weaponry, and Art is moving closer to commercialism. And never the twain shall meet.
Nobody gives a crap if we’re great musicians.
I want a horny little Jewish princess.
Nothing I’ve ever written has been motivated by trying to impact or influence anybody.
Nobody looks good bent over. Especially to pick up a check.
You can’t escape the puking sphinx.

In every language, the first word after “Mama!” that every kid learns to say is “Mine!” A system that doesn’t allow ownership, that doesn’t allow you to say “Mine!” when you grow up, has.
I think that if you use the so-called “strong words” you’ll get your point across faster and you can save a lot of beating around the bush. Why are people afraid of words? Sometimes the dumbest thing that gets said makes the point for you.
I write what I like to write. Those who like to listen to it, listen to it. And the ones who don’t, watch football and drink beer, jog, go to discos and so forth. I never claimed to be a man for all seasons.
Everything on this planet has something to do with music. Music functions in the realm of sculptured air.
I write the music I like. If other people like it, fine, they can go buy the albums. And if they don’t like it, there’s always Michael Jackson for them to listen to.
I don’t think there’s a problem. First of all, I don’t think music turns people into social liabilities. Because you hear a lyric.
