good
I'm a good authoritarian figure; I don't know why. 'Can you be a cop?' Sure. 'Can you be a Marine?' Absolutely. Well, at least in a movie.
iggy maintained pop
I have always maintained that Iggy Pop is the Heavyweight Champion of Rock & Roll.
longer work
If I'm in L.A. for longer than 20 days, I'm looking for work, because I don't do vacations.
anyone closer dear feelings good hardly next painful smart strongly surprise tells themselves truth
It is no surprise to me that hardly anyone tells the truth about how they feel. The smart ones keep themselves to themselves for good reason. Why would you want to tell anyone anything that's dear to you? Even when you like them and want nothing more than to be closer than close to them? It's so painful to be next to someone you feel strongly about and know you can't say the things you want to.
amazing audiences bands extremely favorite front good met people
I think the U.K. is an amazing place and has been extremely good to me. Some of my favorite and most-listened-to bands are from England. I have met many good people there and have been in front of some of the most loyal audiences I have ever encountered.

Humans are pretty crafty but will fold quickly in severe cold.

Please tell your government and everyone in your office to go f*** themselves.
explore found glued music musical people themselves
I would hate to think that some people have found themselves in a musical cul-de-sac and have ceased to explore new music, or at least music that is new to them, because they are so glued to the past.
people travel
I think young people should travel and travel often to other countries... like I do.
burned talk
I was burned out on people, their talk and their bullshit.
aware saying suffered war
I think a lot of Americans have never been all that hungry. They've never had war on their shore, and they've never suffered the way other cultures have suffered. I'm not saying we should go suffer. Not at all. I'm saying we should be more aware of how other cultures exist.
answer asks insane interested matter offer run ship
Well, we run my ship differently. Any offer that comes in, I yay or nay it, no matter how insane it is. Like, if someone asks me if I'm interested in doing a porn film, the answer to that is going to be no, but it comes to me anyway. I'm responsible for making the call.
artwork pantomime record release ridiculous situation stuff video
Our record is all finished, ... It's mastered, and now I have to come up with artwork and a kiss-ass video for MTV. They never play our stuff anyway, so it's just a gesture. We'll pantomime through some ridiculous situation on film and the record will come out at the end of the year. It's going to be a release that no one will hear.
davis great jazz marriage miles music perfect postal stamp
Jazz music is as American as it gets, and so is the U.S. Postal Service. A Miles Davis stamp is a perfect marriage of two great American institutions.
