Rock journalism is people who can’t write, preparing stories based on interviews with people who can’t talk, in order to amuse people who can’t read.

I never set out to be weird. It was always other people who called me weird.

I’ve smoked ten marijuana cigarettes in my life. And they’ve given me a sore throat, a headache, and made me sleepy. I can’t understand why anyone would wanna use the stuff. It seems such an impractical pastime as you can get sent to jail for it.

Bad facts make bad law, and people who write bad laws are in my opinion more dangerous than songwriters who celebrate sexuality.
