I like my friends because they make me feel normal, even though I'm not.
The last person to get across that town in under three hours was yelling "The British are coming! The British are coming!"
I'm a selfish, little pig of a man.
The people we elect aren't bipartisan. The American public is bipartisan.
It's amazing what I could've written in my life if I had realized that I should keep writing and not masturbating.
Earth Day was created because we were doing a lot of drugs, more drugs than you could ever f@*! imagine. And so we came up with Earth Day, so we'd have one day that would remind us what planet we were living on.
I'm always amazed when I hear people saying; That George Bush, he's a great leader. And I wonder, where can one find a drug that would make one so delusional?
The one thing I think we learned this year is that the Democrats and the Republicans are completely worthless.
MTV is to music as KFC is to chicken!
If somebody tries to tell me the earth was created in 7 days I take a fossil and say "FOSSIL". If he still won't shut up I throw it at him.
If you listen to a song and get an image in your head, and then you go home and watch mtv and the image they're showing is the same as the one in your head, kill yourself. You're better off coming back as a lobster.
I think inevitably over the course of my lifetime there's been an underestimation of the American people, and I believe they are really the ones that give me hope. There's so much of "they don't know this, and they don't know that," and they're always denigrating.
The Republicans are the party of bad ideas. The Democrats are the party of no ideas.
I love anything that gets me outside of my own head. I love music because it's really just - I tried to play piano as a kid. I was awful. It didn't help, and this is absolutely true, that my piano teacher had arthritis. And that's not a good way to learn.
