I think the most "passionate" I get about actual humans are the ones I want to kill.

I have a house, I try to spend as little time in it as possible. Not always easy on the mind and body, but it's how I got myself to 80-plus countries. This kind of routine forces one to reinvent and improvise. The older I get, the more important this is to me.

I urge you to read the Occupy Manifesto, written by the New York City General Assembly. It is unavoidably clear. This is not directionless action. If it were, the media would have moved on.

Human beings should not be reduced to a state to where they almost get into a fight over a small bar of soap.

The tasks I set out for myself are what I do to beat the perfect pointlessness of life.

I have always maintained that Iggy Pop is the Heavyweight Champion of Rock & Roll.

Here you can be a billionaire, like Mark Zuckerberg rich, but you are going to die and you are here for a while and ultimately all of your stuff is kind of like a rental.
