If it was up to me, I'd get more oil tanker drivers drunk. I don't value music much. I like the Beatles, but I hate Paul McCartney. I like Led Zeppelin, but I hate Robert Plant. I like the Who, but I hate Roger Daltrey.

I like to feel prejudice towards people who are prejudice

I thought I would try to be gay for a while, but I'm just more sexually attracted to women. But I'm really glad that I found a few gay friends, because it totally saved me from becoming a monk or something.

I didn't know how to deal with success. If there was a Rock Star 101, I would have liked to take it. It might have helped me.

Thank you all from the pit of my burning, nauseous stomach for your letters and concern during the past years.

I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not.

I wasn’t thriving socially, so I stayed in my room and played guitar all the time, at the time, I thought I was inventing a new sound that would change the whole outlook of music. I’ve discovered in the last few years that it was just the Seattle Sub Pop sound.
