I'm not in a position where I get to pick and choose roles. I usually go on auditions in long lines and embarrass myself in front of casting directors, and with a lump in my throat and my ears burning, I walk past reception and smirking actors as I go to the parking garage and go back on the highway.

I like boring black and white films with subtitles. I'm basically a drip.

From Henry Rollins

From Henry Rollins

I thought I was gonna be in the minimum-wage working world all my life.

From Henry Rollins

Seven-11 is the pulse-beat of America. I think that Bruce Springsteen should do a song about a 7-11 in Asbury Park, New Jersey, but write it in such a way that American's youth can identify and slurp along with the Boss. Hail the Boss! Hail 7-11!

From Henry Rollins

I'm disappointed by bands left and right, every day.

It's hard to get people at a record company to talk about music. They don't seem to want to talk about music, it's all marketing, and that's part of a record, you gotta get it out there, people have gotta hear it, but you could do it in a way that's not repulsive.

From Henry Rollins

With a book, there's no volume to turn up. You're very naked with a book.

From Henry Rollins

I get along with Australians really well. Everyone's usually really cool, and it's always a drag to leave.
