buying india leather obviously stop until using
Obviously it's not just the Gap. But until they stop using leather from India and China, we should stop buying it.
freedom pray walk yours
I pray that their walk to freedom will not be as long as yours was.
air common filled healthy pay people police protest scene streets
In France, it's a very healthy protest scene and very common for people to take to the streets to air their grievances. We went to a police station, we filled out a form, we'll pay a fine. That's it.
bring deserve hope muslims
We (expletive) deserve to get bombed. Bring it on, I hope the Muslims win!
racism isms matter
What characterized the whole punk scene for me in 1977 was there was no racism or sexism. It was an anarchy of -isms, and a matter of abolishing it all.
dark rocks secret
I preferred rock when it was in the dark, when it was a secret between me and the audience, when it wasn't mainstream.
jealousy lust want
In my experience lust only ever leads to misery. All that suspicion and jealousy and anguish it unleashes. I don't want those things in my life.
effectiveness goal way
The only person stopping you from doing something is yourself, and looking for excuses all the time just gets in the way of obtaining your own goals. It's like the writer who keeps getting up and straightening the pictures in the room.
feminist suits bedtime
The so-called feminist writers were disgusted with me. I did my thing, and so I guess by feminist standards I'm a feminist. That suits me fine.
travel crazy too-much
Being on tour sends me crazy, I drink too much and out comes the John Mcenroe in me.
baseball children responsibility
All these fifty-year-old guys wearing baseball caps and shorts and acting like children. It winds me up. Men don't have to take responsibility anymore. Most of the guys I know would punch me on the nose for saying this, but maybe we do have to bring back conscription.
jobs cutting animal
Don't get a job in an abattoir. Don't be a butcher. The idea that people have to do these jobs for a livelihood is ridiculous. They can get other jobs. Shoplift, man. Better to be a prostitute than cut an animal's head off for a living.
done records want
Whatever I'm already doing becomes enhanced when I smoke pot. It can also be demotivating, because if I'm not doing anything and I smoke a joint, it enhances just sitting in a chair. Then I don't even want to get up to change a record. That might not be a bad thing, but you have to get things done once in a while.
community patriotism
I have no sense of patriotism, but I do have a sense of community.
