sick graves traveler
Even I, as sick as I am, I would never be you. Even I, sick and depraved, a traveler to the grave, I would never be you.
reform vegetarian testicles
I would rather eat my own testicles than reform The Smiths, and that's saying something for a vegetarian.
passion simple thinking
I think perhaps I touch on a different passion in people. It’s not simple the passion of rock ‘n’ roll rebellion - it’s more romantic than sexual.
memorable house noel
They are very tame to me. God bless Noel, I'm sure he'll always have a spot on 'Bob's Full House', but I search for something with more bite and rage.

The Cure: A new dimension of the word 'crap'.
