I can't judge any of you. I have no malice against you and no ribbons for you. But I think that it is high time that you all start looking at yourselves, and judging the lie that you live in.

I loved my mother, she's a good girl.

Getting up every day and going through this again and again is hard.

I was a beatnik in the '50s before the hippies came along.

I'm not of this generation.

You know, a long time ago being crazy meant something. Nowadays everybody's crazy.

Remorse for what? You people have done everything in the world to me. Doesn't that give me equal right?

These children that come at you with knives, they are your children. You taught them. I didn't teach them. I just tried to help them stand up.

Pain's not bad, it's good. It teaches you things. I understand that.

I will have you removed if you don't stop. I have a little system of my own.

I punched my mother out once.

I ain't got no magical powers and mystical trips and all that kind of crap. It's kind of silly.

If you're going to do something, do it well. And leave something witchy.

My father is the jailhouse. My father is your system... I am only what you made me. I am only a reflection of you.

I can't dislike you, but I will say this to you: you haven't got long before you are all going to kill yourselves, because you are all crazy. And you can project it back at me, but I am only what lives inside each and every one of you.

No sense makes sense.

How old am I? I'm as old as my mother told me. How's that?

From the world of darkness I did loose demons and devils in the power of scorpions to torment.

Just because you're convicted in a court room doesn't mean you're guilty of something.

I never thought I was normal, never tried to be normal.

You are going to use this courtroom to kill me? I am going to fight for my life one way or another. You should let me do it with words.

Did I kill anyone?

I can't judge any of you. I have no malice against you and no ribbons for you. But I think that it is high time that you all start looking at yourselves, and judging the lie that you live in.

So for you people who are filled with fear that I might someday be released: breathe easy, I don't see it happening.

I have X'd myself from your world.

I never had long hair before I got busted. I never had a beard before I got busted.

I'm not very wise to many things.

The real strong have no need to prove it to the phonies.

I have killed no one and I have ordered no one to be killed.

Living is what scares me. Dying is easy.

My life is not important here.

I'm probably one of the most dangerous men in the world if I want to be. But I never wanted to be anything but me.

We're not in Wonderland anymore Alice.

You know a long time ago being crazy meant something. Nowadays everybodys crazy.

Total paranoia is just total awareness.

I know this: that in your own hearts and your own souls, you are as much responsible for the Vietnam War as I am for killing these people.

I sometimes lie awake at night trying to think of something funny that Richard Nixon said.

The choicest pleasures of life lie within the ring of moderation.

Simple ideas lie within the reach only of complex minds.

The Gorillaz cartoons seem more real to me than the actual people on TV. Because at least you know that there's some intelligence behind the cartoons, and there's a lot of work that's gone into it, so it can't all be just a lie.

Life is an unfoldment, and the further we travel the more truth we can comprehend. To understand the things that are at our door is the best preparation for understanding those that lie beyond.

Many have said of Alchemy, that it is for the making of gold and silver. For me such is not the aim, but to consider only what virtue and power may lie in medicines.

I don't like guys who will lie down and take it. I want someone who'll fight back. I like people who can argue well.

We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth, at least the truth that is given to us to understand.

It is better to take what does not belong to you than to let it lie around neglected.

The lie is a condition of life.

When I was 21, I got into a motorcycle accident while traveling in Europe and I had to lie around a lot in the aftermath, which was really the first time in my life that I became really focused and inspired to write.

No lie ever reaches old age.

Nowadays three witty turns of phrase and a lie make a writer.
