KURTS QUOTES


"Life is what you make of it, it's your
crossword puzzle"


"We break things all the time,
but that's just us compensating
for the frustration of being on
the road"


"I'm changing my name to numchuck bitch"


"I don't think Courtney and I are
are that fucked up. We've just lucked
love all our lives"


"At this point I have a request for our
fans. If any of you in any way hate
homosexuals, people of a different color
please do this one favor for us - leave
us the fuck alone"


"I think it becomes less pleasurable and
satisfying when I think of it in terms of
"my job". Writing is the one part that is
not a job, it's expression. Photo shoots,
interviews....thats the real job part"


"When I write a song, the lyrics are
the least important thing"


"I'm a spokesman for myself.It just
so happens that there are a bunch
of people that are concerned with
what I say. I find that frightening
at times, because I'm as confused
as most people. I don't have the
answers for anything. I don't
want to be a fucking spokesperson."


"I just want you people to know that
Courtney Love, lead singer of the
sensational pop group Hole, is the
best fuck in the world"


"Nirvana falls off the flower laughing"


(Kurt's first poem, written when he was nine)
"I hate mum
I hate dad
Dad hates mum
Mum hates dad
It just wants to make you feel so sad"


"You know what I hate about rock? I hate
tie-dyed t-shirts. I wouldn't wear a
tie-dyed t-shirt unless it was dyed with
the urine of Phil Collins and the blood of
Gerry Garcia"


"People ask what it's like to hear our song
on the radio. I don't know, I don't listen
to the radio"


"I'm a narcoleptic, so I have a hard time
being motivated. I forget things all the
time"


"Zits are beauty marks"


"we thought we'd sell a couple of hundred
thousand records at the most, and that
would be fine. The next thing you know,
we go top ten"


"Our songs have the standard pop format:
Verse, chorus, verse, chorus, solo, bad solo.
All in all, we sound like The Knack and The
Bay City Rollers being molested by Black
Flag and Black Sabbath"


"Rape is one of the most terrible crimes
on earth. The problem with groups who
deal with rape is that they try to
educate women about how to defend
themselves. What really needs to be
done is to teach man not to rape
Go to the source and start there"


"I liked anything that was a little
bit weird, a little bit different
I always went for the phsycotic,
weird, 'dirgey' bands"


"I don't want to be associated with
ninety-nine percent of all rock and
roll bands"


"I have to hear rumours about me all
the time, I'm totally fucking sick of
it"


"I'm a walking talking bacterial infection!"


"I'm definately gay in spirit and I
probably could be bisexual. If I
hadn't have found Courtney, I
probably would have carried on with
a bisexual lifesyle"


"Maintaining the punk rock ethos is
more important to me than anything"


"We're so trendy that we can't even
escape ourselves"


"America may be the land of the free
but there are definately more ignorant
people there. Most of the population
are semi-retarded"


"Nothing is better than playing live even
though we may say we hate it and have said
we may not continue to play live, but playing
in front of people who react well, is the
best thing in the world"
