Josh Homme Quotes

If reason is priceless there's no reason to pay for it.

JOSH HOMME: It’s hard to make friends when you don’t know why someone wants to know you, because you have some notoriety. He was in the beginning stages of that, which really, at the end, was a major contributor to why we’re talking about him, and not to him.

You never really know someone till everything goes wrong.

Ask yourself Will i burn in Hell? Then write it down and cast it in the well There they are The mob it cries for blood To twist the tale Into fore wood Fan the flames With a little lie Then turn your cheek Until the fire dies The skin it peels Like the truth, away What it was I will never say...

It’s something to strive for that is not the mundane. It gives people peace of mind. It’s something you reach for that you can barely tickle but not quite get a hold of. And this [outpouring] makes that idealistic beauty so bright that you’d have to be a bitter asshole to deny its existence.

I don’t want what I’m afraid of to dictate every move I make.

It feels wonderful not to have anything to hide behind. It’s scary as shit, but that is okay.
