Everyone knows how funny Zappa quotes are, but these aren't bad either: "I'm not a rock star. I'm a soft person. I'm not a rock." "I don’t like marches. I'll tell you why: war. It's very similar to disco." "It makes me itch to think of myself as Captain Beefheart....I don't even have a boat." "I like the blues..... but I like aqua marine just as much." "Be kind, man - don't be mankind." |

There's more: "An audience can really lift you right up off the stage." "Everyone's colored ... else you wouldn't be able to see them." "I don't even know what sound is, much less what it's for. It isn't to make money that's for sure. I've never made any." "The wind is a very difficult sound to get. It's always changing." "I would never kill a living thing, although I probably have inadvertently while driving automobiles." "Man has done a lot to make himself dangerous and animals get the worst of all of it. But then, man too is an animal." "When I see a dolphin, I know it's just as smart as I am." "The stars are matter, we're matter, but it doesn't matter." |

How about these: "The largest living land mammal is the absent mind." "The way I keep in touch with the world is very gingerly, because the world touches too hard."  Many more http://www.beefheart.com/zigzag/quotes.htm - here . |
