looking at nearly 20 years of quotes from him all at once, he really doesn't particularly like anyone or anything, does he? at least he's consistent, i guess....

I liked that one, but then I am a miserable bastard.

Michael Stipe wasn't witty, it was shitty.

Just above? Only if Mr. Wire is packing another Tarka in there...

Edit: That herpes quote paired with that particular picture is very, very effective birth control.

On staying relevant: "These are tough times for guitar bands. We're on our tenth album, a lot of bands get to their tenth album and they don't really mean anything, I think luckily enough, we're still pretty relevant." (MusicRooms, 2010).

What exactly is relevant about retreading old ground, making music that panders to your perceived ideas of what the public wants, rather than making music that pushes boundaries and forces people to catch up with the artist?

In short, the man who had read everything published today, would be more stupid than a man who had read nothing."
