"I believe that today more than ever a book should be sought after even if it has only one great page in it. We must search for fragments, splinters, toenails, anything that has ore in it, anything that is capable of resuscitating the body and the soul."

 

"The ones who don't do anything are always the ones who try to put you down." --Henry Rollins

 

I admire this person's abilities--musician, thinker, writer. Too bad he didn't start rock climbing, he'd make a kick-ass climber.

You're as thick as a lead barrel. You really think that Lummox isn't an avatar? You think that 'Sphinx' is a person who is just as annoying in real life as I am here? Think again, buddy. rolleyes.gif

rollins since he left black flag has declined significantly. also the dude isscared of vancouver cause nardwuar might try to interview him or something. also he was in johnny mnemnonic but couldnt act. but the title "see a grown man cry -now watch him die" is OK i guess. smirk.gif

Yeah, Rollins may have been quoting Henry Miller. Have you heard his bit, 'Maturity' from 'A Rollins in the Wry'? I think he mentions a quote from Henry Miller and some lyrics from the Afghan Whigs.

 

Have you heard that plagarism is the highest form of praise, not that Rollins does it, he attributes the source.

Sphinx, go back to class and learn how to read. Then, go out in the real world and learn how to think. You're as dense as a lead weight.

I saw The Rollins Band in PDX back when Tool was the unknown opening act. We arrived early during daylight hours to find the place, and the tour bus was parked in front of the venue. Henry Rollins was hanging out on the sidewalk talking to people -- hadn't seen anything like that before, and haven't seen it since. thumbs_up.gif
