“Masturbation is one of the safest ways to explore your own sexuality.”

“Rock stars suck. Man, I'd be so embarrassed at being called a rock star. A lot of those connotations aren't conductive to my lifestyle. I don't do drugs, I don't fuck groupies, I don't spend all my money on limos and mansions and cocaine. I have a car and a small house and I go on tour and go to bed early and wake up and have tea. I'm a worker, man. I don't think many people see me as a rock star; hopefully they see me as a normal person. 'Musician' would be just fine.”

“There is no right or wrong. There is only your voice. Your voice, screaming through an old Neve 8028 recording console. Your voice, singing from a laptop. Your voice, echoing from a street corner. A cello, a turntable, a guitar, Serato, a Studer. It doesn't matter. What matters most is that it's your voice. Cherish it. Respect it. Nurture it. Challenge it. Stretch it, and scream until it's fucking gone. Because every human being is blessed with at least that. And who knows how long it will last?”

“I still dream about Kurt. Every time I see him in a dream, I’ll be amazed and I get this feeling that everyone else thinks he’s dead. It always feels totally real, probably because I’m a very vivid dreamer. But, in my dreams, Kurt’s usually been hiding - we’ll get together and I’ll end up asking him, ‘God, where have you been?’”

“Perez [Hilton]: Are you drunk right now? Grohl: No, I gotta play. Perez: Britney Spears has been getting wasted all the time, hasn't stopped her. Grohl: Yeah, but she doesn't have to sing live.”

Recorded in: Quoted in Shirley Halperin, "My Summer With the Foo Fighters," Entertainment Weekly (2007-09-21)
“Around the time that I recorded the first Foo Fighters tape, I was reading a lot of books on UFO’s. … So, since I had recorded the first record by myself, playing all the instruments, but I wanted people to think that it was a group, I figured that FOO FIGHTERS - WW2 term for UFO’s - might lead people to believe that it was more than just one guy. Silly, huh? Had I actually considered this to be a career, I probably would have called it something else, because it’s the stupidest fucking band name in the world.”

“I'd like to imagine I won't end up in hell, but I think I've done too much acid and listened to too much death metal to sit on a cloud next to God with angels floating above my head.”
