Ozzy Osbourne used to snort ants. Led Zeppelin had sex with hookers on — Moby

"Ozzy Osbourne used to snort ants. Led Zeppelin had sex with hookers on private planes. And I start an on-tour book club. Because one can only snort so many ants and have so much sex before one starts to long for the comfort and companionship of a good book."

"Im actually kind of impressed by Iraqs patience right now... I mean, look at it objectively. Theyve opened their doors to un inspectors, theyre being bombed by british and american troops, american forces are massing at their borders, american diplomats are actively looking to assinate [sic] Saddam Hussein, etc. It almost seems like Bush is doing everything he can to taunt Saddam Hussein. Not just if you step over this line I will hit you, but if you step over this line while I put rats on your back and put butter on the floor and make fun of your mom and move the line then I will hit you, in fact Ill hit you even if you just stand there and do nothing. Its painfully clear that iraq should not be allowed to have weapons of mass destruction. But it also seems painfully clear that the bush administration have no intention of finding a peaceful resolution to the situation in Iraq."

"I got a phone call from Ricky Martins management asking me if Id like to do something with him in Florida around the winter music conference. My answer is as follows: I would consider doing something with Ricky Martin if and only if he publicly apologizes for performing at George Ws inauguration and if he confirms that when he danced next to George W. Bush at the inauguration he could smell brimstone and that George W. Bush is in fact the spawn of Satan. So if Ricky Martin goes on national television to confirm that George W. is the spawn of Satan then I will perform with him. Otherwise no deal. And only if we can do a cover of In a Gadda-da-vida, but The Simpsons version, In the garden of Eden (to which reverend Lovejoy responds ""that sounds like rock and or roll""). And, by the way, Im a pretty easygoing young-ish person, so if you ever see me walking down the street just stop me and say hello. Were all in the same boat, right? of course youll have to make it past my phalanx of security guards who are all ex-NFL linebackers, and the cadre of dobermans, and the perma-moat that I wear thats filled with electric eels and vicious sea monkeys. So if you see me just come and say hi. Im normal."

"I guess you could say that I was somewhat withdrawn from my classmates. I spent a good deal of time being a loner. I suppose that had something to do with the way we lived — always on the move, never living in one town very long. Its very hard to make lasting friendships that way. And my father was rather strict with me and my two younger sisters. He insisted on proper behaviour and very often vetoed our choices of boyfriends. There was always a curfew whenever my sisters or I would go out on a date — we had to be home on time or else. But I never resented his authority. In fact, Im thankful for my strict upbringing; I feel it has helped me learn discipline — and thats very important in this business."
