It's hard not to respect Kobe Bryant's game: He's one of the all-time greats.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
As far as I remember, I don't have any warrants out for my arrest anymore. I can travel without fear.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
Nobody likes to believe that they need anybody's help in anything, and the smarter you are - and I'm not smart - or the tougher you are - and at times I thought I was pretty tough - the more trouble you have.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
When I was a kid, I got caught shoplifting by a store security guard in Ellensburg. The next time I saw that store guard was when I got thrown in jail again - this time for not paying court fees. The guy happened to be in jail, too, right next to me. That's what Eastern Washington is like - you never get too far away from anybody.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
I have to have animals. They really make life worth living, and my world actually revolves around them. They know exactly when it's time to get up, exactly when they're supposed to get their food, and they let you know. Mine are right there in my face, first thing every morning.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
When I'm listening to music for pleasure, I'm gonna listen to someone else's music.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
I used to throw a lot of stuff against the wall, just to see what ended up sticking; now I'm pretty much using everything that I create for a record.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
It's satisfying and gratifying to make your own music, but I personally don't get the same enjoyment out of the music that I make as I do from somebody else's music that I like.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
In 2005, I worked as a scenic painter for a while when I was taking a break from music.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
Doing something that's physical but not necessarily mentally taxing - for me, it frees me up creatively.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
When I was in high school, I took French. I barely passed and didn't learn anything at all. There was a joke among me and my friends in the class that nothing sounded more ridiculous than a guy with a country accent speaking French.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
I can't say what people use the experience of listening to songs for, but I would never tell somebody what it is supposed to mean. That defeats the purpose of making it. Hopefully, whoever connects with it connects with it in their own way, and it can mean whatever it is supposed to mean to them.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
All the guys I know that play guitar are also secretly drummers and vice versa.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
Even when I'm making my own solo records, I'm collaborating with people. It keeps things interesting for me.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
I'm not a human interest story, man. I'm just a musician trying to make some small records and be happy, be peaceful.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
My favorite record, growing up, was 'Songs of the Haunted House,' a Disney record that was just wackiness. It's still one of my favorites, actually.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
I'm trying to learn how to read. I have a tutor out on the road. It is great.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
I think there's something therapeutic in singing about anything, whether it's what you've written or whether it's someone else's song. I find both satisfying in different ways.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
It's a different kind of satisfaction, different kind of enjoyment than making your own songs, to remake someone else's song that you really like.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
Naturally, if I'm singing over really loud music, my approach is gonna be different than if I'm singing over some quiet acoustic music.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
There's lots of singers that I love; I don't know if I used any of them as role models. Maybe I would have been a better singer when I started if I had.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
Hanging out with the Trees is like hanging out with your family, and I hardly ever see my family.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
You just realize that you don't know everything there is to know. The older I get, the less I know, and that's a good thing. When I was young, I knew everything, and everything wasn't necessarily good.
Quote by -Mark Lanegan
The guys who spend their time brooding in their younger years either lighten up or go away.
