From minute one, I thought that after I called a game, I said 'Man, I thought I would enjoy calling a game a little more than I probably did.' I thought I would enjoy that part of it. I didn't have the fulfillment that I thought I probably would.
At the end of OK Computer we were playing big, big arenas and it wasn't right. You can do those things occasionally but at the time it didn't feel right.
This place? Nothing positive. OK, I want to say something positive. It's positively a dump.
I tried therapy. This had never appealed to me. For me, it was a bit like a Chinese meal: very filling at the time, but then an hour later you're hungry again.
Life is like a B-movie. You don't want to leave in the middle of it but you don't want to see it again.
Doing press is like eating at McDonald's: while it's going on it's vaguely enjoyable - you're seduced by your own vanity and taking yourself rather seriously - but immediately afterwards you feel sick.
There's nothing like it, but it's not as good as you think it's going to be. . . . I was disappointed because there are records of people finding things that have been there for years. I was hoping for a shirt button, or my club's badge - but not a sausage.
It would absolutely suck if you paid a few bucks for a book only to find that on the first page it said, 'Once upon a time they all lived happily ever after' and the rest of the book was blank.
I don't want to do a film where I have a ten minute role.
'Prince of Persia' just didn't turn out to be what I thought it was going to be.
Being famous was extremely disappointing for me. When I became famous it was a complete drag and it is still a complete drag.
The worst date I've been on was in L.A. with this guy I didn't want to be on a date with - he was just trying to take me to all these places and impress me but it was so cheesy.
Decaf is like masturbating with an oven mitt!
It's with pleasure that I'm putting film-making aside. I never enjoyed making films. I didn't like the whole film world - an invented, unreal world whose values are completely different to those I'm used to.
Mainly, when I go see a show, unfortunately it's more industrial espionage than it is going to actually enjoy a show.
I never was happy with the job I did in 'Ed Wood.'
I'd say that every haircut I've had has been a bad haircut.
I hate meeting my favorite bands because then it just ruins it.
You don't want to watch a film for two hours that depresses you or makes you think so much it evokes a negative reaction.
Oddly, I'm not a huge fan of Brisbane in Australia. I can't quite put my finger on why - it just seemed to lack verve, and I don't have any great desire to go back.
I was like, 'You know what, I'm going to try a juice cleanse.' I'd never done it before but I thought it was a good idea. I was miserable. I wanted food, I was cranky and the bottom line is I don't think I will ever do that again.
I was kind of bored playing drums in a band. Which was depressing, because playing in the band was kind of a golden ticket.
Bad movies are when people go, 'oh, I wasted $10 bucks and 2 hours and I don't even want to go back again.'
This morning I paid seventy cents for two little old dried-up slivers of bacon and one cockeyed egg. It took me till noon to get my appetite back.
The few times in my life where I had four or five movies in a row, it was a nightmare. I felt trapped. I felt like my life was planned for a year and a half or two years, and it was terrible. Most of the time, everything collapsed.
