Famous quotes by Julian Casablancas:

"Can our mind evolve to be something other than an extension of our animal needs?"

"I thought we were playing a bar. But this is nice."

"Greed is the inventor of injustice as well as the current enforcer."

"If it doesn't start with you, it dies with you."

"The period of earthly life in your greater existence is similar to the 15 minutes of fame you get down here...Everyone gets to share you in a different way. And both are dreams."

"Thanks for passing the torch...I think I burned my hand, though."

"Desire is individual. Happiness is common."

"Vanity can easily overtake wisdom. It usually overtakes common sense."

"With a hundred ways to do a dozen things, why not try it all?"

"No one leaves an old friend unless they are ashamed."

"I don't really care about clothes, but it's about wearing something that gives you social confidence."

"Who you are vs. who you wish you were: Who wins?"

"That it's a lot harder to make a keyboard sound not-cheesy than a guitar."

"It's not like I wake up and songs flow out of me."

"A tour is the most intense, stimulating way to hear music; it's the best form to receive it. There's genuine excitement from people. I feel like we've stepped up a level."

"Boarding school didn't feel like my world, I felt like an alien; people there had a lot of money."

"I think all of Manhattan has pretty much become a bar-slash-nightclub-slash-restaurant. There were always pockets of that. But now every corner of Manhattan is that."

"The best solutions are often simple, yet unexpected."

"I think I used to do everything and then people had a problem with that within the band, so we're doing more of a communal thing."

"I always reference 'Mad Max' when I think about what I want to wear. But it's a fine line between that and 'Edward Scissorhands'."
