"While I might be a little nostalgic for the innocence, the grace, that existed before my behaviour became consciously calculated, my life was full of pain and fear then, and it wasn't even really innocent either. [...]

I hated the raw oppression of being a kid once I became self-aware. I don't like "alpha" people as a rule, and in the random enclosed societies of schools, you have to deal with them. I didn't like being stuck with strangers, period, either. I also didn't like being told what to do, and of course school and childhood itself is about the authority of all grown-ups. I knew as well as any of them what was worthwhile, but because I was a kid and they were bigger and had more power than me, I was cheated.

I remember making some promises to my adult self when I was still a kid - or exacting some promises from my adult self. I promised not to forget how arbitrary and unfair adult rules are. I promised to remain true to the principles I grasped that adults sometimes pretended to know but hardly ever behaved in accordance with.

I wanted to have a life of adventure. I didn't want anybody telling me what to do. I knew this was the most important thing and that all would be lost if I pretended otherwise like grown-ups did."

“People get so angry because I don’t have this idea that if you work on it, it’s going to get better. It’s got to be good the moment they do it or else I just can’t stay with it - but I have a wide latitude of what’s good, because I like to watch people fumbling around, too.” - Elizabeth LeCompte

“Dominic Johnson: Are your bands artists’ bands?

Lydia Lunch: What do you mean by “artists’ bands”? I don’t know what that means.

Dominic Johnson: I mean where the band is a kind of conceptual-art project.

Lydia Lunch: Well I kicked out the bass player of Teenage Jesus [And The Jerks] because he called it an art project. That was Gordon Stevens and he died not long after, and I’m like that’s a fu***ng art project you mo********er, you just died!”
