More From Jarvis Cocker
- "As a shy kid growing up in Sheffield, I fantasized about how it would be great to be famous so I wouldn’t actually have to talk to people and feel awkward. And of course, as we all know from fairy stories, when you achieve that ambition, you find out you don’t want it."
- "For me, the great thing about music is that anybody can do it."
- "I think basically becoming famous has taken the place of going to Heaven in modern society, hasn’t it? That’s the place where your dreams will come true. It’s an act of faith now; they think that’s going to sort things out."

- "We were born to die and we die to live. As seedlings of God, we barely blossom on earth; we fully flower in heaven."― Russell M. Nelson
- "Just as we reject racism, sexism, ageism, and heterosexism, we reject speciesism. The species of a sentient being is no more reason to deny the protection of this basic right than race, sex, age, or sexual orientation is a reason to deny membership in the human moral community to other humans."― Gary L. Francione
- "Under all speech that is good for anything there lies a silence that is better, Silence is deep as Eternity; speech is shallow as Time."― Thomas Carlyle
