More From Henry Rollins

Success is a learnable skill. you can learn to succeed at anything. if you want to be a great golfer, you can learn how to do it. if you want to be a great piano player, you can learn how to do it. if you want to be truly happy, you can learn how to do it. if you want to be rich, you can learn how to do it. it doesn't matter where you are right now. it doesn't matter where you're starting from. what matters is that you are willing to learn.

You only learn when you give your whole being to something. when you give your whole being to mathematics,you learn; but when you are in a state of contradiction, when you do not want to learn but are forced to learn, then it becomes merely a process of accumulation. to learn is like reading a novel with innumerable characters; it requires your full attention, not contradictory attention.

There's nothing wrong with loving your country. there's nothing wrong with caring about who gets into your country. there's nothing wrong about wanting your country to be great. there's nothing wrong with thinking that the country comes before the world. there's nothing wrong at all, and that's been wrong in the past and we're gonna make it right. we're gonna love america, we're gonna unify, we're gonna make america great again.

If you're a poet, you do something beautiful. i mean, you're supposed to leave something beautiful after you get off the page and everything. the ones you're talking about don't leave a single, solitary thing beautiful. all that maybe the slightly better ones do is sort of get inside your head and leave something there, but just because they do, just because they know how to leave something, it doesn't have to be a poem for heaven's sake. it may just be some kind of terribly fascinating, syntaxy droppings--excuse the expression. like manlius and esposito and all those poor men.

Imagine that for hundreds of years your most formative traumas, your daily suffering and pain, the abuse you live through, the terror you live with, are unspeakable - not the basis of literature. you grow up with your father holding you down and covering your mouth so another man can make a horrible searing pain between your legs.... you learn how to leave your body and create someone else who takes over when you cannot stand it any more. you develop a self who is ingratiating and obsequious and imitative and aggressively passive and silent - you learn, in a word, femininity.
