RICHARD HELL (FROM A PUNK MAGAZINE INTERVIEW WITH LEGS McNEIL):
Basically, I have one feeling...the desire to get out of here. And any other feelings I have come from trying to analyze, you know, why I want to go away...See, I always feel uncomfortable and I just want to...walk out of the room. It's not going to any other place or any other sensation, or anything like that, it's just to get out of 'here'.
L.M.: When do you feel comfortable?
R.H.: When I'm asleep...
L.M.: Are you glad you were born?
R.H.: I have my doubts...Did you ever read Nietzsche?
L.M.: Ha ha ha.
R.H.: Legs, listen to me, he said that anything that makes you laugh, anything that's funny indicates an emotion that's died. Every time you laugh that's an emotion, a serious emotion, that doesn't exist with you anymore...and that's why I think you and everything else is so funny.
L.M.: Yeah, I do too, but that's not funny.
R.H.: That's because you don't have any emotions [hysterical laughter]

...if you dig what i'm sayin, and stuff.
