Interviewer: “Has experimenting with heroin made you feel more mortal?”
Kurt Cobain: “That’s a weird question. I don’t know. I’ve never thought of that. I’m still not any more easily amused. I don’t know. There are certain privileges that I can use, and I’m grateful for that.”
Interviewer: “Money or not, at the end of the day, do you still feel you can live forever?” A long pause. “Do you want a different question?
Kurt Cobain: “No. No, I like this question. But I don’t know the answer.”
“Well, you do learn things and & one of them is that happiness has nothing to do with validation from other people. The important thing is being happy with yourself… finding something that is important to you & sticking with it no matter what anyone says.

“I have become a lot more optimistic. Once something like marriage and a baby happens to a person, you find a lot of strength that you didn’t know you had.” -Kurt Cobain, July 1993
“Wearing a dress shows I can be as feminine as I want. I’m a heterosexual… big deal. But if I was a homosexual, it wouldn’t matter either.” -Kurt Cobain
