Quotes from GG Allin's interviews with Jane Whitney and Jerry Springer:
"... How many of you can, at 35 years old, sleep with 16, 12, 13 year old girls and boys and animals? Hey, this is the life."
"... I'm out for violence, chaos, lawlessness all the way. I don't care about anybody or anything except myself and my mission..."
"I've been doing this ever since I was a child... When I wake up tomorrow morning, I'll still smell the same way, I'll still look the same way. This is not a show, this is not an act; I am that guy."
