Authority pisses me off. I think everyone should be able to drink and get loud whenever they want.

I like playing music because it's a good living and I get satisfaction from it. But I can't feed my family with satisfaction.

Most of my guitars have been instruments that look cool. I'm not picky. I never think, 'Oh, this neck isn't made of ebony,' or, 'These strings don't feel correct.' It doesn't matter too much.

I'm always feeling like I don't belong, no matter where I am. So I'm just searching for a family nonstop, and sometimes I find it in the mosh pit, sometimes I find it when I'm doing some French TV show with the president's wife.

Nothing's really a prized possession except my family, you know?

Dying, dying, someone told me just recently, dying is easy. Living is hard. for everyone.
