People always expect you to be jumping out of a Rolls Royce and being in the papers for drunk and disorderly or sleeping around.

Groupies to me, were people who followed you around. Familiar faces who were always there, asking for autographs. We have more of those now, but they're not sexual.

The Monkees are like the mafia. You're in for life. Nobody gets out.

Wherever I go, people still shout out: 'Hey, hey, we're The Monkees.' And I never tire of that.

You know I used to be a heartthrob, and now I'm a coronary.

The only people who didn't like The Monkees were the French, and they don't even like themselves, so what's the point?
