Whatever else has been said about me personally is unimportant. When I sing, I believe. I'm honest.

Rock 'n Roll is the most brutal, ugly, desperate, vicious form of expression it has been my misfortune to hear.

The martial music of every sideburned delinquent on the face of the earth.

I'm supposed to have a Ph.D. on the subject of women. But the truth is I've flunked more often than not. I'm very fond of women; I admire them. But, like all men, I don't understand them.

You gotta love livin', baby, 'cause dyin' is a pain in the ass.

Dare to wear the foolish clown face.
