I loved playing the guitar and I knew I was pretty good at it, so that's what I wanted to do with my life.

I'm just a kid from Bronx who got lucky.

I'm not here to perform. I'm here to sign autographs. You have to wait till I come back with my own hand.

Finding a good band is Iike finding a good wife. You got to keep trying till you find the right one.

I've never read anything about heroin where, yeah, it's a good experience, and you can do it for 20 years and enjoy it, like having a cold beer. It doesn't work that way with heroin.

Every time Paul and Gene use my makeup, they have to pay me a royalty check. I think they changed the makeup so they didn't have to pay me.

I think the fans really wanna hear the songs the way they sound on the record.
