Making films has never just been a job to me, it is my life. I have some interests outside of acting - I sing and I've written books, for instance - but acting is what keeps me going, it's what I do, it gives life purpose.

Johnny Depp, as far as I'm concerned, is number one. Of his generation, there's no one who can touch him. Some performers, today, it's like looking at holes in the air.

I've seen many men die right in front of me - so many in fact that I've become almost hardened to it. Having seen the worst that human beings can do to each other, the results of torture, mutilation and seeing someone blown to pieces by a bomb, you develop a kind of shell. But you had to. You had to. Otherwise, we would never have won.

I have been metal all my life, only I did not know about it. The people in this album (Charlemagne) and I, share the same values.

Comedy is the most difficult thing to do. Easily the most difficult.

I thought that people should know about the dangers of Satanism, and diabolism does exist - there's no question about it.

To be a legend, you've either got to be dead or excessively old.
