Penelope Spheeris is a wonderful lady. She's a very talented director, and I curse better because of her.

Buckethead [former GUNS N' ROSES guitarist] is probably twice as good a guitar player as me and Slash combined, and can stand having fried chicken rubbed up against his face all night for a couple of hours.

To me, the most important thing was to treat people the way you want to be treated. Some people say that I'm a mean person. Well, you know what? The person that's saying that is probably a dipshit and I put them in their place! I have a knack for doing that.

Megadeth doesn't sound anything like Metallica.

My mom and dad got divorced when I was very young, and growing up in a family where the head of the household wasn't a man made a big difference.

Playing acoustic guitar is like having sex with your clothes on. I mean you know how to do it, but it’s more difficult.

I care more about what God knows than what man says.
