In many ways, I have no idea what would have become of me if punk hadn't happened, because the '70s turned out to be so stale, and so boring, and so backward compared to what had come just before. We were too young to have fully experienced the '60s and the fervor of the anti-war movement.

All of these reissues were not authorized by me, I do not endorse them, the live album was put out without my permission, and I've not seen a dime at this point, either.

For every prohibition you create, you also create an underground.

Our biggest national security threat is the environmental destruction of our planet and the arms race with ourselves.

I'm tired of being ruled by the Skull and Bones. The only place they belong are on punk-rock albums!

My parents didn't hide reality. I watched cartoons and the news with equal fascination.

Another part of what gave me a questioning, rabble-rousing, activist heart and soul is that when all these heavy events went down, my parents did not shelter the kids from it.
