All my houses are isolated. Many is the time I just stay home alone.

I do really believe that all guitarists have a different character that comes through, that's a strong character, the stronger the person is.

I do not worship the devil. But magic does intrigue me. Magic of all kinds. I bought Crowley's house to go up and write in. The thing is, I just never get up that way. Friends live there now.

I don't like to tell people what format they can get things in, or say, "I'm only going to release this on vinyl and nothing else. You have to come to my world." I don't like to say that to people either. But, I do think there's a loss of romance.

I like change and I like contrast.

My favorite guitar solo of all time was Elliot Randall's on `Reelin' In The Years'.

There's a certain standard in classical music that allows the application of the term "genius," but you're treading on thin ice if you start applying it to rock & rollers.
