I don’t have the passion anymore, and so remember, it’s better to burn out than to fade away.

I didn't know how to deal with success. If there was a Rock Star 101, I would have liked to take it. It might have helped me.

People think of life as being so sacred and they feel like this is their only chance and they have to do something with their life and make an impact As far as I'm concerned, it's just a pitstop for the afterlife. It's just a little test to see how you can handle reality.

Live music is the most primal form of energy release you can share with other people besides having sex or taking drugs.

And I swear that I don't have a gun.

I won't eat anything green.

I just don't like to get intimate. I don't want anyone to know what I feel and what I think, and if they can't get some kind of an idea of what sort of person I am through my music, then that's too bad.
