I think that is just about as dishonest as a person giving a bad interview. I despise people like that; they don't get two tries. It's all just sensation. It is always bullshit.

He [Randy Rhoads] was really a good guy. I never could get over how incredibly little he was.

They [The Beatles ] were the first band to write their own songs in Britain because we always just covered American songs before that.

As you go through life's rich tapestry, you realize that most people you meet aren't fit to shine your shoes. It's a sad fact, but it's true. A good friend is someone who'd hide you if you were on the run for murder. How many of them do you know?

We never nicked stuff from other bands because that was a no-no because we were all in the same boat. You don't steal from the poor because, let's face it, they're poor. There's no sense in that.

Every generation thinks they are stronger than the generation before it. They think, "It can't happen to me." In the past people have died making that same mistake.

...what happened in New York and Washington is the same thing that England and America did to Berlin every day for three years during World War II -- and Germany did the same thing to England.
