All that stuff about heavy metal and hard rock, I don't subscribe to any of that. It's all just music. I mean, the heavy metal from the Seventies sounds nothing like the stuff from the Eighties, and that sounds nothing like the stuff from the Nineties. Who's to say what is and isn't a certain type of music?

I've been a practicing alcoholic and drug addict for most of my life.

There are no uncriminal crimes.

Maybe it's not too late to learn how to love and forget how to hate.

I wish I didn't have to perform 'Iron Man' every night.

I've got many, many demons that affect me on many, many levels.

I think war is just part of human nature. And I’m fascinated by human nature – especially the dark side. I always have been. It doesn’t make me a Devil worshipper, no more than being interested in Hitler makes me a Nazi. I mean, if I’m a Nazi, how come I married a woman who’s half Jewish?
