We were always told we were one step behind Deep Purple, one step behind Led Zeppelin, one step behind everybody. Our manager didn't want to let us know how popular we were. It's only after we did Ozzfest that people started telling me stuff. I thought they were taking the piss. People would come up to me and go, "Respect."

I can't change the past, but I can try to make a better future for me.

I wanted to be the fifth Beatle.

Just take our name off the list. . . . The nomination is meaningless, because it's not voted on by the fans . . . .

I used to get upset by people not understanding me, but I’ve made a career out of it now.

I can't do anything in moderation.

I don't want to be a hero, I don't want to ever let you down.
