We, PANTERA, had the greatest, the most intense, dedicated fans I've ever seen in my ******* life. And I really hope with all my heart that one day, people - especially our fans and my friends - can see clearly enough to think for themselves and really realize that I have nothing but love for them. I've just been going through personal hell since December. Once again, it's very hard to talk about, man. You know, my heart is in a thousand pieces a day.

I tried to take heavy metal... and balled it up and chopped it in half and really tried to create a new form of energy. I really tried to re-shape extreme music as I see it through my eyes.

In my better sense of mind, I know that Im far from alone and far from the worst, and the earth keeps spinning. Everything keeps moving, with or without me.

There's always something going on, but thank goodness these days it's with a clear head, which helps me massively.

Drink beer, smoke dope, and eat pussy until your jaw breaks

When I die bury me in smoke.

You're always going to have detractors, and you're always going to have people who love you, and that's how it's perfectly balanced and the world spins on.
