The good thing about breaking up is that you have nothing else to lose.

It's a good thing I don't read everything Eddie says, or I'd be up in arms and not enjoying my life.

I loved that song ["Don't Tell Me"], but man, it was dark. That song did nothing for Van Halen.

I think all the bad blood started when Geffen released a greatest hits package of my solo stuff.

I don't want to talk about negative, dark things. The only thing I've got against stuff like Marilyn Manson is, they make unbelievable videos and unbelievable images.

The reason my voice is sounding more passionate is because I'm singing directly from the heart.

If you have a higher reason ... than just to make money... it will bring you longer fulfillment. And it won't feel like work.
