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

We always sold 4 or 5 million records no matter what we did.

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.

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

I didn't think I'd be around 30 years later

I had been in Africa for six weeks on a safari with my family. I said, "You know, I made a lot of money. I am getting kind of burned out. I really want to do something special." So I went on this extended trip to Egypt, Kenya, Sardinia - I really did it, man. I was coming home, and while I was gone, they changed the speed limit from 65 to 55.

I just have a vision of something, and it seems to go a long way. One thought goes a long way.
