I do all my interviews on the toilet.

I'm not ridiculously wealthy, but I don't squander money either.

Notes and chords have become my second language and, more often than not, that vocabulary expresses what I feel when language fails me.

I've always had to do things my way; I play guitar my way; I've taken myself to the edges of life my way; I've gotten clean my way; And I'm still here. Whether or not I deserve to be is another story.

I guess you could say there are two Slashes. There's the crazy, rock-and-roll Slash, he's wild. And then there's the real Slash- he collects miniature soaps and treats his hookers real nice.

When we weren't being transcendent we specialized in self-inflicted disaster.

When it comes to actually writing, I like to write in a full room with the amps blasting, and a big drum set.
