"The past is just the future entered through another gate."

"I want to be remembered as someone who created something beautiful."

"I'm not a rock star. I'm just a rock and roller."

"The prettiest thing about all of this is that I got to share it with people who really understood what I was doing."

"I don't think it matters what you look like. I think matter is you're curious. And I think you're loyal. And I think you're truthful."

"I think the real divide is between those who accept how the world is and those who want to change it."

"You can absolutely be whatever you set your mind to when you have placing some faith in yourself on the part."

"I'm not particularly happy. I'm just less miserable."

"I suppose for me as an artist the platform that I have is much more important than pretty much anything else."

"I'm always amazed that people take what I say seriously. I don't even take what I say seriously."

"The future is just old history entered from the wrong perspective."

"I think you're only as good as the people around you and the things that you create."

"I had to resign myself many years ago that I'm not too articulate when it comes to explaining how I feel about things."

"It's no good trying to keep up old images, we just have to let them go, and avatars fall like rain."

"I'm just an individual who doesn't feel that I need to answer to anybody."

"Rock has always been the devil's music, but it's also always been God's music."

"I think what's really important is that we don't lose sight of what's really important."

"You can't repeat the same thing and expect different results."

"I'm not sure which of my personas is real anymore."

"The only tragic thing in the world is apathy."

"I've used every form of media available to me to say as much as I possibly can."

"Sometimes it snows. Sometimes it rains. Sometimes the sun shines through."

"I had a real education. Not just schooling."

"Tomorrow just belongs to the people who can conceive of it."

"The sad thing about any sexual encounter is that we're never truly naked."

"I'm back to the present, and I think that's where I should be."

"You don't have to be rich and famous. You just have to be an ordinary person with a good heart."

"Aging is an extraordinary process where you become the person you should have been."

"I'm a very introverted person. I'm very much a watcher."

"I think I've lost my fear of the dark."
