The Beatles will never get back together and David Lee Roth will never again sing with Van Halen.

Everybody has a high point and a lot goes into that: timing, situation, general consciousness.

Whatever our personal differences are, there are no bigger fans of this band than the people who are in this band.

It's unfortunate nine years were in between - you can't take that time back; you can't undo it.

There is a volatile mix, and that's because we're all intense. And there's no denying that.

Van Halen is a work in progress.

When you leave the planet, you leave music behind.

Yeah, we have our differences, but we put those aside, and now we're making music. It's great.

You come to the planet with nothing and you leave with nothing, so you'd better do some good while you are here.

It's part of our nature. As much as I love (brother and guitarist Eddie), if you put us in a room with no one else for 15 minutes, we'd be at each other's throats.

At our age, you don't want to stop.

Meaning that if you live in the moment, so to speak, we play today, and tonight we're done.

Music is a dialogue.

Nobody sets out to make a bad record.

On a personal level, we all get along fine.

Sammy and I got together and it was like we hadn't missed a beat.

Some things are impossible.

There's nothing worse than having everybody thinking alike, talking alike and having the same direction in mind. It gets stale that way.

We're having a blast. Just four friends getting together.

We're very needy people, you know.
