I don't have a problem with 'Idol' or 'X Factor,' I have a problem with when those things are not given the proper contextual hue.

I was part of a generation that changed the world, and it was taken over by posers.

I'm sort of like a lame, single guy in a red sports car.

If I have resistance to something, it means there's something wrong. The resistance to me is a sign of fear.

In a weird kind of way, music has afforded me an idealism and perfectionism that I could never attain as me.

In my case I don't mind playing a character that irritates people or makes people question my sanity.

Like any good tree that one would hope to grow, we must set our roots deep into the ground so that what is real will prosper in the Light of Love.

There's a lot of days where you feel forgotten.

Where is this great love for rock and roll that existed for 50 or 60 years?

All I can go on is my own value system.

Do I belong in the conversation about the best artists in the world? My answer is yes, I do.

For someone who's had the level of success I've had, there's been very little critical review of my work, which is pretty fascinating.

I always thought Kurt Cobain was the perfect embodiment of the great alternative guitar player.

I believe that if the Tribune company ever tries to close down Wrigley Field that you will have a protest from every corner of the globe.

I do not think wrestling is going to save the world.

I do not trust those who make the vaccines, or the apparatus behind it all to push it on us through fear.

I don't wanna play this kind of cartoon character anymore.

I don't want to be 25 again.

I don't want to be a dead hero.

I grew up in a house of no love or emotion - it kind of sticks with you.
