I find making trailers really frustrating, because sometimes the worst trailers are for the best movies.

You can't make everyone happy right away, you can't figure out what people want you to do, you just have to do what you want to do and hope it works out.

Great things come out of being hungry and cold. Once you're pampered, you get lazy.

Every cool riff has already been written by Black Sabbath. You're either playing it faster or slower or backwards, but they wrote it first.

White Zombie was a bunch of kids with the worst equipment playing in a basement. But that is what is so great about it. There is no reason to think that you can't do it.

Once you feel like you're being dictated by other people's expectations, it usually backfires.

Things like that become a blur - shot at some soundstage, somewhere - that's as much as I can remember.

The only thing I ever really care about is animals - animal causes. I don't really care about people that much, but animals I feel like they always need to be protected.

When you have too many people and you're trying to satisfy everybody's input, you usually end up with something so incredibly generic that it has no point of view.

I remember, especially like when I was in high school, going to see like Dawn of the Dead and it was like mayhem in the theater and you could barely even watch the movie. It was so fun.

I don't know that I have a fascination with witches per se - well, maybe I just have a fascination with everything that's weird.

I do not use psychiatric terms in my writing because the entrenched and developing behaviours were perfectly normal reactions to abnormal situations.

Music is all about wanting to be better at it.

Intimacies between women often go backwards, beginning in revelations and ending in small talk.

When men are most sure and arrogant they are commonly most mistaken.

The government paid the family of Richard Nixon $18 million for papers, tape recordings and other materials seized after Watergate.

In Italian there is an expression: We don't sleep on the fame.

Sometimes, I get in a mindset where I don't like my own music. I hate yourself and my music because I'm doing it every day. I feel like a clown.

The universe will reward you for taking risks on its behalf.

The only man who never makes a mistake is the man who never does anything.

When you play somebody's life, everything about your likeness, everything about the way you talk, whatever, has to become that person.
