People get so upset about lyrics, and they're probably totally cool with horror movies. That doesn't really make sense.

I can safely say that any band with a sentence for a name, 6 members or more and carefully combed to the side hairdos are not metal no matter what distortion pedal they have for their guitars.

That's what metal means to me, feeling that feeling when you hear something that totally turns you on.

Soccer matches in Europe have riot police. Metal is just people sloshing around drunk and sloppy and having fun, and there's nothing wrong with that. It is a great outlet for aggression.

You can see it in people's faces, when they're into a metal band. It's cool to see that being passed on.

I've got friends in bands who seem like they're always on tour, even still. It may be in some people's blood. I'm sure some bands do it just to earn a living or for the experience.

I like whatever's good. Metal, rock, new or old - I don't care, as long as it does something to my brain.

I'm always interested in new things. I don't go seeking out every band I can hear because there are too many, especially now with the Internet. There's no way you can collect everything.

If it entertains you, cool - read it, listen to it, watch it. But if it horrifies or disgusts you or scares you, then don't listen to it.

I don't want to hurt you or anybody so please forget about me. Just try. Find yourself a better friend.

Just like changing personality, culture change is possible but difficult.

Who are you, Hockenberry, to thwart Fate and defy the Will of the Gods?I am me, Thomas Hockenberry. I am fed up with these power-addled thugs who call themselves gods.

Every life is precious, has value, a purpose, and is significant. Each life adds value to this world and to the lives of others. That value is immeasurable.

You maybe able to fool the voters, but not the atmosphere.

News is what a chap who doesn't care much about anything wants to read.

All afternoon in the deck chair, I try to describe to my notebook the colors of the water and sky. How to translate sunlight into words?

I always work on my abs, every single day. As Miss Universe, exercising your abdominal muscles is mandatory!

When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree by the river of truth, and tell the whole world - No, you move.
