Rock isn't art, it's the way ordinary people talk.

If your world doesn't allow you to dream, move to one where you can.

It doesn't matter about money; having it, not having it. Or having clothes, or not having them. You're still left alone with yourself in the end.

I love it when someone insults me. That means that I don't have to be nice anymore.

The biggest misconception people have about me is that I'm stupid.

I don't think punk ever really dies, because punk rock attitude can never die.

Let's sink another drink, cause it will give me time to think.

I am very seldom interested in applications. I am more interested in the elegance of a problem. Is it a good problem, an interesting problem?

None but the contemptible are apprehensive of contempt.

I wanted when we began this to have a conversation, the kind that you're able to have, and the only way I knew how to do it was not to have a pre-interview.

I think we owe absolutely everything to the fans.

In nearly all ballads, the words set the mood and meaning, while the music intensifies or enhances them.

Somebody ought to have the courage to tell the truth. These people are terrorists.
