Some things are impossible.

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

When you leave the planet, you leave music behind.

You come to the planet with nothing and you leave with nothing, so youd 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.

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

You must never believe all these things which the scientists say because they always want more than they can get-they are never satisfied.
