Thinking about what songs are coming next instead of just relaxing, breathing and playing from my heart. Sometimes it can get to be almost like the enemy.

Before my accident I was a little too... selfish and self-absorbed and for me, to now be at the place where I can kinda give back and inspire people. I'm blessed. I'm really blessed.

And more importantly, I wouldnt be the person I am today, I wouldnt be where I am now and I may not even have been here if it wasnt for the accident.

Some people say that practice makes perfect but I just feel that the repetition works against me and I start thinking too far ahead during a show.

I was happy in Dublin because it is very cosmopolitan.

Just the same way I'd say a prayer before going onstage, taking that even further and using the drum to inspire people. And using that as a vehicle for the intention.

I really don't feel any strong allegiance to any country.

I have never been one for the over-the-top.

I love being able to see an un-written future.

No matter what your spiritual condition is, no matter where you find yourself in the universe, your choice is always the same: to expand your awareness or contract it.

The unforgivable political sin is vanity the killer diet is sour grapes.

Virtue is not photogenic. What is it to be a nice guy? To be nothing, that's what. A big fat zero with a smile for everybody.

Nothing is so effective in keeping one young and full of lust as a discriminating palate thoroughly satisfied at least once a day

Don't bring anything to me but trouble.

Practice random acts of kindness and senseless acts of beauty.

Imagine jumping into a pit of boiling acid. Now multiply that pain times fifty." -Percy

That's why it's called Sebastian Bach. I mean, it's a permanent band, pretty much, but if I jam with other people, it just makes a better album, I think.

I've thought a lot about success, because it's very strange to me that I've been successful.
