If it's illegal to rock and roll, throw my ass in jail!
-
If you die you’re completely happy and your soul somewhere lives on. I’m not afraid of dying. Total peace after death, becoming someone else is the best hope I’ve got.
-
Absolutely. Slade! A band that would never bend over.
-
Looking back on the production of 'Nevermind,' I'm embarrassed by it now.' It's closer to a Motley Crue record than it is a punk rock record.
-
I would love to be erased from our association with Pearl Jam or the Nymphs and other first time offenders.

If it's illegal to rock and roll, then throw my ass in jail.

I just hope I don't become so blissful I become boring. I think I'll always be neurotic enough to do something weird.
-
I have very bad posture.
-
I'm a much happier guy than a lot of people think I am.
-
I remember feeling ashamed, for some reason. I was ashamed of my parents. I couldn't face some of my friends at school anymore, because I desperately wanted to have the classic, you know, typical family. Mother, father. I wanted that security, so I resented my parents for quite a few years because of that.

Expression and the right to express is vital, anyone can be artistic.
-
Hope I die before I turn into Pete Townshend.
-
There's nothing more comfortable than a cosy flower pattern.
-
I wanted to have the adoration of John Lennon but have the anonymity of Ringo Starr. I didn't want to be a frontman; I just wanted to be back there and still be a rock and roll star at the same time.
-
Married, Married, Married! Buried! Yeah yeah yeah yeah.
-
I've never considered musical equipment very sacred.
-
My mother encouraged me to be artistic. It was written in a contract at an early age that I would be an artist.

You do learn things and one of them is that happiness has nothing to do with validation from other people, the important thing is being happy with yourself ... finding something that is important to you and sticking with it no matter what anyone says. The truth is you've got to really be tough because there are all kinds of forces that are always trying to get you to do things their way ... trying to tell you that you are throwing your life away if you don't follow their advice.

Jocks have completely taken over music... And just to get back at them, I’m going to start playing basketball.
-
I can’t comment on Soundgarden because I know them personally and I really like them a lot, but I have strong feelings towards Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains and bands like that. They’re obviously just corporate puppets that are just trying to jump on the alternative bandwagon - and we are being lumped into that category.
-
I wasn't thriving socially, so I stayed in my room and played guitar all the time.
-
In Aberdeen, I hated my best friends with a passion, because they were idiots.
-
We were just amazed we were putting out a record. We were, and are, still learning. But we've never cared much for professionalism as long as the energy was there. Like our live shows: We're out of tune and use a lot of feedback. That's not on purpose or because we don't care, we're just musically and rhythmically retarded and we play so hard that we can't tune our guitars fast enough.

I'm really interested in smells. I think I'd like to own a perfumery someday.
