I know that the gift that God gave me isn't gonna just wither up and die unless I let it die, so it's a matter of me having the faith that it's gonna come out. Whether or not the public's gonna like it is another story. But I think as long as I keep changing and sticking to what I really love - and the same goes for Steven and the other guys in the band - then people are gonna like it.

I just pretended I was someone else until that someone else became me.

I'm glad that I never ended up killing myself, though I came close more times than I would like to admit.
Joe Perry Aerosmith -
I like the idea all memory is fiction, that we have queued a couple of things in the back of our minds and when we call forth those memories, we are essentially filling in the blanks. We're basically telling ourselves a story, but that story changes based on how old we are, and what mood we're in, and if we've seen photographs recently. We trust other people to tell us the story of our lives before we can remember it, and usually that's our parents and usually it works, but obviously not always. And everybody's interpretation is going to be different.

Seems like the light at the end of the tunnel may be you.

I ran into Axl [Rose] at a club some year ago and told him he's crazy, we all miss them, and he needs to get the band back together.

I don't need to speak...I play the guitar!

There are guys in country music who are wizards on the guitar. If you're a country fan, you're used to it. But as a rock guitar player, you listen.

Steven and Joe just weren't around, they were locked away in their rooms consuming whatever they were consuming. We were still functioning. We still got up in the morning. So Tom, Joey, and I had a lot of time together.
Brad Whitford Aerosmith -
I never envisioned what I was doing as part of a career.

The secret to enlightenment is to lighten up. Whether you are talking rock or women, all there.

Imagine taking off your makeup and nobody knows who you are.

I love every bone in a woman's body, especially mine.

I remember the first guy who offered me a joint in the bathroom. I said 'No, man, I've got enough problems.'
Steven Tyler Aerosmith -
Life's a journey, not a destination.
Steven Tyler Aerosmith -
But most of all, the train that kept rollin' all night long of rock n' roll you cannot kill. It will live forever.

I'm grateful for the road. It gets me in shape. I feel like I'm 25 years old after ther first or second week.

So study your rock history, son. That be the Bible of the Blues.
Steven Tyler Aerosmith -
You know...sometimes I'll be looking out at the audience and I'll be in the middle of a song, and I'll just stop dead. I'll look out at them, and think what is this... There's one thing that keeps me doing it though, I really love it, I believe in it.

I do that a lot of authors still do not do is allow people to write directly to me. I get about 50 fan letters a day, and I answer every single one of them myself. It takes a lot of time and sometimes it's a pain in the neck and I answer the same questions over and over. But the truth is these people come to my readings clutching these letters saying, "You wrote me back. I can't believe you wrote me back", and I think it really means a lot for them to know that the author values them just as much as they value the author.

It's as clear as the balls on a tall dog.
