I do like Marylin Manson, actually. I think, he's very talented and he did make some great music.

There are basically two categories of music: Metal and bullshit.

If heavy metal bands ruled the world, we'd be a lot better off.

We're better than Metallica. We're better musicians, better players. Put it this way, they can try to walk onstage after an Iron Maiden show if they want.

I find that fencing and training give me more stamina and help me deal with the craziness of being on the road so much.

Life is too short to do the things you don't love doing.

Everything you need to know about Iron Maiden is onstage.

Iron Maiden is an institution, and I'm delighted that I'm involved in it, but there was a time that I wasn't delighted so I quit.

Some of Eminem's rap songs kind of have the teenage love songs like the fifties love songs. It's kind of like domestic drama set to music. He is really good storyteller.

Rock music should be gross: that's the fun of it. It gets up and drops its trousers.

My dad always told me, 'I don't care what you do. Just aim to be the best at it. Even if it's the world's best window cleaner.'

I look at people who aren’t us and I hate them.

Life has always been a matter of putting one's feet down carefully

If I lift any weights, I do it more for explosion, but I really use my body weight to build up muscle and strength.

Oh you’re heist-drunk Kitty Kat. And you have been since the Henley.

Don't make a whole to-do about it. Don't get down on yourself be- cause you're not an expert rower; don't start reading too many books in order to do it right.

Talk is cheap...It is the way we organize and use our lives everyday that tells what we believe in.

In the classical spiritual definition, a soul mate is someone that you have reincarnated with many times. You find each other in many lifetimes.

I think, to a great degree, we humans still divide ourselves into two species, even though we are monotypic. There are males and females. We see them as different and not equal.

I was forced to grow up quicker than most. I was forced to be a young man at a young age.

All of our energy should be in sacrifice and services. Suffering, at least.
