There's always something going on, but thank goodness these days it's with a clear head, which helps me massively.

You gotta look beyond the mainstream... the mainstream'll drown you, you know? There's always a pulse in the underground that I love. And the pulse in the underground is what keeps heavy metal alive.

I tried to take heavy metal... and balled it up and chopped it in half and really tried to create a new form of energy. I really tried to re-shape extreme music as I see it through my eyes.

You're always going to have detractors, and you're always going to have people who love you, and that's how it's perfectly balanced and the world spins on.

When I die bury me in smoke.

In my better sense of mind, I know that Im far from alone and far from the worst, and the earth keeps spinning. Everything keeps moving, with or without me.

I don't care at all about the mainstream; I don't care about popularity contests; I don't care about who's got the biggest-selling album; and I don't care about glossy production.

I'm a bad pessimist. I don't think about how successful any record I've ever done is going to do before it came out.

To me, I'm for a band whose forefront is the music.

I am the type that cannot stay put in living in the past and solely in the past. It's not healthy and it doesn't feel right.

I won't lie to you and make you believe what's evil, is making love, and making friends, and meeting God your own way... the RIGHT way.

Very soon the world too will see what GOD sees in you.

Love took prisoners no matter what the circumstances

I never wonder to see men wicked, but I often wonder to see them not ashamed.

Sad times May follow your tracks, Bad times May bar you from Saks, Add times When Satan in slacks Breaks down your self control.

Strategic partners are way more important than money.

I really like working. I can't think of a job I didn't like.

Lack of homework shows up in the marketplace as well as in the classroom.

Criticism of the commitment of religion to the supernatural is thus positive in import.

Whatever the soul knows how to seek, it cannot fail to obtain.

To character and success, two things, contradictory as they may seem, must go together... humble dependence on God and manly reliance on self.
