We were watching bands like the Ramones and Blondie and other bands beginning to ignite.

My job is not babysitting people; my job is focusing on making the best band I possibly can.

The packaging has to really sell the product today, because kids can go out and buy a CD and then 10 kids can burn them. So you have to really be on your toes.

I discovered the Clash, the Pistols, obviously the Ramones, Blondie.

We're gonna try and bring on all the different aspects of horror movie making and bring on guests and show all these old '50's B movies. Not the real corny ones, the real cool ones.

Look at all the Misfits products that came out. We never made a dime off it.

I would have hated to been locked into music for the last 20 years and not been able to have a family.

We got dragged through a system and got burned by crooked lawyers, and the list goes on and on.

The Misfits pretty much funds the Misfits. It used to cost me money to be in the band. I think we got paid the last gig we ever did. After that, we had to work to support our families.

It's not how many tickets can we sell, it's where do we want to play, not where should we play to make the most money. We don't really care about that.

It's time to start really writing some stuff, and I really wanted to write some stuff in the vein of the original Misfits, and this was really the first step in that direction.

Self-education is lifelong curiosity.

How much does a man need to survive? two meals a day, one bed for the night and a few sets of clothes. That is all you need in life

Rome ... seems to me the place in the world where one can best dispense with happiness.

Since the insignificance of all things is our lot, we should not bear it as an affliction but learn to enjoy it.

What society needs is broad men sharpened to a point.

People who achieve a sense of meaning in their lives are happier than those who live from one pleasure to another.

Business should be like religion and science; it should know neither love nor hate.

I think for some reason people are drawn to stories of all kinds, for some reason they land harder when they are "true." And yet in fiction, I think there is a lot of deeper truth, too.

Every time I step on the field, I'm going to give my whole heart regardless of the score.

There are libertarian values which say private property is the overarching value, the sanctity thereof, and there are egalitarians who say health care should be shared and so on. That's fair enough.
