“When there’s so much left to do, why spend your time focusing on things you’ve already done, counting trophies or telling stories about the good old days?”

Through Kurt I saw the beauty of minimalism and the importance of music that’s stripped down.

Your personal history is a part of what happens with your hands and your head as you play music.

The most important thing for me is my family, and my health and happiness, and making sure everyone’s cool.

Never lose faith in real rock and roll music. Never lose faith in that. You might have to look a little harder, but it’s always going to be there.

I think people should feel encouraged to be themselves.

There’s always gonna be rock n’ roll bands, there’s always gonna be kids that love rock n’ roll records, and there will always be rock n’ roll.

There’s nothing I’d rather do than make music. It’s the love of my life.

Singing into a microphone and learning to play an instrument and learning to do your craft, that’s the most important thing for people to do.

If there’s one thing I’m good at, it’s gathering people together to do something fun.

That’s one of the great things about music. You can sing a song to 85,000 people and they’ll sing it back for 85,000 different reasons.

If it weren’t for the Beatles, I would not be a musician.

How come drummers leave their drumsticks on the dashboard of their car? So they can park in the handicapped spaces.

The human element of making music is what’s most important.

I’ve experienced great things, I’ve experienced great tragedies. I’ve done almost everything I could possibly ever imagine doing, but I just know that there’s more.

You look up to your heroes and you shouldn’t be intimidated by them; you should be inspired by them.

Being in Nirvana was amazing an experience that will never happen again for me. And I look on them as some of the best and worst times of my life.

It’s not life that counts but the fortitude you bring into it.

I have imbibed such a love for money that I keep some sequins in a drawer to count, and cry over them once a week.

Right now, vee was the only person i could count on. She could be obnoxious,annoying, and lazy, but she never lied to me.

Excellence is being able to perform at a high level over and over again. You can hit a half-court shot once. That’s just the luck of the draw. If you consistently do it… that’s excellence.

Man is such a wondrous being that it is never possible to count up all his merits at once. The more you study him, the more new particulars appear, and their description would be endless.

I saw the Count lying within the box upon the earth, some of which the rude falling from the cart had scattered over him. He was deathly pale, just like a waxen image, and the red eyes glared with the horrible vindictive look which I knew so well.

Before I left the castle I so fixed its entrances that never more can the Count enter there Undead.

It is no harder for anyone to test this than it is for me to say it is false, since no one is prevented from counting teeth.
