I’d just like to say that I have a personal disgust for small dogs, like poodles. I have some serious physical problems with them. Everything about them means I must kill them. I must.

AXL ROSELife sucks, but in a beautiful kind of way.
AXL ROSEWe are made up of two contrasting ideals: Love And Fear. Pick One and Live.
AXL ROSEIf I hadn’t had Freddie Mercury’s lyrics to hold on to as a kid I don’t know where I would be. It taught me about all forms of music… it would open my mind. I never really had a bigger teacher in my whole life.
AXL ROSEBe bitter, stay angry, and blame everyone!
AXL ROSEI like feeling a sense of unity with the crowd even though everybody might be thinking something different.
AXL ROSEPeople can do whatever they want to, but I’m more pro-hetero. I’m not knocking it – I have friends that are gay. It’s just that it’s not my cup of tea, l guess. That’s all. People can do what they want.
AXL ROSEThere was a much more self-destructive nature in ‘Appetite.’ It was a going-for-it-at-all-cost thing that worked then.
AXL ROSEI feel I have a responsibility to myself, a responsibility to explain where we’re coming from. Because a song or the performance of a song is a lot like a work of art.
AXL ROSEI don’t even know my own phone number.

AXL ROSEI personally don’t do any hard drugs, because they get in the way of me getting to my base issues, and I’d rather get rid of the excess baggage than find a way to shove it deeper in the closet.
AXL ROSEI discovered I scream the same way whether I’m about to be devoured by a great white shark or if a piece of seaweed touches my foot.
AXL ROSEIf love is blind I guess I’ll buy myself a cane.
AXL ROSEI write the vocals last, because I wanted to invent the music first and push the music to the level that I had to compete against it.
