Every time I hit rock bottom, My Jesus picks me up,That why….. I praise Him so.

Even a rock moves on.

I guess my music taste is pretty predictable: I like new indie rock stuff, older stuff.

Again Sam’s genitals became rock, and this astonished him as much as anything. Through Franz, he was becoming the stone Earth; the final border separating him from the planet was disappearing. And this transformation to...

There seems to be an inclination among rock musicians to be very carefree with money, but I negotiate the best flight and hotel deals on our tours to maximise the band’s income – I don’t...

The only people playing the roles of classic rock stars are hip-hop artists, now. Kanye’s stage persona, and the way he approaches making albums, and the way he wants to be better than everyone else?...

We are Darwin’s confetti. Some of us fall on bare rock. No matter how good you are, you can fail spectacularly. Just because you were at the wrong place at the wrong time. Or just...

I mean, you want the truth as you wanna hear it? I can’t do that. You couldn’t afford me.

When I think of artists that I would have loved to work with, it’s Jimi Hendrix. And Steve McQueen. He’s not a rock star, but he’s kind of a rock star to me.

I’m introverted, and I pay attention to my muse… Record companies used to go mad and say ‘We don’t know the deal with you. You have no continuity at all. You give us ‘Addicted to...

I think you sometimes have to go hit rock bottom before you can grow and rebuild as a person.

Rock & roll was the only thing I wanted to get into.

There’s something advantageous about being a woman in rock versus, say, a woman in chemistry or construction. There’s definitely a built-in sexism across the board, but I think you’re afforded a degree of freedom in...

I like to dress pretty basic during the day, but with a sophisticated bohemian spin, and sometimes a little rock chic. At night I like to go glamorous.

The thing about punk is that there are purists. Once you start going outside of that, they don’t think what you’re doing is punk rock.

I have to make rock records occasionally.

Strike the rock and the water will flow; don’t wait to brag about why you alone can hit the rock for water to flow; just go and do it because the world is thirsty! Your...

I was in lots of dodgy bands growing up and I always fancied myself in a band. But, you know, I was rubbish at writing music. So maybe one day I’ll play a rock star,...

I done wrestled with an alligator, I done tussled with a whale; handcuffed lightning, thrown thunder in jail; only last week, I murdered a rock, injured a stone, hospitalised a brick; I’m so mean I...

The guitar is such an incredible instrument; it plays classical, flamenco, jazz, country, bluegrass, rock, acid, blues. You’ll never see a clarinet playing Black Sabbath. But you will see a guitar in a clarinet band...

It was the era of Tab Hunter and Rock Hudson; they all had a certain look.

These mountains appear to be almost entirely composed of stratas of rock of various colours (mostly red) and are partially covered with a dwarfish growth of pine and cedar, which are the only species of...

If the Police could do a reunion… One of the biggest jerks I ever met was Sting. If he can do it, then anyone can do it. It’s not that big a deal. And the...

I’m touched by rock n’ roll. I’m touched by the Beatles. I want some of the music I do to reflect that.

I think that for the highest achievements nowadays… need to have the stable as a rock scientific base. And also need to own modesty.

I don’t have a model’s body. But I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m okay with what I have. I can rock this body, you know?

I would love it if ‘Community’ could have a trajectory like ’30 Rock’ and choose when to go out.

I got tired of the Ramones around the time I quit and I really got into rap. I thought it was the new punk rock. LL Cool J was my biggest idol.

As a performing group, the Beatles began by playing old rock favorites, for dancing, to tough audiences in Liverpool and Hamburg. When they began writing seriously, they discovered that they couldn’t compose in the early...

Bon Jovi’s trick is to use heavy-metal chords and still sound absolutely safe. Rock & roll used to be rebellion disguised as commercialism; now so much of it is commercialism disguised as rebellion.

By now all rock bands are wise enough to be suspicious of music industry scum.

There’s all these musicians in the world, and anybody that takes enough time to create a record or even think about the fantasy of rock & roll, it’s a vulnerable place to be in, it’s...

Triple 6 Mafia and Mystikal in Atlanta was one of my first shows. I remember how sweaty and smashed up everybody was, and it was so punk rock.

If every choice you make comes from an honest place, you’re solid, and nothing anybody can say about you can rock you or change your opinion.

The most influential thing was the two Chris Rock specials that came out when I was in high school. I was obsessed with that stuff.

Everything has a natural explanation. The moon is not a god, but a great rock, and the sun a hot rock.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame traditionally has had a management style that is very supportive of American talent, first and foremost, over everything else. And I think that’s right and proper.

My roots and Victor’s are jazz, basically, but these two young fellows that we have with us come out of rock bands. And they’re tremendously exciting players.

Things that make me laugh range from a wonderful stand-up like Jerry Seinfeld, Louis C.K. and Chris Rock to my son Gabe, who does great improv work. I also look backwards to the great comedic...

I think probably one of the coolest things was when I went to play basketball at Rucker Park in Harlem. First of all, who would think that Larry the Cable Guy would go to Harlem...

A pet rock is a serious commitment and too much responsibility for a ten year old to handle on his own

Some of us can be examples about going ahead and growing, and some of us, unfortunately, don’t make it there, and end up being examples because they had to die. I hit rock bottom, but...

Everybody has forgotten about showmanship. People don’t look like rock stars any more. They just look like regular dudes off the street.

I’m a rock god? I’m five foot seven. I had me jaw broken, and so my chin stuck way out. That’s how I became tough – I learned to pick up anything and fight back…...

I’m actually sometimes nervous right before a performance, but as soon as I’m on the stage I’m like, ‘okay, we’re gonna rock this baby.’

Before, models had that rock star life and it was all about going to the parties and having that glamorous life, and I think these days, models are more like businesswomen and the whole industry...

A lot of punk rock is not going to be in the mainstream. It’s below the radar. The beauty of it is that you’re not supposed to always know. It’s subterranean.

Rock stars wanting to write is even worse than wanting to act in movies, right?

I wear a tinfoil suit, because you never know when you’ll be going to the moon. I’ll probably have more luck finding the love of my life on a lonely and dead space rock.

There are so many different people that I’ve emulated vocally. In the rock world – Sebastian Bach, Vince Neil, Freddie Mercury, Robert Plant. They all had amazing vocal talent.
