Dude, if you want to be a great musician, you have to try heroin. You'll see. It's like being back in the womb.

We all lose our looks eventually, better develop your character and interest in life.

I didn't like the way I was let go from Metallica.

Clearly see you can't see Clear

The guitar influence that affected my songwriting came from the New Wave of British Heavy Metal.

My first impression of Van Halen was that David Lee Roth was a god, and that so was Eddie.

Megadeth is a legend, and I'm not gonna cheapen it like some of these bands that keep going long after they should.

Mogami cable is durable and flexible enough to practically build a suspension bridge with but I'll settle for using it for my guitars and amps!

I'm not a great singer

It wasn't enough for Megadeth to do well; I wanted Metallica to fail.

We got a new song called 'Ashes in Your Mouth,' and it is NOT about a joint falling apart.

Besides, the bass isn't a difficult instrument to play. It's like one step up from the kazoo, isn't it?

When people in Washington say they're going to take away my guns, they better bring theirs if they're going to take mine.

Penelope Spheeris is a wonderful lady. She's a very talented director, and I curse better because of her.

Military intelligence, two words combined that cant make sense

I collect books and I have some really, really old schoolbooks, and God is mentioned on every single page.

What do I bring to the Democratic National Convention that other reporters don't? Hair.

If you shake my hand, better count your fingers

When I left New York, after getting fired from Metallica, all I remember is that I wanted blood. Theirs.
