Nobody sets out to make a bad record.

The Beatles will never get back together and David Lee Roth will never again sing with Van Halen.

On a personal level, we all get along fine.

Yeah, we have our differences, but we put those aside, and now we're making music. It's great.

Whatever our personal differences are, there are no bigger fans of this band than the people who are in this band.

There is a volatile mix, and that's because we're all intense. And there's no denying that.

We're very needy people, you know.

Sammy and I got together and it was like we hadn't missed a beat.

Some things are impossible.

At our age, you don't want to stop.

It's unfortunate nine years were in between - you can't take that time back; you can't undo it.

When the tour is done, that's the end of the U.S. tour. We'll regroup and see what we're going to do.

When you leave the planet, you leave music behind.

Nobody sets out to make a bad record.

It's part of our nature. As much as I love (brother and guitarist Eddie), if you put us in a room with no one else for 15 minutes, we'd be at each other's throats.

You don't leave behind box office scores or how many dollars changed hands.

Van Halen is a work in progress.

There's nothing worse than having everybody thinking alike, talking alike and having the same direction in mind. It gets stale that way.

Music is a dialogue.

We're having a blast. Just four friends getting together.

Everybody has a high point and a lot goes into that: timing, situation, general consciousness.

You come to the planet with nothing and you leave with nothing, so you'd better do some good while you are here.

Meaning that if you live in the moment, so to speak, we play today, and tonight we're done.

We don't mature momentarily, but over the long-term.

I do have a really good memory. I mean, like, I can remember all the phone numbers of everybody on the street I grew up on.

The things that you saw earlier in your life generally have more power than the things you saw last week.

What we have done, the result of that comes to us whenever it comes, either today, tomorrow, hundred years later, hundred lives later, whatever, whatever. And so, it's our own karma. That is why that philosophy in every religion: Killing is sin. Killing is sin in every religion.

When being in a relationship hurts you leave. Dont stay and keep drowning because love isnt suppose to be painful.

In Argentina, we're surrounded by polo ponies. The farm covers roughly 170 hectares, and there are no cattle or sheep, just horses.

For years, I was compared to Wookiees, especially after I did the 'Star Wars Holiday Special.' I have some photos of me with a few of the Wookiees on the set, and it's hard to tell us apart.

I do quite naughty things now. I do like to be a bit sexy.

Prayer is man's greatest power!

So I went into jazz and performed in jazz clubs all over the country.

We spend more time developing means of escaping our troubles than we do solving the troubles were trying to escape from.

When I give notes on a script, I say, 'Guys, I may drift, but it's part of the process.' So I'm aware that I'm drifting, but I'm grabbing a lot of stuff.

Performing for Dick Van Dyke once was fun.

I tried to work with a record label; I tried to work with a booking agency, variety shows. I went to Vegas. I just tried everything I could think of, and nothing took. No one thought there was a place for my style and my music; it was just too different.

Mind your ps and qs.

I took up writing to escape the drudgery of that every day cubicle kind of war.

Politeness is the art of choosing among ones real thoughts.

Women have been such an important part of my life. I try, every day, to be a better father to my daughters and a better husband.

Courage is not the absence of fear it is the conquest of it.

The process to generate energy using the Canadian tar sands is particularly dirty, producing one of the most noxious fossil fuels on the planet and leaving a devastated landscape in its wake.

Any time is a good time to start a company.

I have to say, without sounding like a total tosser, that everything I've learned in life, and that has taken me out of my natural interior life, has been with men. They exposed me to things that I wasn't aware of. I learned from all the guys.

A lot of television shows, when you see births, the baby is coming out, and the wife is freaking, 'You did this to me!' but she is still super beautiful. There's none of the realism that we just went through.

I played didgeridoo from a young age - on the vacuum cleaner, initially.
