The other thing that has made playing live for me more enjoyable is the audience. I never knew I had such heartfelt, loving fans.

I view life as a learning experience. It is not so much all about music; it is about what happens when you are doing the music.

I prefer playing in the studio because you have much more control over things.

When you are live you never know what is going to happen.

I love to be creative.

If you don't get on the field and play then you will be missing out.

I have made stage adjustments which allow me to hear myself better onstage so that has made playing live much more enjoyable.

In the past, I have not been able to hear myself. I play with feeling so I need to hear what is coming out of the amplifier to inspire me; I don't just play mechanically.

In order to get somewhere in life, you need to have a vision. The vision brings you to the table. Without a vision, you just do what everybody else does and you are just there.

If everyone would look for that uniqueness then we would have a very colorful world.

If you are a musician and you don't show any interest on the business level then you are actually vulnerable and people will rip you off. They will sweet talk you into anything.

Phil has always been a fighter. He was getting in fights all the time. I told him that if he ever hit me then I would leave the band. He wanted to find out if I was telling him the truth. He hit me so I left and that is how UFO split up.

Even when I was very depressed, I could hold on to something. It seems that I have always had that streak of gold that I could hold on to.

I believe that every person has uniqueness - something that nobody else has.

The music is a personal expression, like art. It is something that you like doing that comes from within, and is an expression that comes from God. That is why artists are beautiful and why people who copy are not really artistic.

I play with feeling so I need to hear what is coming out of the amplifier to inspire me; I don't just play mechanically. I need to hear what I am doing in order to create the next note. If I don't hear it then I can't feed myself.

It would be a dream come true if I could just go from studio to studio and play solos.

Depression is something that makes you lose your sight.

I practiced for at least two hours every day for twenty years, before then I practiced maybe four to five hours a day, and before then 14 hours a day. It was all I had ever done.

If you are in a band like my brother, Rudolf, who is in the Scorpions, then you have a kind of umbrella and you cover each other. You have five people to discuss things with and you are all in the same boat, and therefore make much wiser choices.

I have always known that it comes from deep within myself. I always knew what sound I wanted, and how I wanted to play. I knew everything, it just had to be developed.

I need to hear what I am doing in order to create the next note. If I don't hear it then I can't feed myself.

If you copy then it is not self-expression.

I believe that every person has uniqueness something that nobody else has.

If you copy then it is not self expression.

All literary men are Red Sox fans - to be a Yankee fan in a literate society is to endanger your life.

I'm getting a wider circle of fans now. More women, more middle class people.

You can't compare a Super Bowl crowd, which tends to be more polite and a little more neutral to that. The Super Bowl only has 7,000 to 8,000 fans for each team.

I want to thank all the fans for their support over the years. Keep supporting the Knicks, we're moving in the right direction here and we will be exciting to watch and competing against the best in the NBA. Come back to the Garden for those exciting games.

I couldn't be happier about being a part of 'Hunger Games' and to play Katniss. I have a huge responsibility to the fans of this incredible book and I don't take it lightly. I will give everything I have to these movies and to this role to make it worthy of Suzanne Collins' masterpiece.

I've had a big heart my whole life; all the Korn fans know that. A lot of people told me that I was different.

I listen to the phone-ins on the way home and I know how the fans feel.

They want to know I'm doing good, the fans do.

The attraction, and my particular participation is in being able to communicate with my fans, answer their questions, get a feel for how they respond to Vader.

Liverpool fans were great to me, I still live near the city and they always come up and shake my hand.

To me it's the best trophy you can win and to bring it back for all them fans that have supported us right through would be something special.

I am so excited to let fans in on how important my relationship with my family is to me. I hope to motivate mothers and daughters to build lifetimes of memories together and inspire kids around the world to live their dreams.

Partly because I get such astonishingly nice fans.

I've spent a lot of time researching the subject and government deception. So to be involved in Star Trek is perfect for me. I enjoy meeting the fans and discussing my interests with them.

Canadian hockey fans... They boo me every time I go anywhere. Because I play for Team USA.

I think some fans want everything to stay they same because they want to stay the same.

I know I have sex appeal, but I've never felt like an actual sex symbol. Fans sometimes think I am. The majority of them are sweet about it, but occasionally somebody weird becomes totally fixated upon me.

I want to thank all of the fans and media who made playing in the NFL such a wonderful experience. I have had the pleasure of meeting many of them.

We have sensible fans and sensible policies.

I have quite a lot of fans in Holland because that is where my mother is from, in fact I have a fan club there, and the fans don't always get the chance to see us drive the cars because getting to races across Europe isn't always possible for them.

As I've said, basketball has been, I think, a real cooperative venture. There have been a lot of people that have been involved in it: coaches, administrators - not recently - fans and nobody, nobody any more so than students over the years.

I didn't realize how many true Rockabilly fans there were here in America.

Well, fans always root for the underdog.
