There has been the biggest black cloud following me around. People believe it's all my fault that Steve is not here. He has always had an open door, and he doesn't choose to do this any more.

I haven't stopped playing. If you play all the time, then your chops are up and you tend to grow.

We are taking close to $10 a CD the way we are doing it, and I think that is a fair amount to split up between five guys. Each of us makes like two bucks a record.

World Play is very '70s arena rock, very raw and in your face, and that's what we wanted. We recorded it in a very off-the-cuff manner and didn't really plan out how we were going to play. My solos are first takes.

We are doing what Prince did. Everyone that comes to a show billed as An Evening with Journey will get our new CD. We figured that is our best store because they are our biggest fans.

Beyond the Thunder is the closest I've recorded to an acoustic thing.

I've got the recording process down, and I can knock it out very quickly.

I keep on calling them records because they will always be records to me.

I never got into sports at all until I was in my early 20s, after my music career got going.

During the 1970s and 1980s Gibson did use my likeness, but we never signed anything. This new Signature model is the first time we struck a formal written deal for a guitar with my name on it.

The heavy guitars are the ones that sound good. They are not that comfortable, but they do sound great.

What I have is a bunch of really hungry, amazingly talented guys that can kick anybody's rear end.

Nobody's perfect. Everyone slides here and there, and they have their ups and downs. When they are down, that is not the time to step all over them.

I'm just getting older and better.

There has been the biggest black cloud following me around. People believe it's all my fault that Steve is not here. He has always had an open door, and he doesn't choose to do this any more.

In a lot of aspects it's cooler that we don't have a lot of really overly famous people in the band.

I am not a pop musician; I don't want to play bubble-gummy pop stuff.

The world now knows that Steve Perry is welcome to come and sing with us anytime he wants.

You learn at a certain point that you have to focus on the business side of music. After getting ripped off a couple of times, you figure out that you need to get a grip on it.

I've never done a solo tour. I feel like getting out there and doing that.

The best part was watching Journey grow into this monster. The band was huge, playing these enormous gigs.

When I go out with Journey, it is a complete cakewalk. I can afford my own bus.

I'm not a guy to go in the studio and spend months, let alone years, like some people do. I cannot even be in the studio for a month, it will drive me nuts.

I met the Santana band when I was 14. By the time I was 15, I was a member of the band.

But, after all, we are a young nation, and vanity is a fault of youth.

That's one of our biggest problems, it's always somebody else's fault instead of our own fault.

It's my fault in many cases because I don't initiate the contact to talk with a lot of other musicians.

We don't suggest that because San Francisco lies on top of an earthquake fault that it should be moved.

I think in the wake of Katrina, the Coast Guard may well have been the only entity or agency that came out of that exercise free of fault and free of blame.

Be calm in arguing; for fierceness makes error a fault, and truth discourtesy.

Correct one fault at a time. Concentrate on the one fault you want to overcome.

A woman should say: "Have I made him happy? Is he satisfied? Does he love me more than he loved me before? Is he likely to go to bed with another woman?" If he does, then it's the wife's fault because she is not trying to make him happy.

Nothing would be done at all if one waited until one could do it so well that no one could find fault with it.

The basic fault lines today are not between people with different beliefs but between people who hold these beliefs with an element of uncertainty and people who hold these beliefs with a pretense of certitude.

I think the one thing this picture shows that's new is the psychological disproportion of the kids' demands on the parents. Parents are often at fault, but the kids have some work to do, too.

The absent are never without fault. Nor the present without excuse.

There's man all over for you, blaming on his boots the fault of his feet.

It may be true, that men, who are mere mathematicians, have certain specific shortcomings, but that is not the fault of mathematics, for it is equally true of every other exclusive occupation.

It just broke my heart, and I had to get away from it. I love them to death, but they know how bad it got. It's not their fault, but I couldn't do that any longer.

If you become addicted and a junkie, well, that's your fault.

If I'm in danger then it's usually my fault and it's up to me to get myself out of it. I am not in it just to get an adrenalin rush. No way!

At the same, we need to remain sensitive to the reality that we are still an African society in which the majority of the people and communities live under severe deprivations and afflictions that are no fault of theirs.

Heaven knows that I have done all that a mortal could do, to save the people, and the failure was not my fault, but the fault of others.

The base paths belonged to me, the runner. The rules gave me the right. I always went into a bag full speed, feet first. I had sharp spikes on my shoes. If the baseman stood where he had no business to be and got hurt, that was his fault.

One of the surest evidences of friendship that one individual can display to another is telling him gently of a fault. If any other can excel it, it is listening to such a disclosure with gratitude, and amending the error.

Telling lies is a fault in a boy, an art in a lover, an accomplishment in a bachelor, and second-nature in a married man.

It's very difficult to determine whether this is the fault of the world that has abandoned the Church, or the Church that does not know how to relate to the world.

A fault is fostered by concealment.

If it's never our fault, we can't take responsibility for it. If we can't take responsibility for it, we'll always be its victim.
