I wanted to do the whole album in black and white, and it really killed me that when you see it in the light it's got green in it. I don't know what the hell that was about.

I am affected by what is around. I don't think many people would admit that.

My current project is my band, Population 1. We are writing, rehearsing and playing in Los Angeles.

Who needs fan mail when you have the Internet?

Half the bands I guarantee wouldn't at this point want Nuno to open for them.

Having a baby is one of the most wonderful things in your life, as well as the hardest thing in your life.

Even with Extreme, I don't think you have a choice but to sort of have somewhat of an influence of the times.

The touring part is really mixed. You love to play and you can't wait to go, but you don't want to leave.

I always imagine later on these songs I could've played with a band, but it never worked out that way.

I definitely get affected by new stuff. There's a lot of older influences, but there's also newer stuff too.

As opposed to touring for three years and then going into the studio and writing an album, I think this record is representative of a lot of everyday people.

Obviously the biggest change is that it's me by myself. When you don't have another band interpreting your songs or playing them the way that they have, it's bound to sound different.

Live are a really good band. I like Stone Temple Pilots, Radiohead I love. Even Oasis.

I think I'm a music fan before anything else.

When you are in this business and this career, it's hard for any one thing to engulf you.

It's just a bunch of songs. I'm not trying to cure any major disease.

As much as you put into it is as much as you get out of it.

I never record anything like a demo, I just go for it.

There's two facets to writing a song. There's you sitting in your room writing the sentiments of the song; the lyrics, the melody and the changes, and then there's the part where you go into the studio and you put clothing on it.

It's hard to know exactly what it sounds like to me. I'm in the studio and I write it. and that's it.

I wanted to do the whole album in black and white, and it really killed me that when you see it in the light it's got green in it. I don't know what the hell that was about.

A band is like a marriage - you don't know why it works, but when it does, everything feels right.

Having a baby is one of the most wonderful things in your life as well as the hardest thing in your life.

Hell, if I'd jumped on all the dames I'm supposed to have jumped on, I'd have had no time to go fishing.

What the hell difference does it make, left or right? There were good men lost on both sides.

A worker's paradise is a consumer's hell.

There's an inherent thing in me where, if things are going too smooth, I'll sabotage the hell out of them, just to make the music more of a sanctuary.

The Clinton administration launched an attack on people in Texas because those people were religious nuts with guns. Hell, this country was founded by religious nuts with guns. Who does Bill Clinton think stepped ashore on Plymouth Rock?

I just had one of those "what the hell are we doing" moments.

Mankind is not likely to salvage civilization unless he can evolve a system of good and evil which is independent of heaven and hell.

Capitalism without bankruptcy is like Christianity without hell.

Looking back, I think we were all quite mature, surprisingly responsible. In earlier wars, boys of our age had just gone off to raise hell or enlist or both, but we stayed dutifully at our desks doing tomorrow's homework.

As memory may be a paradise from which we cannot be driven, it may also be a hell from which we cannot escape.

It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, more vengeance, more desolation. War is hell.

Hell hath no fury like a liberal scorned.

How well I have learned that there is no fence to sit on between heaven and hell. There is a deep, wide gulf, a chasm, and in that chasm is no place for any man.

I would rather my soul broil in hell than I do you any harm.

In Hell all the messages you ever left on answering machines will be played back to you.

I'm not a humanitarian, I'm a hell-raiser.

I believe that I am in hell, therefore I am there.

Why? Will no man ever do something without a why? Just like that? For the hell of it?

Our little house was way back in the country. We had one house close to us, and hell the next one would've been a mile. If you got sick, you could holler and wouldn't nobody hear you.

If neurotic is wanting two mutually exclusive things at one and the same time, then I'm neurotic as hell. I'll be flying back and forth between one mutually exclusive thing and another for the rest of my days.

I never did give anybody hell. I just told the truth and they thought it was hell.

The compact which exists between the North and the South is a covenant with death and an agreement with hell.

Christianity supplies a Hell for the people who disagree with you and a Heaven for your friends.

There is many a boy here today who looks on war as all glory, but, boys, it is all hell.

There's nothing wrong with being gay. I have plenty of friends who are going to hell.

If the world were a bar, America would currently be the angry drunk waving around a loaded gun. Yeah, the other people in the bar may be afraid of him, but they sure as hell don't respect him.
