Always gotta keep busy or the voices start telling me to do wild things.

Too many people get lost in the game of having a good time and being naive about things.

I also have a recording studio that I use to produce bands.

It's a big shame, because 'Trixter' in my mind were what a real rock n' roll band is all about.

We really put together a great band, and have a great time.

I have known from the beginning one thing you need to know. That is, the music business is a business.

We can get airplay all across the board, from CHR to Active rock.

But we did the best we could and in the end some of us had to get day jobs and start fresh.

The music is fun and all that, but first and foremost it is a business, it's about money.

I think we were always humble.

Just tasking a team to be creative won't get you to be innovative. It's having a corporate climate that gives people the space to experiment and take risks. Only then can you truly sustain it.

It's a bummer sometimes but I always believe that great bands and great music always prevail.

I think people are sick and tired of all the abuse songs, and drug addiction, we want to bring to world a big fat smile.

But either way you cannot deny the sales and what we did.

Always gotta keep busy or the voices start telling me to do wild things.

One of my friends is Snake from Skid Row.

I think there is always room for a timeless sounding rock band like us.

We did not have anyone like a manager, who could guide us and make it happen.

You know, with bands like Kiss back out on the road and Aerosmith coming out, we are going to be a band like that, in the sense that it's a big rock band.

We have an amazing fan base all around the world that love 40FT.

Yeah, man I am going to be writing a book soon. The reality of being in a rock band in the music business'.

Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly until you learn to do it well.

We had gone out on the road in 94 and 95 for a three month American tour, and we realised, as did our manager and booking agent at the time, that we have really exhausted it, and we can't make money at this anymore.

No it wasn't at the time cause you have to remember, I had been playing clubs since I was 13.

It's in the vein, somewhere in a cross between The Beatles, Cheap Trick, The Stones, Badfinger, you know, but it's not retro at all. But it is very pop.

I guess it comes back to the old motto, you have you're fifteen minutes a fame.

Just tasking a team to be creative wont get you to be innovative. Its having a corporate climate that gives people the space to experiment and take risks. Only then can you truly sustain it.

Its not the daily increase but daily decrease. Hack away at the unessential.

Just as playgrounds didn't even make the priority list of most of those responding to Katrina, they all too often slip off the radar of those building our schools, designing our neighborhoods, and drafting government budgets.

I think the fundamental thing about writing fiction is that you write what interests you and what inspires you. It can't be forced. I see no need to write about anything else or any other type of world.

Women never know what they want. Men never know what they have.

The only two things you can truly depend upon are gravity and greed.

Be it a trip to the dentist, getting an injection or even coming home with a good report card, my reward always had to be a book. I didn't care much for anything else.

I wish I could spend six years writing one novel.

In every character I play, I try to imbibe something. Every film is a learning process for me.

The story I get the biggest kick out of is when my name and e-mail appeared on 'Jeopardy' a couple of years ago. My mother was a faithful viewer, and she said she was happy that they finally had an answer she knew the question to.

For me, I think that I don't like feeling pressure from outside sources. I'd rather put the pressure on myself and push myself to do it as good as I can.

To believe something and not live is like making fun of your abilities. You cannot be really trusted if you can dream and doubt its possibility.

My first project was 'Hunchback of Notre Dame'. I co-produced that.

People and squirrels are very different. Most people will not argue that. But I find that there is one situation in which they're very similar. And that is: when I am driving towards them in my car. Then they're kind of hard to tell apart - especially if the human is kind of hairy.

Going blonde is like buying yourself a light bulb!

Why can't there be a lot of great women who are doing great things?

Sometimes a scene works and acting is the easiest thing in the world and you don't have to do much of anything - just enjoy yourself and listen to the other actor. When it doesn't work, then every actor has different ways of dealing with the impasse. Sometimes you use memories from the past. Whatever. It depends from job to job.

We hate our squalor.

Don't be fool's, don't be complacent, and stop being apathetic.

Love yourself first and everything else falls into line. You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.

I've never been very flashy or high-profile.

Imperialism leaves behind germs of rot which we must clinically detect and remove from our land but from our minds as well.

The sharp employ the sharp.
