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.

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.

Power without abuse loses its charm.

I would certainly choose my jobs depending on the actions of the character. I won't do anything that has to do with child abuse or women's abuse.

We expect teachers to handle teenage pregnancy, substance abuse, and the failings of the family. Then we expect them to educate our children.

What 'jazz' means to me is the worst kind of working conditions, the worst in cultural prejudice. The term 'jazz' has come to mean the abuse and exploitation of black musicians.

I want people to realize that the domestic abuse charges happened in 1989. I didn't meet any of them until 1993.

Terrorism is in good part an effective government propaganda; it serves to deflect attention from governmental abuse toward a mostly imagined, highly dangerous outside enemy.

So at the end of the day, our number 1 goal, our top priority, is to motivate American youngsters to reject the abuse of illegal drugs, tobacco and alcohol. All three of them are illegal behaviors.

The U.S. government has in recent years fought what it termed wars against AIDs, drug abuse, poverty, illiteracy and terrorism. Each of those wars has budgets, legislation, offices, officials, letterhead - everything necessary in a bureaucracy to tell you something is real.

Rape, mutilation, abuse, and theft are the natural outcome of a world in which force rules, in which human beings are objects.

By finding waste and abuse in entitlement programs, and eliminating it, we can ensure that the funds that are put into these programs go to the people that need them the most.

Somebody said to me this morning, 'To what do you attribute your longevity?' I don't know. I mean, I couldn't have planned my life out better. By all accounts I should be dead! The abuse I put my body through: the drugs, the alcohol, the lifestyle I've lived the last 30 years!

Anyone entrusted with power will abuse it if not also animated with the love of truth and virtue, no matter whether he be a prince, or one of the people.

The stated mission at the time was simply to use the influence of the entertainment industry to do an accurate portrayal of drug and alcohol abuse. We all admit that we're not trying to censor anybody.

This October, we renew the fight against domestic violence and abuse in America. Together, we can eliminate domestic violence from homes across the country and ensure that our children grow up in healthy, peaceful communities.

I've always had a natural fear of the police, or abuse of their power.

For if there is anything to one's praise, it is foolish vanity to be gratified at it, and if it is abuse - why one is always sure to hear of it from one damned good-natured friend or another!

Use, don't abuse.

Let's suppose somebody abused you sexually. You still had a choice, though not a good one, about what to tell yourself about the abuse.

I think the dangers are different now. Our abuse of the planet and our resources is an anxiety.

There was a reason my first substantial role after rehab was to play a maniac whose personal story ended badly. I knew what it was like to go those dark places. I played a guy who died as a result of his abuse.

Bush sees the evil as out there in the wider world, residing in people who 'hate freedom'. Look at his immediate response to the pictures of prisoner abuse; this is not what Americans do, these are not our values.

Power is what men seek and any group that gets it will abuse it.
