Quotes:
"Whether I'm in jail or in a rehab or just half-dead somewhere, I always have an innate sensation
that says, 'You're going to get out of this mess.' That can be a good thing or a bad thing; it gives you carte blanche to
explore areas you have no business going into."
"To all of our beautiful fans out there, we love you, and get ready cause' were far from done,
we beleive the future holds bigger things than the past"
"If anybody thinks that i rehearse what i do or say, well this person doesn't know me well."
"We just go out and try to do whatever feels natural. It's not scripted, but it's not disgusting,
hey lets go have a great time and be extra spontaneous and be Mr. Party-party-party-party-party-party all the time."
''Everyone hated me for not being at (Hillel Slovak's) funeral. They were like, 'His best friend
and you weren't there'. And I was like, 'Yeah, but I was dying too..' ''
"actually..im on the toilet"(to a reporter in an over the phone interview)
"Every stupid thing I did, I'm proud of it!"
