David Lee Roth is a quote machine:

"I used to have a drug problem, now I make enough money."

"People ask me how far I've come. And I tell them twelve feet: from the audience to the stage."

"Money can't buy you happiness, but it can buy you a yacht big enough to pull up right alongside it."

"Music is like girlfriends to me; I'm continually astonished by the choices other people make."

"The world's a stage, and I want the brightest spot."

“I used to jog but the ice cubes kept falling out of my glass.”

"I am not this way, the way I am, because I'm in a band. I'm in a band because I'm this way"

"There are three rings to marriage: the engagement ring, the wedding ring and the suffering"

"I was with a girl not terribly long ago and she said "Mr. Roth, I
think you're the oldest person I've ever been with." I said "Honey I
was gonna say the same thing to you."

"What are the characteristics of a good rock'n'roller? Rock'n'roll is
in you. You either got it or you don't. You can't fake it. It has to be
inside you just itching to get out. And when it does, POW! It's like a
dam bursting. That's Van Halen."

"I think that's broke, man; I think you just leave it on broil." —Vinnie Paul

10. Sometimes you got to get sick before you can feel better.
    
11. You can't be a Real Country unless you have a BEER and an airline - it helps if you have some kind of a football team or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a BEER.
    
12. There will never be a nuclear war; there's too much real estate involved.
    
13. Consider for a moment any beauty in the name Ralph.

30. Information is not knowledge. Knowledge is not wisdom. Wisdom is not truth. Truth is not beauty. Beauty is not love. Love is not music. Music is THE BEST.
    
31. Beauty is a pair of shoes that makes you wanna die.
    
32. The creation and destruction of harmonic and 'statistical' tensions is essential to the maintenance of compositional drama. Any composition (or improvisation) which remains consonant and 'regular' throughout is, for me, equivalent to watching a movie with only 'good guys' in it, or eating cottage cheese.

I was just about to say this. This guy is always on and funny. To this day, someone should follow him around with a tape recorder.

I was looking at his MySpace page the other day and it's full of classic Dave:

"Me? Well you already know who I am. I'm the toastmaster general of the immoral majority.....I've been places with my face you wouldn't go with a pistol......I'm the Wizard in the land of Oz.......how 'bout a little fire scarecrow?"

Here's one that's always stuck with me through the years:

"If you're lucky enough to get what you want, shut up." - Paul Stanley

We are only trying to show people how smurfed up poop is. - Suicide Silence
