Ringo Kid: Well, I guess you can't break out of prison and into society in the same week.
Doc Holliday: [after killing Johnny Ringo] It would appear that the strain was more than he could bear.
We didn't go for music that sounded like blues, or jazz, or rock, or Led Zeppelin, or Rolling Stones. We didn't want to be like any of the other bands.
If you KNOW that you’re FUCKED Then you’re NOT If you think that you’re NOT THEN YOU ARE! Isn’t that lovely? Iambic pentangle?
Anyone who knows the history of the Pete Best Band or the Combo, we were on the verge of breaking in in America. In the mid-'60s, I had great songwriters; we wrote some great stuff.
The malaise and military decline of the post-Vietnam years under President Jimmy Carter set the stage for Russian aggression abroad and uncertainty among our allies.
I think I needed the resilience of approaching my late 30s to come to terms with the resilience I required to learn to sing.
We're charging what we're worth and we don't think we're worth $22.50. We take a lower cut than Pearl Jam.
I wanna survive an avalanche. I wanna be one of those people a dog finds buried under a ton of snow, almost dying of starvation.

It's part of our nature. As much as I love (brother and guitarist Eddie), if you put us in a room with no one else for 15 minutes, we'd be at each other's throats.
As much as we love playing the small clubs, we'd really like to get ourselves in front of a larger audience. I'm not talking about arenas or anything, but nice theaters and larger clubs.
I don't care what anybody says about Ringo. I cut my rock-n-roll teeth listening to him.
Nirvana was like that- Nirvana was like the only band to come out of that- it was like the same thing, Seattle was like this whole scene and it was like this big scene that was thrust upon America.
People are trying to live freely outside of, or within a system that maybe for them on a day-to-day level isn't as free... I definitely think we're positively orientated.
We like where we live and we wanna participate in our neighbourhoods and communities and stuff and try to- we're not like benevolent- it's pretty basic.
You look at the fact that for millions of years species on earth have been developing and we've been knocking them off at like a hundred a day.
Our studio is kind of built into our home, so it's a place you can ramble, and we can do a pretty good recording here. The band is really comfortable her.
