More quotes by David Lee Roth
Give me a glazed doughnut, and a bottle of anything... to go!
David Lee Roth
He who knows how will always work for he who knows why.
David Lee Roth
Women are great. When they dig you, there's nothing they won't do. That kind of loyalty is hard to find - unless you've got a good dog.
David Lee Roth
The world's a stage, and I want the brightest spot.
David Lee Roth
A lot of rock bands are truly a legend in their own minds.
David Lee Roth
I know that people think I'm a party king but, face it, if I finished the bottle every time I took a drink, I wouldn't be able to do the aerials I do onstage.
David Lee Roth
When you get something like MTV, it's like regular television. You get it, and at first it's novel and brand new and then you watch every channel, every show. And then you become a little more selective and more selective, until ultimately... you wind up with a radio.
David Lee Roth
I'm not conceited. Conceit is a fault and I have no faults.
David Lee Roth
I can teach you to jump up in five seconds-it takes years to learn how to land properly.
David Lee Roth
I live and breathe and do four times as much four times as fast as anyone else.
David Lee Roth
Maybe I'm like acts of Congress or your favorite Chinese restaurant - you don't really want to know what's going on behind the door. I'm a real study in contrast, I expect, looking from without. But it adds up to what you get on stage.
David Lee Roth
Nine times out of 10 when people do a tribute album or tribute songs for somebody, it's what I call 'white boys playing reggae'. They know they can't, we know they can't, so they sing like they can't and play like they can't. They gently make fun of the idiom or sing in a false accent.
David Lee Roth
Classic Van Halen made people want to dance and f**k. Modern Van Halen makes you want to drink milk and drive foreign cars.
David Lee Roth
People say that life is a cesspool of darkness and dispair. Well we of Van Halen are sailing through it in a yacht!
David Lee Roth
Whether I'm on for a day or whether I'm on for a year, at the end of the day, I sing for my dinner.
David Lee Roth
When I die, sprinkle my ashes over the 80's.
David Lee Roth
The light you see at the end of the tunnel is the front of an oncoming train.
David Lee Roth
I used to have a drug problem, but now I have enough money.
David Lee Roth
Rock & roll is not so much a question of electric guitars as it is striped pants.
David Lee Roth
You know what rock musicians are? They are hung up, neurotic, over-weight hippies with sex problems.
