More quotes by David Lee Roth
Stick your head above the crowd and eventually somebody will throw a rock at it.
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
It's always irritated me that people say, 'Where's the action? Oh wow, there's no action here let's go somewhere else.' These people will never find the action.
David Lee Roth
Well a good writer writes, a good musician listens to a lot more than he actually composes, and if you're going to do lyrics - well, there's a Freudian slip. That's not even a slip, that's a Freudian move: I said going to do lyrics. If you really want it to ring true, you'll live it first. Go really get your heart broken!
David Lee Roth
Audience participation should extend from on-stage to backstage to under the stage

My ambition is to further create a signature sound, a signature spirit, that makes some kind of contribution to music in general.
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
I used to have a drug problem, but now I have enough money.
David Lee Roth
A song without a hook is like a train without rails. It skitters all over the place, bangs into everything. Boom! Crash! There goes Grand Central Station. Crushed by a train.
David Lee Roth
Rock & roll is not so much a question of electric guitars as it is striped pants.
David Lee Roth
When I die, sprinkle my ashes over the 80's.
David Lee Roth
I think the two most difficult things to deal with in life are failure and success
David Lee Roth
You've got to roll with the punches to get to what's real.
David Lee Roth
You want a hero in the music world? James Brown. He brought a feeling to music without really using words. He's just famous for his sound.
David Lee Roth
If you subtracted all of the great artists who never drank, who never went to excess, you wouldn't have any more art left. What kind of poem are you gonna get out of a glass of iced tea?
David Lee Roth
A lot of rock bands are truly a legend in their own minds.
David Lee Roth
The world's a stage, and I want the brightest spot.
David Lee Roth
It doesn't matter the kind of music, it doesn't matter whether it's a cowboy hat or a yarmulke. I don't care if it's outer space or pop, the spirit is the same.
David Lee Roth
In the United States, you can put on a cowboy hat and join the country-western neighborhood. If you're down below 14th Street in New York City, that's bohemian that's left-wing.
