More quotes by David Lee Roth
Critics like Elvis Costello because critics are like Elvis Costello.
David Lee Roth
You want to know if we're animals? When I'm on stage with the volume rippling my body like a glass of water and thousands of people are generating heat in my direction, there's no time for thought. My basement facilities take over completely. Sure it's animal. People might like to talk about art, but look where art is, in the gutter.
David Lee Roth
You've got to roll with the punches to get to what's real.
David Lee Roth
I would just like to say that after all these years of heavy drinking, bright lights and late nights, I still don't need glasses. I drink right out of the bottle.
David Lee Roth
Remember, life is just a game and no one gets out alive
David Lee Roth
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

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
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
In front of the camera and in front of the lens, there's no lawsuits, there's no agent, and there's most frequently no time limits... There's a longevity that's kind of built into it. I spend most of my time behind the scenes, and when it is time to perform, I'm genuinely delighted to do it.
David Lee Roth
Give me a glazed doughnut, and a bottle of anything... to go!
David Lee Roth
I think the two most difficult things to deal with in life are failure and success
David Lee Roth
A lot of rock bands are truly a legend in their own minds.
David Lee Roth
The light you see at the end of the tunnel is the front of an oncoming train.
David Lee Roth
The perfect woman has an IQ of 150, wants to make love until 4 in the morning, then turns into a pizza!
David Lee Roth
The problem with self-improvement is knowing when to quit.
David Lee Roth
Nobody's going to get a hot dog at my concert!
