More quotes by 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.
David Lee Roth
On parties it's not about who you are. The real reason to which a party revolves is how good you look.
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
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
I'm a family oriented guy I've personally started four or five this year.
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
The problem with self-improvement is knowing when to quit.
David Lee Roth
I'm not conceited. Conceit is a fault and I have no faults.
David Lee Roth
Audience participation should extend from on-stage to backstage to under the stage
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
It dont matter WHAT your doin, ust as long as you LOOK GOOD doin it
David Lee Roth
I think the two most difficult things to deal with in life are failure and success
David Lee Roth
I don't get all the women that I want... I get all the women that want me.
David Lee Roth
The most important part of any rock song is the guitar solo.
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
I change as the times change. I'm a reflection of what's around me without trying at all.
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
Rap is poetry to music, like beatniks without beards and bongos.
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
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!
