The best time is during the struggle. The top of the mountain is usually small, freezing and lonesome. To this day I'm continually reinvesting myself in something new. I'm not afraid to start as a beginner in anything.

More quotes by David Lee Roth
It's not who wants to sleep with you It's who wants to sleep with you again.
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
If you put a Van Halen album in your record collection, it will melt all the rest of your records.
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
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
Critics like Elvis Costello because critics are like Elvis Costello.

Many of the critics have kids of their own. It scares the hell out of them to think that their kids could be anything remotely like David Lee Roth.
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
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
I don't get all the women that I want... I get all the women that want me.
David Lee Roth
When I die, sprinkle my ashes over the 80's.
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
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
When you can spell subpoena without thinking about it, that's when you know you've made it.
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 used to have a drug problem, but now I have enough money.
David Lee Roth
You gotta learn the alphabet, backwards and forwards. And then the choice is yours, 'cause last I looked, the Bible is written in the same words, the exact same alphabet, as my favorite pornography. Choice is yours.
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
Music videos are like girlfriends. I'm constantly amazed on what other people doing
David Lee Roth
They make this drink in Brazil Called cachaca. It's sugar can alcholho. Costs 35 cents a quart. One quart of that stuff and you see God. Two quarts and you graow a pair of tight pants and an electric guitar.
