More quotes by Frank Iero
Anytime you put yourself in a creative box, it's going to stifle you it's not conducive to the writing or recording process.
Frank Iero
I love players like Thurston Moore. I mean, you can put notes down on a sheet of paper, and if you practice and get your chops up, you can play like an Eddie Van Halen or a Steve Vai. But nobody can do what Thurston Moore does he's his own guy. He talks through his instrument in a language that's all his own.
Frank Iero
I made songs really for myself - I didn't ever expect to put it out there and make this a record for mass consumption, this was really just a way for me to get out of my own situation and reclaim that part of myself - so when making the songs, I wanted a testament to what I'd gone through, I wanted a snapshot of those moments.
Frank Iero
Where my heart lies is in the real-life, but at the same time part of it lies in this creative realm where I need to go in and put out that fire, scratch that itch, in order to be all rounded.

The future’s too bright to dwell on the past. Life moves fast, run faster.

The best music happens when you have a personal connection to it. That same philosophy can extend to the instrument you hold in your hands: if a guitar means something special, you're bound to do great things with it.
Frank Iero
Every time somebody ever told you that you weren't gonna amount to anything, you know, that's your time to shine, you know? You can show everybody and prove to yourself what you're doing is real and that it counts and that it makes a difference.
Frank Iero
You can only hold on to something for so long and enjoy it just by yourself, what's the point? It's very selfish. For better or for worse, I feel like the point of all of this is to make someone feel something.
Frank Iero
I've always been in bands writing songs with friends in order to play shows or record a future record.
Frank Iero
I like taking my time and seeing the things around me and appreciating the now. I started to realize that the things that helped me do that were these things that brought me love, brought me joy. And if we're all just falling towards an eventual end, falling towards the ground, then these things are parachutes.
Frank Iero
Love what you do and who you truly are. Be willing to die for it. If you are true to yourself, you can never go wrong
Frank Iero
Having kids had a big effect on me, but nothing more than when they started to get older- that really made me realize how fleeting each moment is.

About six years ago my family was affected by multiple sclerosis.
Frank Iero
My tattoos are like a scrapbook of my life. Sometimes you don't feel comfortable in your own skin, so covering it up with pictures helps

People never cease to amaze us.

People don't always realize that a record is forever. It'll always be there under your name. You've got to be certain that it's right.
Frank Iero
It could be anything, give a homeless guy a sandwich, help an old lady across the street like anything to make this world a better place. If everybody just did one good thing for another person like a selfless good deed just think about how much a better place this would be.

My first show was when I was a high school freshman, but it was at the junior class dance. My older friend and bandmate booked it.
