More quotes by Gene Simmons
Never underestimate the power of being popular in pop culture. You have to be able to do something. You can have a good seat at the restaurant, but you still have to pay for the meal. Fame is important, but to be rich is more important.
Gene Simmons
My background is full of pain. My mother was in a Nazi concentration camp and our whole family was killed off. Then early on your father leaves and all you've got is your mother, and I was an only child. Then you come to a new country and I can't speak English.

Gene Simmons
I'd like to think that the boring lady who's talking to me now is a lot sexier and more interesting than the one who's doing NPR. You know, studious and reserved, and - I bet you're a lot of fun at a party.
Gene Simmons

Gene Simmons
Don't believe bands who say it's all about the fans and they want to give their music away for free. The result is they will continue to live in their mother's basement.
Gene Simmons
It's too easy to do a patriotic-themed show to crawl into people's hearts and minds.
Gene Simmons
Kiss is not a charity. Never, ever mix commerce and charity.
Gene Simmons
Get rid of the friends who want you to spend your whole day doing nothing with them. They're not your friends. They're your enemies.
Gene Simmons
The most important word in American, in Western culture, is I.
Gene Simmons
If you're the greatest, it's okay to say you're the greatest. My suggestion to everybody is to be their own greatest fan. Weaker personas and personalities define that as egotistical or arrogant, but what it means is their self-esteem isn't that strong.
Gene Simmons
There is not a single person alive who could keep a straight face and say Oh yeah it's healthy, the reason I use drugs and alcohol and booze is because it's healthy!
Gene Simmons
After 9/11, people all of a sudden became patriotic and showed the colors. Why did it take something bad to happen? It means something. People have died for it, and continue to do so.
Gene Simmons
No one has the right to shake his finger in your face.
