More quotes by James Hetfield
I'd much rather talk about guitar playing. I hate it when people ask me about my lyrics. I always feel like telling them to just go and read them.
James Hetfield
Dying, dying, someone told me just recently, dying is easy. Living is hard. For everyone.
James Hetfield
There was so much good and different music back then and you'd just keep moving through it and discovering more new stuff. I went through my Black Sabbath phase before I even started playing guitar.
James Hetfield
Rap is just to me very annoying.
James Hetfield
No secret that I enjoy motor sports and cars in particular, building cars, building custom cars. Part of that scene. I love the flow of the cars and I love the art part of them. I love the sleekness and the uniqueness of each car that you can dream up.
James Hetfield
Every breath I take becomes deeper, and I become more confident of myself without my crutches. The lies I've filled my body and soul with aren't needed anymore. They're not welcome. I choose to live, not just exist.
James Hetfield
Music is the soundtrack to my life.
James Hetfield
You want to hear vocals? Go sing it.
James Hetfield
I'm always feeling like I don't belong, no matter where I am. So I'm just searching for a family nonstop, and sometimes I find it in the mosh pit, sometimes I find it when I'm doing some French TV show with the president's wife.
James Hetfield
There is something powerful in Metallica, a will, a drive.
James Hetfield

If I hadn't of had music in my life, it's quite possible I'd be dead and I'd much rather be alive.
James Hetfield
We like to set off bombs.
James Hetfield
The fans like the idea we do what we want. It's not an act. Screw the record company and the beaten path. Without MTV or radio, we still have a huge underground following.
James Hetfield
My vocals are bad, I can't sing, hey man, I wouldn't ask you to do a drum roll if your arm was falling off.
James Hetfield
A lot of times, I'll have a goal, I'll start writing, and I'll end up in some far off place, which is good. It's nice to have a focus, but letting the lyrics write themselves where they need to go is important.
James Hetfield
Any time somebody is into your band that's a good thing. And if they're in a really cool, really popular band, that's a better thing.
James Hetfield
Metallica is the world to me - it always has been, and that's not going to change. I'm married to Metallica.
James Hetfield
Trios aren't really geared for slide unless you're gonna play chords, or play that simple George Thorogood style. It gets pretty thin when you play single note lines.
James Hetfield
When you're an actor and you walk into a theatre where your movie is playing, you're kinda proud. Look at my skill!
