James Hetfield
I like a women who's got some balls, some strength. As long as I can beat her at arm wrestling, that's fine.

Most of my guitars have been instruments that look cool. I'm not picky. I never think, 'Oh, this neck isn't made of ebony,' or, 'These strings don't feel correct.' It doesn't matter too much.
James Hetfield
Sleep my friend, and you will see that dream is my reality.
James Hetfield
I've discovered that sheer quantity doesn't necessarily make for a heavier sound if anything, overdubs make guitars sound mushier.

Music is the soundtrack to my life.
James Hetfield
I'd like to have a beer-holder on my guitar like they have on boats.
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.
