More quotes by James Hetfield
I'd like to have a beer-holder on my guitar like they have on boats.
James Hetfield
We discovered how much money influences certain things work in United States. How things might seem okay on the outside, but internally, they're corrupt.
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.

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.

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
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
Dying, dying, someone told me just recently, dying is easy. Living is hard. For everyone.
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.

I like a women who's got some balls, some strength. As long as I can beat her at arm wrestling, that's fine.
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
There is something powerful in Metallica, a will, a drive.
James Hetfield
You want to hear vocals? Go sing it.
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
No one but me can save myself though its too late, death greets me warm, now i will just say goodbye.
James Hetfield
It's a good feeling, that you can put your heart out there, no matter how black it is, and people can understand it.
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
The band? No way! There ain't no band. The band is not 'the band' right now. It's just three guys.
James Hetfield
It's good to listen to lots of different stuff, just whatever you like. The first two records I ever bought were Alice Cooper, Killer and Jethro Tull, Aqualung. That's two weird records to begin with, but I think they hold up well.
James Hetfield
Nothing's really a prized possession except my family, you know?
