More quotes by Nikki Sixx
We were telling everybody we weren't getting back together when we were in the studio actually recording. We wanted to try it on, to see how it would fit.
Nikki Sixx
I look back at things I said when I was younger - it was bulls - t. You do what you have to do to go where you have to go, but I look back and I don't believe what that guy was saying.
Nikki Sixx
It's about what happens on stage, whether we can deliver it in a hungry way that is who we are in our hearts.
Nikki Sixx
The more confident you are, the more you can let go and believe that the people you've chosen to be in your circle are able to do what they say they're going to do and what they're really good at. It has made me a better band member, too.
Nikki Sixx
If your album sells, that's cool, more people find out about you, more people get turned on to what we're really about-which is a live rock and roll band.
Nikki Sixx
Your shallow men shall dream, dreams, your insightful men shall see visions.
Nikki Sixx
My favorite moments are when the bass falls in the pocket with the drums, the guitar is on top just slicing it, and the melody is scraping across like a sidewinder shattering through the monitor. It's just, ahhh, I love it! That's the jones, the hit, the buzz right there. It gets me off.
Nikki Sixx
In my own life I like to be poised and have a positive outlook on life, and I'm leading by example to my children and people around me.
Nikki Sixx
Sometimes I think I should just buy a blow-up party doll. Same level of intelligence, plastic, and full of air. The problem is, I'd probably fall in love.
Nikki Sixx
I don't fear death I welcome it with open arms and a smirk. But until that wondrous day, I will continue to savor and celebrate all those who have graduated before me.
Nikki Sixx
The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying says that death is the graduation ceremony, while living is just a long course in learning and preparing for the next journey. If we acknowledge death as the beginning, then how can we fear it?
Nikki Sixx
A lot can happen [because of the dysfunctional family]. People don't look at that. They think, Oh, my kids are going to be fine. My kids are resilient. But at a certain point, the damage starts. They start to feel pain - and when they feel bad, they start to take painkillers. We want to kill the pain.
Nikki Sixx
For me, I never knew what addiction was. I just knew my heroes, like [New York Dolls guitarist] Johnny Thunders, did heroin. I didn't have a father, it looked good to me. If I had read Johnny Thunders' book The Heroin Diaries, I don't think I would have done heroin.

Perfection is unattainable, so I like to live in imperfection.
Nikki Sixx
UNUSED LYRIC I’ve never been to Eden But it’s nice I hear tell When I die I’ll go to heaven ’Cause I’ve done my time in hell
Nikki Sixx
Anybody I'm in a band with can do what they do better than me. I'm a huge believer that I can play bass or whatever I bring to the table - producing, songwriting, orchestrating - and I can look at the other guys and say, He's got that, he's got this, and I have this. It's a team thing.
Nikki Sixx
I have always believed that if you are honest in what you do, continually reinvent yourself at the same time, and there's respect amongst your band members, then you will be respected.
Nikki Sixx
We have a growing new fan base, and we wanted to get out now, and play now, and the timing was right.
Nikki Sixx
I'm able to make decisions even in the face of adversity.
Nikki Sixx
Artists are very young, and say, Um, ok, to these industry dudes.
