If we're lucky we realize that life is really about family - your children, your family and your friends. Without that, the rest is hollow.

I tend to fly a bit under the radar.

You can't enter the Olympics unless you do your routine to get in shape for it. The idea of going out on stage on a tour without having prepped for it would be suicide, literally.

I am one of the biggest Laura Nyro fans. I still listen to that stuff incessantly. Laura Nyro does not belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Songwriter Hall of Fame? Absolutely.

If I had my way, I'd always be onstage. But I won't always be able to be onstage.

I never thought being the producer was being the dictator. It means being the director and being the coach. It's a way of keeping everybody focused on the goal, and also having final say. Everybody can be in the same car, but somebody has to drive.

Anybody with money can put on a KISS show, but they can't be KISS.
Paul Stanley
Image
KISS has always been outside of the borders of what other bands can do. Not that some of these other bands wouldn't want to do it - the fact that they may snicker or look down their noses at what we do is more out of jealously than anything else.

The only thing I can say is consistent in all my paintings is vivid color.

Youth is incredible because you really do feel invincible.

Autobiographies, for the most part, to me, are like writing a love letter to yourself.

In terms of merchandise, you can't force anyone to buy something.
Paul Stanley

Nothing could ever stop Kiss. I've seen the band in down times where critics were like vultures circling overhead saying things like, 'Well, you know it's the end of your career.'

Credibility is someone else's idea of what I should be doing.

Tooting my own horn is of no interest to me... it takes you away from real life. It's a waste, and I don't find a need to sing my own praises.
