Quote

The only exercise I got as a kid was fork to mouth. Food was equated with love in my household. I thought you left the table when the zipper was down and you'd explode if you took another bite. I'd eat my plate and then everyone else's leftovers.

The fact that you can't base a coffeehouse on any other rock band is the other rock bands' problem, not mine.

Anybody with money can put on a KISS show, but they can't be KISS.
Paul Stanley

A Kiss concert experience is like sex or anything else that's done with more that one person. It's the give and take that makes it so great. When the audience takes it to the next level, we can kick it up another notch.
Paul Stanley
Image
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.
Paul Stanley

I think KISS has always been about celebrating self-empowerment. Celebrating the idea that anything is possible with determination and hard work.

Doing my art came out of something very solitary and something that I had no intention of showing anybody, and yet once people saw pieces in my house, it became really clear that there was a great demand for my art.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is marketing. You've got a bunch of faceless people in a back room who trademark a name that sounds very official. Well, if you had thought of it first, you would have been the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

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.'

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.

We are still not in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame but there are 3,000 Kiss products, a Kiss musical toothbrush, everything from Kiss caskets to Kiss condoms. There are no Radiohead condoms.
Paul Stanley

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.

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.

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

It's a really special night for our fans. It's vindication.

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

Youth is incredible because you really do feel invincible.

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

The things we sing about are timeless. Political affairs and social situations come and go. But if you're singing about empowerment and not playing by the rules, you can sing about them until you can't sing anymore.

The great thing about rock-n-roll is you realize the top of the mountain is big enough for more than one band.
