I've always had to do things my way I play guitar my way I've taken myself to the edges of life my way I've gotten clean my way And I'm still here. Whether or not I deserve to be is another story.

More quotes by Slash
Experiencing yourself out of context, divorced from your usual point of view, skews your perspective – it’s like hearing your voice on an answering machine. It’s almost like meeting a stranger or discovering a talent you never knew you had.
Slash
One time we played a concert in Antwerp, Belgium. At least I thought it was Antwerp, Belgium. Turns out it was a Stop 'n Shop in Wisconsin somewhere, but it was fun man.
Slash
The era itself has nothing to do with anything. We weren't really attached to that at all. I just saw this thing where they had a Poison concert on VH1, and to me, that is being attached to an era.
Slash
There are people who have an image of me as being rude and inconsiderate. But I'm completely the opposite, because I was raised not to be. I might have been tripping over myself drunk, but I was always courteous.
Slash
[the best advice about women] was from Robert Evans. The line was in his book, but he told me, When it comes to a woman's mind, I know nothing.
Slash
As soon as I could put together the, you know, three or four notes that made up, like, sort of a rock and roll lick, you know, like a Chuck Berry kind of thing, I was off and running. Just completely taken over.
Slash
If I could hang out with Jimi Hendrix, it wouldn't be over dinner.
Slash
Restlessness is a fickle catalyst it can drive you to achieve or it can coax your demise, and sometimes the choice isn't yours
Slash
I think when I was a kid, and I was in England and it was all about The Stones, The Who, The Kinks and The Beatles and that's what my dad was into.
Slash
I am married and I have two kids now, and I love them all to death. So I am trying to put all that together and maintain the same pace I've been keeping. But really, I relish what we do. A year and a half sounds like a cakewalk to me.
Slash
A lot of vices that I've had over the years were always to make up for some sort of character deficiency, one of them being shyness.
Slash
When that band started out, I was 18 years old. So that was my reality all the way up until I quit the band. And even then, you know, Guns N' Roses has a nasty way of sticking around.
Slash
When we weren't being transcendent we specialized in self-inflicted disaster.
Slash
For me, the original Guns N' Roses is the embodiment of a certain kind of chemistry that really couldn't be duplicated.
Slash
I was the one that allegedly quit and joined my old band. That wasn't true. But it was said so matter-of-factly on the Internet that the guys weren't really sure what I was up to.
Slash
I dont believe in having regrets.
Slash
It's not so much about how good a player you are, its how cool you are.
Slash
Rock n' roll is about attitude and rebellion. It's supposed to be fun and spontaneous.
Slash
If you were a kid and you wanted to come out and make a statement now, you'd have to really dig deep to find something that no one has exposed already.
Slash
Originally, I wanted to call the band 'Guns 'n Robots.' I still believe that if we had just called ourselves 'Guns 'n Robots' we'd still be together.
