More quotes by Zakk Wylde
Every night I get up on stage, I love it. I never get like, 'Oh, I'm bored, I want to go home.' I never, ever get like that.
Zakk Wylde
You have to have passion for anything you do. Whether it's sports, whether it's music, whether you want to be Mother Theresa, you have to have passion for what it is you do, or what's the point in getting up in the morning and getting out of bed?
Zakk Wylde
The one thing about the music business is that there is no rulebook. It's not like the NFL or something where there's four downs to get ten yards or baseball where it's three strikes and you're out.

That's why for Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society the colors are black and white. There are no gray issues. Life is black and it's white. There's no in-between.

Being in the studio, it's more of a controlled environment, where you can be Salvador Dali and sit back and look at the painting. And you can go, 'Ah, you know what? Maybe a little bit more red over here...maybe add some blue over here.' You can sit back and look at the painting.

Even when I played sports when I was little, I played to win. Otherwise, what's the point of putting the pads on and going to practice? I don't understand.
Zakk Wylde
Around my house, I won't even speak to my family unless they first address me by my official Berzerker name, Godred Crovan, Victor of Sky-Hill and Ruler of Man and the Isles. And now that I think of it, that's probably why nobody speaks to me unless it's time to feed the dogs or take out the garbage.

Another time I cracked two of the vertebrae in my back and broke a rib.
Zakk Wylde
I'm blessed to be able to do what I do.

One day my wife went and saw the accountant and said she's pulling the plug. She said you guys are done. I said, how bad can it be? 10 grand? She said you're not even close. It came out to almost $50,000 in alcohol for two months.
Zakk Wylde
If you have passion for what you want to do and that's what you want to do, you've just got to bust your balls and go for it if you want to play music.
Zakk Wylde
Another Black Label motto. That's what I think life is. It's just another bridge to cross. You ask no questions. Whatever work it is you gotta do, you gotta go over it, under it, through it, around it, to do it.
Zakk Wylde
As much as I love heavy riffs, I like The Eagles, Neil Young, Elton John, Crowded House.
Zakk Wylde
I knew that I was going to dedicate my life to music and that was it.
Zakk Wylde
Live, it's just the free flow and the energy and the excitement. It's a one-off and you have that adrenaline for an hour and a half.
Zakk Wylde
Without a doubt, Eddie Van Halen is the greatest guitar player who has ever lived.
Zakk Wylde
It's pure Black Label. It's about violence and booze. That's all it is. There is no plan
