"There are basically two categories of music: Metal and bullshit."
"My son is in a band, and he’s a singer, and his vocals … they’re screaming-growling stuff … and he’s got a pretty reasonable voice. Yet he practices really hard to get the screaming-growling thing without losing that voice every five minutes. So I’m, like, “Hats off to you.”"

"If heavy metal bands ruled the world, we'd be a lot better off."
"We're better than Metallica. We're better musicians, better players. Put it this way, they can try to walk onstage after an Iron Maiden show if they want."
"I find that fencing and training give me more stamina and help me deal with the craziness of being on the road so much."
"Life is too short to do the things you don't love doing."
"Iron Maiden is an institution, and I'm delighted that I'm involved in it, but there was a time that I wasn't delighted so I quit."
