1) "I sat in my hotel room all day today, looking at a pile of faxes and papers, a million things that need my attention. And I don't know, something just came over me. I took my Halliburton briefcase and smashed every light fixture in the room with it. Sometimes I don't know what's real anymore, and what isn't"--Axl talking about life on the road.

2) "I think it's a really weird job. I'm not saying it's a bad job, I'm not saying it's a great job. But you know, it's just the work that goes into being that athletic. I mean, do you want to go out every night and jump off, like, your car? And have to do that? It's like it becomes your job. That doesn't take away the the sincerity or the honesty of it, but it is a job. And sometimes I'd rather be doing something else."--Axl talking about life on the road again.

3) "I really think that the next official Guns n' Roses record, or the next thing I do at least, will take some dramatic turns that people didn't expect and show the growth. I don't want to be the 23-year-old misfit that I was."--1992

4) "In some ways I hate the way I was raised...the lack of support for anything I was into or good at. But in a way I can't hate it, because it gave me this sense of drive...this mission to do something with my life."

5) "At times I enjoy writing and at other times I just hate it because it's definitely having to go back and experience some pain and express how you really feel"

6) "All of a sudden I'm diagnosed Manic-Depressive...Let's put Axl on medication. Well the medication doesn't help me deal with the stress. The only thing it does is keep people off my back."

7) "I personally love our songs. The bottom line is this, if this were all to finish tomorrow then at least I've got 'em on tape. I'm not writing this for you, I'm not writing this for anybody who listens to it. I'm doing it for me."

8) No. I don't even know how necessary it is that they know me. If somehow through me they're able to know themselves a little better, that's what's cool. It is hard when you are communicating with a majority of people who have no idea where you are coming from. They just know Guns n' Roses means party. Rock 'n' Roll. Okay, that's cool, but it means a lot more than that and if you think that's what it's all about then you can go home. Because there are times when I just don't have the energy to continue fostering that belief in people-that rock 'n' roll is an escape. I can't find too many ways to escape anymore. I have to face myself and face things head-on in my life. And each day I'm rising to the challenge a little bit more."--Axl was asked if the people who listen to his music really know him in an interview printed in Musician Magazine in June 1992.

9) "We play good, straight American rock and roll, you know... I don't want to sound too cliched or anything. We play with a punch, with an edge to it." - 1986

10) "The songs are what mean the most to us...we all write, and we all write well. We're willing to go through hell if we can get a good song out of it...When I'm up onstage singing the words that capture that experience, it's all worth it." - 1988
