Classic quotes from Jon
 
Was reading ''Bon Jovi: in their own words'' last nite and came across a few comical quotes from Jon:

'' Over the past few years, ive been sent script after script, but iv always turned them down adamantly. My singing career is not a step towards an acting career, and im still a believer of that. I dont wana to be Madonna and ill never try to gbe Madonna. For a start she got bigger t!ts than me.''

lol


'' Vanity aside, we're one of the best rock bands iv ever seen''


Anyone out there got any more??!?

If number of friends determines wealth then I'm the richest man in the world....

Comically becoming the opening line of a song of Repete Prescriptions called Poor Man Living in a Rich Mans world... sort of taking the piss really...

(RP lyric) "if a poor man has a 1000 friends, will he still be as rich as me?"

If a man can be judged by the friends he keeps, then I must be the luckiest man in town!

We've always been a band of the people JBJ

We've been on a rollercoaster ride, there and have been peaks and there have been valleys, and I think I have taken all the fans with me on the ride of my life

When you realise how its touched other people, its like lightening in a bottle. Its magic.

Be honest and don't follow fads or fashion. Do what you do and do it well.

I'm comfortable in the shoes im in. I know where I fit in, what I do and how I do it

There's a certain magic that happens when we get together in a room. And it is the band, that cannot be duplicated.

I hate all that stuff about the way I look, I cant believe all the fuss about my clothes and hair. I realise people say these things but I don't pay attention. JBJ

I've done some crazy things in my life...but I wouldn't mind doing some more! - JBJ

Details? Don't bother me with details - JBJ

Not all who wander are lost - JBJ

Success is falling nine times and getting up ten - JBJ

Believe in love. Believe in magic. Hell, believe in Santa Clause. Believe in others. Believe in yourself. Believe in your dreams. If you don't, who will? -JBJ

There's no 25th hour in the day, so DON'T look for it - JBJ

If you really wanted to torture me, you'd tie me down and force me to watch our first five videos - JBJ

To me, music and rock 'n' roll is always about communication. It's always about reaching out to your audience and really having a good handshake through music - Richie

At the end of the day, I just love making music. It's where I live really. It's my vibe, my destination, it's where I want to be - Richie

I'm a firm believer in a simple rule - a man can never have too many pairs of sunglasses or too many guitars! - Richie

Creativity is what keeps you going. It's the essence of life - Tico

Forget the real world! C'mon to a Bon Jovi show! It's putting your hands up in the air and singing and having a blast - David

We've always been honest to what we do. We are Bon Jovi and we're always gonna be – David

Miracles happen everyday-change your perception of what a miracle is and you'll see them all around you - JBJ

not old,just older and like a fine wine it just keeps getting better all the time - JBJ

There isn't anything that can't be accomplished - Passion + Persistence = Possibility - JBJ

Bon Jovi touches people's heart more than their ears - Richie

It's easy to say I Love You to someone, It's more meaningful to say.. Thank you for loving me - JBJ

I wear "designer clothes", but not because of fashion trends, but because they last longer than cheap brands. I used to buy cheaper clothes, not caring about whether or not they had a famous name to them...but they didn't last. They tear and fade easily, but the top brands last longer...at least on me they do, lol.

As for the make up thing, I think that's a bit girly (not meaning to be sexist, but it is true).
