Default 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??!?

JBJ - I believe

"Sambora's face is a mask of joyous disbelief, as if previously unaware of his ability to play the instrument at all. Reaching the last fistful of notes, he does a fair impression of a man who is actually ejaculating into his jet black flares."

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?"

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).
