Gene Simmons citáty

„Jako Žid si uvědomujete, že vaší nejsilnější zbraní je vaše mysl.“

“Believe me, the library is the temple of God. Education is the most sacred religion of all.”

“We can't be The Beatles. I can't shine their shoes. I can't sing as well as Paul or John. I can't write those kind of songs. But they would die in my armour and my eight-inch platform heels, and Paul can't spit fire, so there you have it.”

“The notion is that if you want to welcome me with open arms, I'm afraid you're also going to have to welcome me with open legs.”

“My mother was 14 when she was in the concentration camps of Nazi Germany. My mother’s alive and well, but only because of America. Without America’s military, the world would be in deep… fill-in-the-blank. I’m forever grateful for that.”

“Being a Jew, you realize your strongest weapon is your mind.”

“I think Prince was heads, hands and feet about all the rest of them, I thought he left (Michael) Jackson in the dust. Prince was way beyond that. But how pathetic that he killed himself. Don't kid yourself, that's what he did. Slowly, I'll grant you … but that's what drugs and alcohol is: a slow death.”

“KISS is the number-one American band in gold-record sales. In the world, only the Beatles and the Stones are ahead of us. Every other band should be wiping my ass. The line forms over there to the left.”

“Walk amongst the natives by day, but in your heart be Superman.”

“Prostitute yourself. As far as I'm concerned, that's even braver than waiting for the public to catch on.”

“You can't argue with facts and figures. Either people want it, in which case they pay for it, or it's two guys sitting around at the Plaza having a discussion, which means nothing. I mean, Titanic. I wasn't crazy about the movie. But you know what? I'm gonna shut up, because the people have spoken. End of story!”

“You shall not covet thy neighbor's wife? Well, how about if she goddamn covets me? What do you think about that?”

“You know why I'm pulling your leg? Because I can't touch it from where I am.”

“I think I know it all, relatively speaking.”

“My mother is probably the wisest person I've ever known. She's not schooled, she's not well read. But she has a philosophy of life that makes well-read people seem like morons.”

“"You can't buy love with money." Only a poor person says that.”

“Anybody who picks up a guitar and tells you that there's some inner message that they're trying to convey... it's nonsense. They're not being honest. The reason they're doing this is they wanna get lots of chicks and they don't want to work for a living.”

“I’ve known Donald (Trump) for a few decades, and what you can say without argument is that he’s a good father. His kids have turned out really well. There’s nothing bad you can say about that.”

“Elvis is the king of rock and roll, who made white kids shake there shackle.”

“People say, "I want to get laid a lot and make lots of money."”

“My skin is more beautiful than yours. I would be quite more popular in jail if I so chose.”

“Like any large organization, there are going to be some bad people. Many people go to church; not every priest is a good guy. But you don't throw out the baby with the bathwater. Wounded Warrior is an important organization, and all the various vet groups are important because, shamefully, we don’t have an amendment to the Constitution that guarantees if you volunteer to serve your country, and risk life and limb, that you’re even going to get a job, so that you can feed your family. It’s pathetic. ‘Hey, thanks a lot for risking your life, and you’ve been wounded. Good luck out there!’ The men and women of our military may not expect to get rich and famous, but at least give them a job for God’s sake, so they can feed their family!”
