It's absurd for anybody to look around and hear the acts and artists who cite us as an inspiration, and then tell me that we're not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

From Paul Stanley

Tooting my own horn is of no interest to me... it takes you away from real life. It's a waste, and I don't find a need to sing my own praises.

From Paul Stanley

There are no fans more rabid or devoted than KISS fans. KISS fans are what all other fans are measured against. That's how it came to be known as the KISS Army.

From Paul Stanley

I don't know what's more embarrassing, these musicians and actors talking about politics in interviews or the media actually giving them credibility about it. It's absurd that a celebrity could speak out on the economy or politics with no more justification than a hit album or a movie.

From Paul Stanley

The whole idea of rock and roll lifestyle is a cartoon. It's a caricature. And at times, it's made up of people emulating others; a few who actually live that lifestyle and many who claim to live that lifestyle.

From Paul Stanley

Don't kid yourself; the guy who's onstage in ripped-up jeans is wearing as much a costume as I am.

From Paul Stanley

The fact that you can't base a coffeehouse on any other rock band is the other rock bands' problem, not mine.

From Paul Stanley

Gene sometimes... well, he has his dream list.

From Paul Stanley

I never thought being the producer was being the dictator. It means being the director and being the coach. It's a way of keeping everybody focused on the goal, and also having final say. Everybody can be in the same car, but somebody has to drive.

From Paul Stanley

If I had my way, I'd always be onstage. But I won't always be able to be onstage.
