They’ve got one dude from the band floating around in them, you know. That’s not a true reunion. With Pantera, it’ll never be possible.

- I did a lot of great things in the past, but I live for today and for the future.
- A lot of young drummers have a tendency to really overplay. Sometimes simple is better, and the notes that aren’t played between the spaces are bigger than the notes that are.
- John Bonham, probably the greatest drummer ever – all of us wanted to play drums like him.
- People are selfish, man. They want what they want; they don’t care what you want.
