The biggest reason for divorce is marriage.
Coming back to Israel is a homecoming.
I like to approach every day like it's the only day I will ever have.
Well being in Kiss is having a more limited spectrum. It's a smaller playground to play in because there are limitations. I'm the big bad wolf and I'm supposed to do this and that. There are rules, which are self imposed I must say, but there are rules. We break enough of them, but the truth is that being Gene Simmons in an album called 'Asshole' forged me the opportunity of just recreating myself. Very much Jekyll and Hyde. Mr. Hyde is the big bad guy and Dr. Jekyll has studied and both are connected.
That's why I'm a big supporter of the death penalty. I want to be the hangman. I would put many more people to death like the kids who want to kill other people, I'd put 'em to death. Postal workers who get arrested, they have mental problems. You know what? When you're dead you don't have a mental problem. If you take a life, I will take yours. Put me in charge, I will fix it.

Live well - respire frequently.
With just a little effort, life can be more or less exceptionally tolerable.
What we have is pretty meaningless. It's what we are that counts.
Our perception of yesterday is the foundation for our expectations of tomorrow.
We're starting a cable network and a boxing venture, getting involved in Indy car racing, Warner Brothers is starting work on the 'KISS Babies' cartoon show, and the KISS Broadway musical is commencing production.
Music is feeling. You can try to verbalize it. It really just hits you or it doesn't.
