Quotes

"I understand that I represent a character on stage, but at least that character is mine. People see me as "the one with nails on his arm" and that's alright, but I don't have to be the same person on stage and in real life." (Metal Hammer)

Kerry when asked if he thinks that people out there, who would sell their souls to be in his shoes, have something in common with the Kerry King of seven years ago:
"Well, I think that all musicians in their early stages are the same. After all, we are at opposite sides of the stage, but we are all part of the same show, aren't we?" (Metal Hammer)
