“There are some songs that don't belong to The Animals that I refuse to...” — Eric Burdon Quote

“There are some songs that don't belong to The Animals that I refuse to give in to and not do. I enjoy singing other people's songs, you know. That's why they're written in the first place.”

“I did have a life before the Animals, and I'm trying constantly to prove that I have a life after the Animals. People tend to forget that I was the frontman with War for two years. People sort of have compartmental memories.”

“I don't think Jimi committed suicide in the conventional way. He just decided to exit when he wanted to.”

“I have no pretension that I belong in D.C. I mean, I have to be cautious on how we do our restaurant.”

“Some people would claim that things like love, joy and beauty belong to a different category from science and can't be described in scientific terms, but I think they can now be explained by the theory of evolution.”

“I belong to the Richmond Concert Society, who put on very good concerts.”
