“Some people love 'Roots;' some people hate 'Roots.' Some people only l...” — Max Cavalera Quote

“Some people love 'Roots;' some people hate 'Roots.' Some people only like the old stuff. Some people want me to play like I did when I was 15. I can't do that all the time. I try to bring a little bit of that into some stuff that I do, but I can't just be that only. There's much more to life than that.”

“To me, if I retire tomorrow, what the hell am I gonna do? Sit around the house and do nothing? I would drive everybody crazy, including myself. I would go nuts - literally, I would go insane.”

“If you face problems, face reality, even when it's hard, even when what you're saying is an ugly truth, sometimes you can wake up faster and do something to make things better.”

“I grew up around old stuff that was not necessarily valuable, but certainly unusual.”

“Doing new stuff live is tough just simply because I pay my money, I stand in my seats, and I see the guys I love. And if I paid that ticket, there's a good chance that I'm there to hear the stuff that made me fall in love with 'em - we call it the 'old stuff.'”

“I don't listen to my old stuff very often at all.”
