अगर कोई मुझसे कहता, "यह अच्छा विचार नहीं है," तो मैं जवाब देता, "नहीं, शायद यह तब एक अच्छा विचार होगा जब तुम मेरे साथ बैठकर पियोगे।" मैं बात का पासा ही पलट देता था। मुझे समझाने का कोई तरीका नहीं था। मैं किसी की भी तर्क भरी बात सुनने को तैयार नहीं था।
If somebody told me, "Not a good idea," I would've said, "No, it's probably a good idea if you get drunk with me." I would've flipped it around on them. There was no way you could tell me anything. I wasn't listening to any type of reason.

मैंने किसी चीज़ से तौबा करके काम नहीं छोड़ा। मैं जैसा था, वैसा ही रहा, इसलिए मुझे नहीं पता कि कोई मेरी आलोचना क्यों करेगा। मैं आज भी वही हूँ।
I didn't go and quit anything. I remained who I am, so I don't know if anybody wants to criticize. I'm still me.

लोगों को जान से मारने की मेरी कोशिशें उतनी बुरी नहीं थीं जितनी लोगों को अंदर से तोड़ देना, उन्हें रुलाना और उनके टुकड़े-बड़के कर देना था, क्योंकि शब्दों के घाव कभी नहीं भरते। यही मैंने सीखा है। इसके बजाय मैं अपने बेटे की परवरिश करते हुए उससे कहूँगा, "अगर तुम्हारी अपने दोस्त से लड़ाई हो जाए, तो उसे सीधे मुक्का मार देना। कुछ मत कहना, क्योंकि अगले दिन तक वह उस बात को भूल जाएगा।"
Me trying to kill people wasn't as bad as me tearing people down and making people cry and ripping them apart, because words never heal. That's what I've learned. I'd rather raise my son and tell him, "If you get in a fight with your friend, just punch him. Don't say anything, because the next day he doesn't get over that."'

मैं जितना बुरा हो सकता था, उतना बुरा था। मैंने किताब में जो लिखा है, शायद मैं उससे भी बदतर था। मैं शब्दों में बयां ही नहीं कर सकता कि हालात कितने खराब थे।
I was as bad as it gets. What I wrote in the book, I was probably worse than that. I couldn't really explain how bad it was.

मैंने कुछ बदलाव किए, लेकिन मैं सबको यह बताता नहीं फिरा कि मैं बदलने के लिए तैयार हूँ, मैं बस अपने जैसा ही रहा। इस किताब को लाने पर शायद आज मुझे पहले से ज्यादा आलोचनाओं का सामना करना पड़े। जान लीजिए, शायद यह मेरा वक्त है, लेकिन मैं हर आलोचना और हर सवाल का जवाब देने के लिए तैयार हूँ।
I made some changes, I didn't go around telling everybody I was ready to make changes, I just remained me. I may get more criticism today in putting this book out than I have. You know, maybe this is my time, but I'm ready to take the criticism and answer anybody's questions.

मैं करीब 13 या 14 साल की उम्र में शराबी बन गया था। मैं पूरी तरह से इसकी गिरफ्त में आ चुका था। हम रोज शराब छुपाते थे, दुकानों या अपने माता-पिता से चुराते थे और धूल भरे मैदानों में छुपकर स्कूल जाने से पहले और बाद में इसे पीते थे।
I became alcoholic at around age of 13 or 14. I was full-blown. Every day we would hide the alcohol, stealing from stores or stealing it from our parents and hiding out in dirt fields and drinking it before school and after school.

मैं ऐसे लोगों से बात करता हूँ जो रिहैब जाते हैं, और उन्हें रोज पढ़ने के लिए AA (अनाम शराबी) की एक बहुत मोटी किताब मिलती है। वे इन सभी 12 चरणों से गुजरते हैं और जाने क्या-क्या करते हैं। यह कितनी अजीब बात है कि हर कोई रिहैब के बारे में खुलकर बात कर सकता है, लेकिन अगर मैं आकर यह कहूँ कि ईसा मसीह ही मेरा रिहैब थे, तो इसे कूल नहीं माना जाता... मेरे लिए वही मेरा रिहैब हैं। मेरे साथ यही हुआ है और यह एक बेहद अद्भुत और शक्तिशाली बात है।
I talk to people who go to rehab, and they get this AA book that they've got to read everyday - really thick book. They go through all these 12 steps and do all this and that. It's crazy how everybody can sit and talk about rehab but if I come to say Christ was my rehab, it's not cool to say that. ... For me that's my rehab. That's what happened with me and it's an amazing and powerful thing.

रॉक 'एन' रोल की दुनिया की भाषा में, उन्हें रॉक डॉक्टर्स कहा जाता है। वे कॉन्सर्ट्स में आते थे और बैकस्टेज पर रहना पसंद करते थे। आप उनसे अपनी पसंद की किसी भी दवा का पर्चा (प्रिस्क्रिप्शन) ले सकते थे। वे बस मौज-मस्ती करने और पार्टी करने आते थे। यह पागलपन है क्योंकि आप किसी भी चीज़ का प्रिस्क्रिप्शन पा सकते हैं। इससे कोई फर्क नहीं पड़ता कि वे किस तरह के डॉक्टर हैं।
In the rock 'n roll slang world, they're called rock doctors, or rock docs. They would come out to shows and like to hang backstage. You could get a prescription for anything you want from them. They just want to hang out and party. It's crazy because you can get a prescription to anything. It doesn't even matter what kind of doctor they are.
