OK folks the Ultimate VH quotes list-Enjoy

Him Too? Either that or they're gonna have to figure out an acronym for
'Oops, we fucked up the last decade!'
"Oh god, for a long time I thought I was the 'hip' replacement! Shit,
'til he (Eddie) gets a hip replacement my sister could kick his ass in a
street fight."
"Classic Van Halen made you want to drink, dance and fuck. Current Van
Halen encourages us to drink milk, drive a Nissan and have a
relationship."
"I always pictured Extreme as being short for 'extremely boring.' And I
describe their music and Gary Cherone's contribution as a condom
advertisement, have you read this before? 'Thousands of tiny little
notes, urging you to let go with music so thin, you feel like you're
hearing nothing at all.' There will always be a Holyfield or a Tyson,
but there's only one Mohammad Ali. There will always be a new body
building champion, but there's only one Arnold. And there's only one
David Lee. I'm the fun in Van Halen, always will be." - David Lee Roth,
Popsmear Magazine, March / April 1998
"We're having lots of fun and we're really pounding out the songs.
Personally I couldn't be happier!" - Gary Cherone talking about the next
Van Halen record about a month before he was fired, The Inside, Issue
15, 1999
"If Gary's in, he's in for life. And if anything ever happens...that
would be the end of Van Halen. I'll take up Tuba." - Eddie Van Halen,
Spring 1998. Better go buy a tuba then Eddie!
"As for the fans, some fans never accepted Sammy! If they're not going
to accept Gary, fine. Then listen to the Roth records, and if you like
Sammy, buy those records. We're moving on. And the fans are not going
to dictate who I work with. All I want to do is make music, and
hopefully touch somebody with it. If you want the old, buy the old.
You want the new, buy the new if you like it. But nobody's going to
force me to do something I don't want to do, because them it wouldn't be
honest to our fans. I have to make music from my heart with the people
I enjoy doing it with. If we went on the road with Roth, it would be an
embarrassment-it would be ripping off our fans. If we started in
Toledo, Ohio, we'd never make it to Cleveland. After the first gig,
people would go, "I want my money back!" Some things are just better
left to memory, period. And the memories are great. I mean, in a lot
of people's minds, the memory of it is more vivid than the reality. It
just ain't there, man. It just ain't there." - Eddie Van Halen, Guitar,
January 1997.
"I mean, hey, the guy's creative, okay? But he's a lousy human." - Eddie
Van Halen on David Lee Roth, Guitar World, July 1985
"It reminded me of overdue dentist appointments"
"It sounded like hot water on a sick cat"
"You want me to sit here and salute the sinking of the Titanic?" - David
Lee Roth on Howard Stern, when listening to the Van Halen song "How Many
Say I", which is sung by Eddie.
"Eddie Van Halen's a weakling and his brother is a triple weakling." -
David Lee Roth, October 18, 1997, from Slawterhouse Magazine at
DavidLeeRoth.com
"He looked like a pair of panty hose stuffed with cottage cheese." -
David Lee Roth on Eddie Van Halen, October 18, 1997, from Slawterhouse
Magazine at DavidLeeRoth.com
"He's [Eddie Van Halen] got the spiritual spine of a chocolate eclair. -
David Lee Roth, October 18, 1997, from Slawterhouse Magazine at
DavidLeeRoth.com
"The last time I spoke to or saw Dave was back in September of last
year. I played him a few new tunes, we bullshitted a bit, had some
laughs, and everything seemed cool. He was even kind enough to turn me
onto his uncle, Jack Roth, a cancer surgeon and research specialist at -
coincidentally - M.D. Anderson, in Houston, where I had been going once
a week for treatment."
"Everything looked pretty positive about gettin' together. But before
you know it attorneys are involved. These cats had me so beat down and
confused, it made the cancer seem like a tiny zit on my ass. Everything
seemed to fall apart once these guys got involved. I mean... we used to
do it on a handshake. At this point, I don't have a clue what is going
on." July 11, 2001 Edward Van Halen speaks about David Lee Roth in Maximum
Golf Magazine.
"I don't know what goes on in other people's realities, and I don't try
to figure it out. He knows where I live."

Actually Gary was never fired. He quit the band on his own accord and is
still on good terms with the brothers and Mikey.
