AFI quotes!
I am trying to put together as many AFI quotes as I have ever found on the Web. Hopefully this will become the largest AFI quotes page. I've gotten these from all different sites: JadeXCore, AdamXCore, friends of mine on the AFI message boards...everywhere. If you know of a quote that you don't see on this page, PLEASE email me and let me know so I can add it.

"As you get older you will gain a bit more control over everything. Don't let anyone, even your parents, break you. Find good people who care about you and surround yourself with just them.

“I eventually became the king ruler of the pear-packing plant.” -Davey

Q: Hey Jade, are the rest of the guys jealous that the entire Girl’s Not Grey video occurs in your crotch?

“A girl in Salt Lake once asked me ‘Why are you wearing makeup, are you a fag?’. I said, ‘Well, if I’m a fag for wearing makeup, you must be a dyke in blue jeans.’ I also informed her that she was just angry because I was prettier than she was.” -Davey

“…I experienced one of my most starstruck moments at the Oasis show. Now, there are a handful of people who will get me starstruck, but generally, I’m able to handle myself because if I meet them it’s at a place where I wouldn’t be surprised to do so. I did not expect to see Trent Reznor in Las Vegas at this Oasis show, so when I did, I had a little episode. Needless to say I totally dorked out and fan-boyed all over the accommodating gentleman for about 4.5 seconds before letting him be free of me. He was cool. It was nifty. Bowie, you’re next.” -Davey

The secret to AFI's awesomeness according to the Jade:"It's all in the wrist."
Triple_Zero:to the jademeister hello jade, i think you are good at playing the guitar. ok now for the questions: you use les pauls exclusively. any thoughts of recording certain parts using a different guitar? when you pick up your guitar what is usually the first thing you play? in an interview with AMZ, you said that you wrote 11 of the 13 songs on black sails, i was wondering which two you didnt thanks alot for being so coolio, my mom thinks youre handsome -Evan
Jade: Evan, I hope you're not going to have a problem with me being your new dad, I think we can make it work. There will be a few changes, however, like no more late nights out with the friends and would it kill you to take out the damn garbage once in a while?
Jade: Oh yeah, and using different guitars for different feels in a song is definitely cool. Fender guitars lend themselves well to clean tone parts, they have a nice sparkly yet warm tone that'll make you want to pee in the sink.
Question:now that you guys probobly have some nice cash now would you ever ever ever buy a mansion? or stick with the midsized houses, like 20-30 thousand just asking and cars do you stick with the cool old cheapy's or go with the hummers?
Jade's Answer:I will be moving into my mansion as soon as I get back to Berkeley, it says Frigidaire on the side. It'll go well with my Porsche that says Safeway on it.
"...and we believe we have quite a bitchin' selection of songs, every one's a Lamborghini." -Jade
"I think it's more like songs remind me of times in my life when I wrote them. Like Malleus Maleficarum, because it was the first song I wrote for AFI, or Totalimmortal, I was about to go out and get a cup of coffee and for some reason I just picked up my guitar and the whole song came out in one shot. Or God Called In Sick Today, it reminds me of Davey and I laying around on my bed writing songs for Black Sails. Hope I answered your question..." -Jade
"Actually, I enjoy both Lynyrd Skynyrd and Pink Floyd. Don't they say Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd is the best album to make out to? Personally I think it's FsharpAsharpInfinity by Godspeed You Black Emperor." -Jade
"I think Tucson should armwrestle Phoenix and whoever wins, we'll play there." -Jade
Question: Hey Jade. There is this football jock in my school who tries acting like all that. He called me a faggot today cuz I wore an AFI shirt.. Should I jump him after school or just hit him with a bat or do you recommand something else? You seem like the type of guy who got in his share of fights.
Jade:You should grab his butt.
Ask him if he wants to make out with you or fight you and then do the opposite of what he says. The last thread in which someone wrote, "Mooove bitch, get out the way" disappeared before I could say:
BITCH! Watch out, watch out, watch out BITCH! Watch out, watch out, watch out, move Here I come, there I go UH OH! Don't jump bitch, move You see them headlights? You hear that fuckin' crowd? Start that goddamn show, I'm comin' through Hit the stage and knock the girlies down I fuck the crowd up - that's what I do By the way, that's Mystikal. If I had wrote it, it would be far tighter.
QuestionQ:i was wondering if you and Davey ever fought over a mirror backstage or something, and if so who won? and who has used the most makeup on one single nite? thanks,Jay.
Jade:Actually, yes, that happens all the time. Finally, I was like, "That's it! It's time to settle this make-up contest once and for all, I challenge you to a make-out!" Wrong choice of words.
"He's answerd a bunch of questions, he just gets the most, look at all the Davey questions, it's a daunting task keeping up with it. Either that or he's still trying to go online with his Playstation." -Jade
"Jeebus! Those are great things to recieve! I'd be freakin' stoked to get a lovely juice box!! Try getting a walnut. I got a damn walnut one time and it sucked. Totally. And I said, "Hey, this damn walnut totally sucks" -Jade
"Hackey bag foot sack always confused me, I could never figure out what the score was or who was winning so I'd always get mad and end up kicking it into the lake." -Jade
"Yeah, I had some embarrassing ones, Mr. Rad, Mr. Buff, Mr. Freakin Buff and Tan as Hell, BuffTan the Vegetarian, mostly stuff like that" -Jade
"God, remember Tab cola? It was so nasty, possibly the worst soft drink ever, even worse than Crystal Pepsi. I'll always think of Tab as the beverage of choice for child molesters because I knew this creepy old man who drank it and he must have been a child molester because all old people are child molesters" -Jade
Deadfishsandwich:i just wanted to tell you that youre the reason i started guitar because i wanted to be as cool as you, only the girl version. and i was wondering that since i dont have any and you seem to be a nice dude, would be my friend?
Jade:Of course I'll be your friend, I'm also the cool girl version of me. Maybe if you changed your username you might attract more friends, and less flies
"I think most people in North Carolina listen to Hootie and the Blowfish. Last time we played there I was standing outside the club and this guy came up and said, "You guys are ok, but Hootie's from here and they're amazing!" And then he said, "They live right there!" while gesturing vaguely towards this dried up riverbed with some scraggly trees around it." -Jade

I was quite intrigued and went to pick it up but he said, "Son, unless you can wail on that thing like Nuno Bettencourt from Extreme or maybe Steve Vai when he was playing with David Lee Roth and he had the sweet double-necked guitar that was like two legs coming out of a heart, keep your damn hands off it!" And I never touched a guitar again. So to answer your question, yes, I answer the phone whether it rings or not." -Jade
"Tell him to come check me out when I'm shredding some sweet fingertapping solos and then he'll be like, 'Power chords blah blah blah' and I'll hit the whammy bar and it'll sound like a plane crashing at an air show and then he'll try to say some other stuff like, 'Blah blah blah yadda yadda yadda' and that's when I fire up the wah-wah pedal and it'll be like 'Wokka wokka wokka wo-wokka wokka' all up in his freakin' face" -Jade
Question:Hey jade i dont know if ya read my last post but i swear to god im your long lost son.I think you knocked up my mom or something.But it is great to look like you you guys kick so much ass.your music has inspired me and brought me out of the hardest times in my life for which i am thankful.
Jade:I definitely knocked up your mom so maybe you are. Sorry I was never there for you, son.
"Let's totally be best friends. We can walk down the street with our guitars and I'll say, "Hey chicks!! Check us out, we're rad!!!" and when all these hot chicks start checking us out, we can blaze off some totally sweet solos and then you'll be all, "Hey chicks, you wanna hang with us?" and they'll be like "Hella!!" and the we'll both be like, "Ok, cool......psyche!!!!" and then we'll high five while shredding on our axes.

"Upon further review, I've realized that my last post was neither interesting or informative in any way. Here's what's REALLY going on:
We're getting super radly awesome close to being done. We finally finished backing vocals and the came out totally 100% neat. I made plenty of supercool faces while I was singing, like this one where I had my eyes all clenched tight and then I hit this high note and looked up to the sky and slowly raised my fist like Whitney Houston in "I Will Always Love You". Another time, I ate all the cheese bagels and Adam was mad. In other news, we had a photo shoot today for the album artwork in this old abandoned building. Here's what happened to me there: I stepped on a dead mouse, sat in a stinky pigeon nest, and set my glasses down in crackhead puke." -Jade
"My favorite foods once upon a time were chicken and granola bars, but now that I'm vegetarian, just chicken." -Jade

"If you're gonna come up here and sing with me, don't sing the wrong words in my ear because that really fucks me up." -Davey
Davey: Yeah, they'll listen to it, and if it says something crazy, they'll say, "Oh, we can't play this. This is too much for the people to handle." There are some exceptions to the rule. There are bands like Tool, or Smashing Pumpkins. Rage Against the Machine. Nine Inch Nails. What other bands have valid things to say?
Adam: Slipknot.
Davey: Slipknot??? I don't know what the hell they're saying!
Adam: They want to take over the world.

Interviewer: How do you guys go about the songwriting process?
Jade: "Well, usually it's just me in my apartment making the songs, and then for the lyrics I usually go to Davey's house and we lay on his bed...you know, homoerotic song writing."
Interviewer: Isn't it weird to think your faces are on a lot of bedroom walls?

Davey: We all have posters of Adam.
Gavin: So why don't you just tell us what you do in the band?

Fan in crowd: I love you Davey!

More fries, less statistics." -Jade

Jade: Pathetic...

"I listen to AFI songs quite a bit when we're recording them because it helps me to come up with new ideas on how to improve them. It would be kind of embarrassing if I was at a stop sign and someone rolled up and saw me rocking out to my own song though..." -Jade
"I'm not sure who your cousin is but I am familiar with the "crappy crew."

We skated, fought hicks, and generally had a bitchin' time." -Jade

Jade: I really tried to figure that question out but I think it's missing a crucial verb."
"I'm not really feeling Tropsnal, it sounds like an ointment for jock itch. Your band should be called either Ripping Hammer or Starving Zombee." -Jade
"On an unrelated topic, I know many of you have downloaded our album already because you couldn't wait, which is understandable, I was always the kid who opened all my presents on Christmas eve too. However, I hope all of you who were planning on buying it still do because we have to buy lots of cigarettes for Fritch and corndogs for Smith." -Jade
"You could hollow out a big pumpkin and wear it on your head for the entire week of your birthday. This will allow you to get in touch with your Halloween emotions." -Jade

Jade, sweetie, you know I love you dearly but let's not badmouth Linkin Park, you guys shot the S&C video on the exact same bridge in PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia as LP shot their "Numb" video. AFTER they did.
"i hate last words" - Jade
GEOFF: Oh yeah, ask us about Wal-Mart
DAVEY: Yeah, ask us about Wal-Mart
MRR: What about Wal-Mart?
GEOFF: Well, let me tell ya. I went there with Dave and Mark looking for material to print patches on and there was this gangster girl there and she walked by and laughted and said, "It's not Halloween, you know." While she was walking away I said, "You coulda fooled me." She came back and got in my face and said, "What did you say?" I looked her in the eye and said, "YOU COULD HAVE FOOLED ME." I basically spelled it out for her and she was tough or something and said that Ukiah was her city and Wal-Mart was her territory and to watch out for her or some crap.
ADAM: That's basically why we left. [lotsa laughter]
GEOFF: Then her boyfriend got in my face and said, "Hey man, this is my girlfriend. Why don't you shut up?", and I said, "well then why don't you tell her to shut up?!", and he just walked away. That was about it. Oh!, and there's another story about Wal-Mart. Davey and I were buying dog chains and this redneck, typical Ukiahan guy walked by, and said, "Hey look, they're buying their jewelry." And then Davey sez,....
DAVEY: "That's right, MOTHERFUCKER!!" [laughter]
GEOFF: I didn't see who it was. I looked for him and was gonna go up and say, "Yeah, they're for your wife", but I couldn't find who he was."
"There are a lot of tards in San Francisco" -Adam (I fit right in!)
"You put a little black box up his butt?! A box?! Couldn't you have found a carrot or something?" -Davey (from the old Loveline)

"You wouldn't want to get your ass kicked by Carrot Top." -Jade (from the new Loveline)
"When I think of feces, I just think 'Germany...'" -Davey (from the new Loveline, during "Germany or Florida". he was the only one who got it right, by the way)
"Old ladies come up to me all the time telling me to find god, when all I want to find is some chai and a good vegan muffin." -Davey
"He must be good....what guy other than Davey Havok can go onstage at Warped in Drag?" -Tim Armstrong of Rancid
Interviewer: How did you learn to sing?
Davey: I did? I don't know, I've been singing since I was five years old at family functions. I used to visit my great grand parents at their house in PA, and my relatives would pay me to sing old 1920's songs into a wooden spoon. I was between the age 3-5 years old.
Interviewer: Alright, how about your favorite pick up line?
Davey: I don't have a pick up line. Someone asked me that already, just a few days ago. Um, I've never had one used on me, and I've never used one on anybody else, so um, I've heard some I like, the one that goes 'did it hurt?'
Interviewer: What?
Davey: 'When you fell from heaven'. I like that. *laughs* I would never use that but,yeah.
"During the recording of Black Sails, Davey and I played chess constantly. Why do you figure me for Monopoly? I played Mike Tyson's Punch Out far more than Monopoly" -Jade
Davey: (when called a Madonna impersonator) Oh, please! I wish I had her body!

"I have so many black T-shirts, Fruit of the Loom gave me my own private jet." -Hunter

(Question about the religion of the band) Q: Oh well I was just wondering because all your songs are like 666 and stuff... Hunter: Yeah its my phone number, I didn't want to tell anyone.
"I'd rather hump a human leg than a dog any day." -Hunter, after being asked if he would be attracted to another dog if he were a dog.
Question: What are your thoughts on eskimos?
Hunter: I love eskimos. They have 23 words for "sno-cone"
Random Person: Happy Birthday Hunter! I hope you had a fantastic, wonderful, smashing, grade-A birthday! Hunter: Thank you. Even though my birthday was a few weeks ago, I'm still celebrating it.
Hunter- Wanna fight?
JxLxWx- yeah..Let's go
JxLxWx- See! Here's you! Your staring at the table!
Hunter- I was trying to move it with my mind.

Idol Eyes: Hunter! They're taking me away from you!
Hunter: That's okay, because we will be reunited in another life.

"Today I'm wearing my semi-see-thru sleeveless pink shirt with the pegasus/unicorn flying happily over a rainbow. I really feel like a hundred pesos when I wear this shirt, if you're coming to the St. Louis Warped Tour today, you might see me kicking hella butt in it. You also might see several horrible sunburns, XXXL shirts, crushed beer cans, me riding a BMX bike with extreme recklessness into merch tents because I drank two Hansen's energy drinks, and other unmentionable sights." -Jade, from his JadeXCore message board thread entitled "Boys who like girls who like boys who like girls." This is from June 2003 so it's nothing new.
Here are some of Jade's other threads on JadeXCore: "Where's your head at!!" (Jun. 16, 2003), "<3"(May 2003).
