Daron Malakian Quotations

Why don't presidents fight the war? - Why do they always send the poor?

Masturbation is great for the right arm

I would expect another Scars album before another System album.

Other kids would take their parents to the toy store and I'd take my mom to the record store.

Does it bother me that some people are burning their own System CDs and taking money out of my pocket? Not really. This has always been about putting the best possible version of the song in the fans hands. It was like selling an artist's painting before he had finished it.

I like to watch retarded people have sex, am I alone?

Superman told me... that we needed to make a double... type of record... and so I answered: 'Okay, Superman. We will make... a double type of record but it won't be a double album because... Batman... didn't want a double album'

Back in the day, when the emperor or the king or whatever waged war, they went to war, too. But that's been lost in time.

Music is an emotion, and I put it out there.
