Most of the people who are given these Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame things sell millions of records, so it's kind of like a trophy for them. But for the Ramones, it really was a symbolic gesture of, 'Yes, you guys are special and are important to rock n' roll.' So in that sense, the Roll Hall of Fame served its purpose.

Tommy Ramone

I really don't feel the need to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame because, at the end of the day, it's just somebody's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They have a particular process, and they're welcome to do it however they want to do it.

Alex Lifeson

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is marketing. You've got a bunch of faceless people in a back room who trademark a name that sounds very official. Well, if you had thought of it first, you would have been the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Paul Stanley

I would think if someone connected to steroids made the Hall of Fame, that would enhance my chances of making the Hall of Fame.

Pete Rose

That whole Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame thing - at least half the people in there don't have a place in any kind of hall of fame anywhere, in my opinion.

Butch Trucks

Now you don't know if somebody likes you or Milli Vanilli, the fame, the money. This makes it difficult. This makes you a little paranoid and afraid about people.

Rob Pilatus

With how huge Yes was, especially in the '70s and '80s, as a touring band and actually playing at the JFK Stadium in Philadelphia to 130,000 people, which is the biggest-paying show ever in rock history, you would think we'd done enough for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Chris Squire

I'm in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Songwriters Hall of Fame. Jimmy Page gave me the MOJO Maverick award. I got an Ivor Novella Award for my very first song.

Donovan

I don't think there should be a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, period.

Josh Klinghoffer

I'm in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on the One-Hit Wonder Wall. I'm still very troubled by the fact that I'm in the hall and my dad isn't.

Debby Boone

I never thought a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland or anywhere else was a good idea.

Todd Rundgren

I am one of the biggest Laura Nyro fans. I still listen to that stuff incessantly. Laura Nyro does not belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Songwriter Hall of Fame? Absolutely.

Paul Stanley

The Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame was a great idea when it started, but I think they ought to close it, I think it's full.
