Adam Goldstein quotes

I've prayed every night for the past 10 years. There's a lot more to thank God for now. My philosophy is 'live life to the fullest,' [and] I was saved for a reason. Maybe I'm going to help someone else. I don't question it. All I know is, I'm thankful I'm still here. (Adam Goldstein)
(on the plane crash) I saw Travis running and flailing, trying to put out fire on his body. He screamed, ‘What do I do?' and I said, ‘Roll!' He did, but the fire didn't go out. He tried to rip his clothes off. I finally put the flames out by smothering him with my body. Some of my burns are from that. His sock was on fire – I burned my fingers taking it off.

Feed the soul, starve the ego.

What I do with the majority of my free time is help people get off drugs. It's nice to just sit and listen to them talk about what's going on in their life and not think about what's going on with me for a while. Success is not money, it's happiness.

There's no reason why I should have lived or why I lived and they didn't. And it's something I struggle with every day.

They shaved my head and took layers of skin from my scalp. To heal the wounds, I was in a hyperbaric chamber for 90 minutes twice daily for four days. It's claustrophobic. One of my first nights home, I watched ‘Iron Man' with friends. In the scene where Robert Downey Jr. comes out of the cave with a blowtorch, my whole body cringed. That night, I had a nightmare someone spilled fuel on me and was trying to light me on fire. I woke up and thought, ‘Oh my God, this is going to happen forever?

I hadn't heard his remixes and didn't know how amazing a drummer Travis is. But we got together, I threw on James Brown's 'Funky Drummer,' one of the most sampled beats in hip-hop, and 'I Know You Got Soul' by Bobby Byrd. His face would just open up; he would match the beat perfectly. I thought, 'Damn, this is fun.' It's like a skeleton you get to put the clothes on. And once the clothes are on, you yank out the spine.

I just can't wrap my head around it – I don't want to believe it's real – and nothing I can say will serve his memory any justice right now. I'm just f-ng sad sad.
Adam Goldstein
In complete shock. I really want to use words right now but I can't get em. Fuck. We're supposed to lose our friends to time, at an age when we're ready to agree to the terms of having lived a long life. Not now.

I am deeply saddened by the news of the passing of DJ AM. He was our resident DJ at Rain Nightclub at the Palms Casino Resort. We considered him a friend and a great artist. He will truly be missed. (Adam Goldstein)
I saw DJ AM play in a mansion in Miami, and he amazed me with his skills and the music he picked to make the crowd move. He made sure everyone - I mean everyone - had a good time!
Adam Goldstein
I have really bad days and I have really OK days. It's strange. I'm blessed. I'm alive. I'm here.

The fact that I can be in an airport and someone says, "there's DJ AM" means something, right? I just don't consider myself a celebrity, I've never viewed myself that way. Five Minutes with DJ AM (August 2008).

We were live on-air and I had to fill for time, so I just rolled up on him - I didn't know him. And I remember thinking how unfazed he was that we'd just shoved a camera in his face, because he was kind, he was charismatic, he was funny. He was a good guy and I remember that meeting very well. We spoke after that, and we would see each other out a lot and I would go and see him play. He was always cool, like effortlessly cool.
