I don’t like KISS very much, but I do like Gene Simmons. This NPR Fresh Air interview from a few years ago is why:
(26 minutes)

Or, if you prefer, the transcript.

Excerpt:

I think … it — life is too short to have anything but delusional notions about yourself. Which is — you should really like yourself more than you deserve to, because the alternative isn’t very good. You should really think you are better looking than you are, because the alternative is … sort of … you know, some … some bad notions. And so I’m aware, as a sane person, that I’m not the best-looking guy in the world. I’m aware of it. But when I go into a party, I will walk out with your girlfriend.

Dave - What I told you yesterday was wrong. It was Gene Simmons who refused to let NPR archive/re-air that interview, not the other way ’round. It’s mentioned in the wikipedia article.
