More quotes by Billie Joe Armstrong
The bigger the risks, the better off you are. Otherwise you're just boring.
Billie Joe Armstrong
You can't change the wind but you can set your sails.
Billie Joe Armstrong
In every song I write, whether it's a love song or a political song or a song about family, the one thing that I find is feeling lost and trying to find your way.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I just wanted to get the hell out of my town. I wanted to leave with reckless abandon. I didn't care where I ended up, as long as I saw as much as humanly possible.
Billie Joe Armstrong
We never fit in completely to [the punk] scene because we were writing love songs that were heartfelt and endearing. Some of the punks didn't know what to make of us, but I finally realized that was what made us punk. We sang what we meant, from the heart, and didn't worry about what anyone was going to think.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I was on drugs when I wrote some of my songs. It was a rough time for me, but I'm lucky enough to be one of the people who learned from that experience and moved on, where other people just got addicted and more addicted and more addicted until it killed them.
Billie Joe Armstrong
Slipknot sounds like Tre choking on a hairball.
Billie Joe Armstrong

Billie Joe Armstrong
Just about 99% of the population masturbates while the other 1% lie about it.
Billie Joe Armstrong

Billie Joe Armstrong
The first time I ever saw him play, Tre Cool was wearing a tutu and an old-womans swimming cap.
Billie Joe Armstrong
If you have children, you don't want to have drugs and drinks in the house. It's just not good.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I definitely related a lot to Perry [from That's Ordinary World movie]. I liked how he put family first. I identified with the exhaustion and klutziness that comes with being a parent, and how he's just a rock-and-roller at heart. For me, it was fun to kind of imagine whether or not this could've been the path I went on, or not.
Billie Joe Armstrong
This never gets old, and when it does, I'll go do a movie. I like the fact that I can get into other projects because everything feels fresh when I come back to music.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I threw a big-ass party. It turned out a bit different from Perry's [in That's Ordinary World], but it was pretty nuts. It wasn't me that threw it though, my wife threw me a surprise party. So [unlike Selma Blair's character] she didn't forget.
Billie Joe Armstrong
No one's really happy anyway, it's not human.
Billie Joe Armstrong
Moshing and broken glass just don't go together.
Billie Joe Armstrong
It's not only exciting to watch, but you can also speak a different language with each other. It's a music language that's unique, compared to what other parents do, especially in their professional lives. Not everybody can talk about being an accountant.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I never thought being obnoxious would get me where I am today.
Billie Joe Armstrong
My wife is the CEO of the family. I'm the fun guy, just trying to make it up as I go along.
