More quotes by 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

Billie Joe Armstrong
It's better to regret something you have done than to regret something you haven't done.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I don't like LA. The majority just seem to be so artificial. Look at how they worship everything they think is fashionable. Isn't it sick?
Billie Joe Armstrong
Never run in the rain with your socks on.
Billie Joe Armstrong
One thing I want to teach my son is sensitivity to other people. I want to teach him not to be this macho freak.
Billie Joe Armstrong
The thing about punk is that there are purists. Once you start going outside of that, they don't think what you're doing is punk rock.
Billie Joe Armstrong
Just because you're in the missionary position don't make you no missionary.
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
