More quotes by Billie Joe Armstrong
I think it's your own choice if you turn from an angry young man to a bitter, old bastard.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I just open my mouth and out it comes.
Billie Joe Armstrong
There's an honesty in our family - my kids and I are able to talk about things without me putting the fear of God into them.
Billie Joe Armstrong
If me and Mike Dirnt are in the same room, it's not quite right if he's not on stage with me.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I sound like an Englishman impersonating an American impersonating an Englishman.
Billie Joe Armstrong
Minority is about being an individual. It's like you have to sift through the darkness to find your place and be that individual you want to be your entire life.
Billie Joe Armstrong
The things that people do now in sports, you can't even believe. These are complete total athletes. To see what human beings can do in the highest level is amazing.
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
When we were making the record, I just decided, at the last second. I thought, This song [Ordinary World] makes a lot of sense, being on the album [Revolution Radio].
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
Songs are like a form of chaos that you can control. It's a form of intelligence that maybe you only understand and you hope that someone else can understand. And you can be anyone you want: you can be as grandiose as you want or you can be as down in the gutter as you want. It's just sort of whatever emotional freeway you're on at the time.
Billie Joe Armstrong
My job description is that I'm a rock star. And I'm good at it.
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
Just because you're in the missionary position don't make you no missionary.
Billie Joe Armstrong
No one's really happy anyway, it's not human.
Billie Joe Armstrong
A guy walks up to me and asks, What's Punk?. So I kick over a garbage can and say. That's punk!. So he kicks over the garbage can and says, That's Punk?, and I say, No that's trendy!
Billie Joe Armstrong
As agent asked if I wanted to be represented, and I said, Yeah, sure, I'll give it a shot! It was never something I had really put that much thought into. But then, Lee Kirk reached out and asked if I was interested, and I read the script of the [Ordinary World] and said, Absolutely!
Billie Joe Armstrong
When I was done with the movie [Ordinary World], I felt really compelled to start working on another album. Little did I know, they were going to come out back to back.
Billie Joe Armstrong
You don't get nothing and like it.

We've been a band for 16 years. This is what you dream about.
