Punk rock isn't supposed to be for everyone. There is that sort of private club mentality, which is necessary. It keeps things from getting watered down and boring.

More quotes by Billie Joe Armstrong
You have to search the absolute demons of your soul to make a great record.
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 don't feel any shame I won't apologize if there ain't nowhere you can go running away from pain when you've been victimized tales from another broken home.
Billie Joe Armstrong
What I see in a lot of music movies, or rock 'n' roll movies, that feature a band is that they're lip-synching.
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.

No one's really happy anyway, it's not human.

Billie Joe Armstrong
I hate celebrities. I really hate them.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I hate television. I hate the internet. I hate cell phones. I hate cameras. I hate everything that destroys creativity.
Billie Joe Armstrong
Rock 'n' roll can be fun and dangerous at the same time.
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 think people are born bisexual, and it's just that our parents and society kind of veer us off into this feeling of 'Oh, I can't'. They say it's taboo. It's ingrained in our heads that it's bad, when it's not bad at all. It's a very beautiful thing.
Billie Joe Armstrong
We are not afraid to be entertainers.
Billie Joe Armstrong
It's better to regret something you have done than to regret something you haven't done.
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
I know I'm always going to be a musician, for the rest of my life. That's for sure. It's about how you balance between being a musician and being a parent, and making it intertwined.
Billie Joe Armstrong
