More quotes by Billy Corgan
I was trying to be this person who is cool, eternally rocking.
Billy Corgan
If I had spent fourteen months in a small room with Jesus, I'd want to fist fight with him.
Billy Corgan
You've got to be ready to be in a great relationship.
Billy Corgan
The point is to let the music be itself. If it doesn't mean anything to you, then it's bullsh*t.
Billy Corgan
Once a pumpkin, Always a pumpkin.
Billy Corgan
Most great records really start with the drums.
Billy Corgan
We don't make music for people to take drugs to, we make music for people to live their life.
Billy Corgan
Beware of those angels with their wings glued on.
Billy Corgan
I'm a Pisces, and Pisces have this weird inability to be completely spontaneous. We're too conscious of our actions. I've always been way too sensible for my own good.
Billy Corgan
We are the most beloved and hated band in the world.
Billy Corgan
Gish was the best representation of where we were at the time.
Billy Corgan
I mean, I'm certainly not a 'teaophyte,' or whatever the word would be.
Billy Corgan
You can only be this high-powered mojo rock band for so long, then you just can't look people in the eye. So, we've projected our own demise.
Billy Corgan
I don't have a problem with 'Idol' or 'X Factor,' I have a problem with when those things are not given the proper contextual hue.
Billy Corgan
My version, of course, is not this flag-waving, let's all get on the Jesus train and ride out of hell. I'm not that kind of guy. It's an embrace that life is good, worth living and yeah, it's not easy, but there are more pluses than minuses.
Billy Corgan
I mean my point as an artist is I'm on my own little weird journey across the sky here and whether or not anybody's listening, or listening to the degree I would like them to, at the end of the day has to be an inconsequential thing because I can't chase this culture.
Billy Corgan
I was raised a Christian, but I wouldn't call myself a Christian now. I think when I was younger it was easier to focus on the negative, nihilist vision... this is sort of picking up on the other half of the body, which is God and white light.
Billy Corgan
It's about the girlfriend who left me last year. I tried to put all my anger in those words, even though I'm just as much to blame for the break-up. 'Soma' is based on the idea that a love relationship is almost the same as opium: it slowly puts you to sleep, it soothes you, and gives you the illusion of sureness and security. Very deceivable.
Billy Corgan
The title of a song is like the wrapping on a present.
Billy Corgan
We weren't like mates who decided to form a band. The other three met me because they were interested in being in the band that I was starting.
