If you've sold over a million records, you are not punk rock, you are milking the system for everything that it's worth.
Billy Corgan
We had a wonderful time with this kind of grunge awareness, where suddenly rock was cool again. People wanted to head loud guitars. It was a great time, and I'm glad we were there. But the gimmick part has worn off.
Billy Corgan
People try to make a big deal, like I don't want to play my old songs. That's not it. I don't want to play my old songs if that's my only option. That's a different thing.
Billy Corgan
We love cats more than we love women [with Marilyn Manson].
