More quotes by Billy Corgan
It was shocking to see Nirvana play, because it was like, Here's this little guy with a monster-guitar sound. And it was heavier than Black Sabbath. That was shocking.
Billy Corgan
Being overly identified with [a certain period of time] becomes a noose around your neck, and people don't want you to grow up, they don't want you to change, they don't want you to evolve.

Like any form of death, at some point you just have to get up and say yeah I'll take it, whatever's gonna happen is gonna happen and sorta chop your head off. It's easy to avoid all that...there's always another moment, another girl, another high, another drug, there's always something to distract you.
Billy Corgan
I never seemed to fit in. But it made me try to strive for things ten times harder.
Billy Corgan
Like any good tree that one would hope to grow, we must set our roots deep into the ground so that what is real will prosper in the Light of Love.
Billy Corgan
I know how stupid people can be. I've played in front of 5,000 people that bought a ticket to my concert, and some guy who's bought a ticket decides he's going to throw a bottle at my head. That's a simple act of stupidity. That's not even defiance.
Billy Corgan
I think humankind is going to have to evolve into systems that are more transparent. Then people will be able to make more integral choices about the food they eat.
Billy Corgan
The ideology of the Smashing Pumpkins was ultimately more valuable than the music of the Smashing Pumpkins. That's what critics can't put their finger on.
Billy Corgan
The deeper I get into my life as a musician, I'm discovering that it becomes less and less about other people, and more about what I want to do. And that's a good place to be.
Billy Corgan
Smashing Pumpkins has never been a band about hit songs.
