Billy Corgan
I was trying to be this person who is cool, eternally rocking.
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
Destruction is a true sign of devotion. As I always tell my girlfriend when she threatens to kill me. 'You should kill me and it would tell me that you love me.
Billy Corgan
Shave your head, wear a 'ZERO' shirt. Take away your identity. What do you have? You still have yourself.
Billy Corgan
Most people don't know that wrestling came out of the circus.
Billy Corgan
I work differently than most people.
Billy Corgan
As a citizen of the great city of Chicago, I find it impossible to root against the White Sox. The White Sox organization has been much more consistent, in my lifetime at least, at putting a winning ballclub on the field.
Billy Corgan
I dont think we're the type of band people look at and say, 'I want to grow up to be just like that'. We're like a train wreck.
