More quotes by Billy Corgan
We love cats more than we love women [with Marilyn Manson].
Billy Corgan
I don't think '90s music was as significant as '60s music in terms of changing the world, but it was significant, and I think it was similarly disillusioning when you realize the mainstream just views it as like a curiosity.
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.
Billy Corgan
I think the days of working with producers in the conventional sense are over for me.
Billy Corgan
Where is this great love for rock and roll that existed for 50 or 60 years?
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
In my case I don't mind playing a character that irritates people or makes people question my sanity.
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
My view of the world is always tempered by the fact that there are people who are less fortunate than I am.
Billy Corgan
You have to keep adapting to the times. If you kind of go with it, it can kind of fun.
Billy Corgan
I think God is the most unexplored territory in rock and roll music.
Billy Corgan
Most people don't know that wrestling came out of the circus.
Billy Corgan
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 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
Compliments and criticism are all ultimately based on some form of projection.
Billy Corgan
We're both cat lovers [with Marilyn Manson].
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
In our lives in a lot of ways it's all about fake. You've got people wanting things for fake reasons.
Billy Corgan
To be able to put your arms around 24 years of music, it's really fun.
Billy Corgan
I think when I listen to old records, it puts me back in the atmosphere of what it felt like to make the record and who was there and what the room looked like. It's more a sensory memory.
Billy Corgan
