James, that's a bad situation. I'm not saying it's not repairable, but it's pretty far. When you go from being in one of the best bands in the world to some cover band... as far as I'm concerned, he was playing down at the pub.

Billy Corgan
Everybody can close their eyes, picture a dream house or a perfect place [where] they'd like to have a picnic. But actually creating it - how do you create something from nothing? Anyone who's creative understands that that's the magic, that's the alchemy.
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
What has gone on in my childhood, and the personal problems that we've had in the band, have given a lot of people hope. (It shows) if you keep your nose pointed straight you can actually get somewhere -- to a happy place.
Billy Corgan
If you don't have some sort of belief system by which to center your life, it's hard sometimes to understand why you would put up with your family.
Billy Corgan
Stay in school. Lie to your teachers, but stay in school.
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
Most people don't know that wrestling came out of the circus.
Billy Corgan
I'm passionate about creating new systems that are more holistic to humankind. What do I mean by that? I mean, create new systems of business so that people with ethics both exploit their goods and their gifts while not exploiting the earth, exploiting one another.
Billy Corgan
I'm prepared to spend the rest of my life playing clubs, if that means I'm playing music that I believe in.
Billy Corgan
Shave your head, wear a 'ZERO' shirt. Take away your identity. What do you have? You still have yourself.
Billy Corgan
