More quotes by Billy Corgan
Rock in the mainstream culture has lost a lot of its mojo.
Billy Corgan
Ultimately, running a band is about the relationships you have with people.
Billy Corgan
These days you're not just competing with the tedium, you're competing with the cellphone.
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
Rock and Roll is still asking people like me to live up to the old guard's concept of what success is but it doesn't mean anything.
Billy Corgan
I do not think wrestling is going to save the world.
Billy Corgan
We're the worst band in America... That makes us the best.
Billy Corgan
You know Americans are obsessed with life and death and rebirth, that's the American Cycle. You know, awakening, tragic, horrible death and then Phoenix rising from the ashes. That's the American story, again and again.
Billy Corgan
I mean there's certainly a lot of progressive rock and metal that exists at the underground level, which has its own vitality, as it should. But it seems to have lost its ability to really charge up the hill.
Billy Corgan
To be able to put your arms around 24 years of music, it's really fun.
Billy Corgan
I think long and hard about what it is I'm actually trying to do, and then I kind of have to narrow my focus into that. If I don't, I'm too all over the place.
Billy Corgan
It seems to me that references to bands like Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin meant more to me a year ago and all those old things are totally losing importance.
Billy Corgan
I mean my point as an artist is I'm on my own little weird journey across the sky here and whether or not anybody's listening, or listening to the degree I would like them to, at the end of the day has to be an inconsequential thing because I can't chase this culture.
Billy Corgan
If I have resistance to something, it means there's something wrong. The resistance to me is a sign of fear.
Billy Corgan
We love cats more than we love women [with Marilyn Manson].
Billy Corgan
The title of a song is like the wrapping on a present.
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
Injuries are nothing to be ashamed about.
Billy Corgan
All I can go on is my own value system.
Billy Corgan
Around the mid-'90s every hair guy who would have been in a hair-metal band got his tattoos and suddenly decided he was alternative. It just became like a thing.
