More quotes by 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.

If I choose to buy it then it's my choice.

Billy Corgan
Most great records really start with the drums.
Billy Corgan
I believe that if the Tribune company ever tries to close down Wrigley Field that you will have a protest from every corner of the globe.
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
Heavy metal is a universal energy -- it's the sound of a volcano. It's rock, it's earth shattering. Somewhere in our primal being we understand.
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
When you present people with things from the heart and from the soul, they make better choices: They make better choices about their bodies, they make better choices about their partners, they make better choices about the environment.
Billy Corgan
I've rarely done anything that's overtly self-destructive without consciously knowing what I'm doing. And then of course, the astute journalist jumps forward and says, Why are you being calculated? Calculated seems to assume a sinister intent. My intent is always for artistic effect.
Billy Corgan
Don't judge yourself by someone else's standards. You will always lose
