More quotes by Billy Corgan
I'm attacking the pomposity that says this is more valuable than that. I'm sick of that.
Billy Corgan
Indie world won't have me, and mainstream world treats me like an alien, but here I am still floating between these two worlds.
Billy Corgan
We're both cat lovers [with Marilyn Manson].
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 have a hard time thinking of men trying to sing my songs, because I think my perspective is definitely feminine.
Billy Corgan
When I've tried to reinvent the wheel, I get bashed for not doing the familiar things.
Billy Corgan
The difficulty, if you're in the world - and this is for anybody - is the eventual disappointment that comes with having to meet other versions of reality. Imposed systems that ask you to compromise or sacrifice things which you consider holy or sacred.
Billy Corgan
My pat line about the Cubs and payroll is that the amount of merchandise the Cubs would sell off a world series championship would more than cover for a big payroll.
Billy Corgan
I like my home and I like the nature.
Billy Corgan
The simplest way that I can understand therapy is that we're born a certain way, we're taught to be something different, and we spend our whole lives trying to unravel it.
Billy Corgan
Rock in the mainstream culture has lost a lot of its mojo.
Billy Corgan
Where is this great love for rock and roll that existed for 50 or 60 years?
Billy Corgan
The title of a song is like the wrapping on a present.
Billy Corgan
I do not think wrestling is going to save the world.
Billy Corgan
In the music business I am surrounded by people who don't view music as a sacred voice. They view music as something that they can use and exploit, often times lazily. They have no sense of the tradition, they have no sense of honor about those who came before and charted the path.
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
For a 6-foot-3 guy with no hair and a whiny voice, I've done all right.
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
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
The weird nihilism that permeates Mellon Collie is extremely relevant to what's going on right now. So many kids are intelligent and articulate, but they don't know what to do with themselves.
