More quotes by Billy Corgan

Billy Corgan
Injuries are nothing to be ashamed about.

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
I think humankind is going to have to evolve into systems that are more transparent. Then people will be able to make more integral choices about the food they eat.
Billy Corgan
Shave your head, wear a 'ZERO' shirt. Take away your identity. What do you have? You still have yourself.

Billy Corgan
When I've tried to reinvent the wheel, I get bashed for not doing the familiar things.
Billy Corgan
In my particular instance, I came from a family that didn't have anything. Everything I earned in life I made. Myself. With songs that I wrote.
Billy Corgan
Not let the child run the circus, just have that child be the source of the creative voice.
Billy Corgan
The desire to hit a big home run is dominating the music business.
Billy Corgan
The title of a song is like the wrapping on a present.
Billy Corgan
Most people don't know that wrestling came out of the circus.
Billy Corgan
Sometimes people just like being around each other, and good things come out of that.
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
Well, we have brought certain things upon ourselves. I've certainly brought things upon us with my mouth.
