More quotes by Billy Corgan
These days you're not just competing with the tedium, you're competing with the cellphone.
Billy Corgan
Do I belong in the conversation about the best artists in the world? My answer is yes, I do.
Billy Corgan
I know how stupid people can be. I've played in front of 5,000 people that bought a ticket to my concert, and some guy who's bought a ticket decides he's going to throw a bottle at my head. That's a simple act of stupidity. That's not even defiance.
Billy Corgan
That's at the root of the human interaction: fair trade.
Billy Corgan
You can only be this high-powered mojo rock band for so long, then you just can't look people in the eye. So, we've projected our own demise.
Billy Corgan

The great thing about rock n' roll is, if you want to fight - like, fight the system, fight the man, fight the government, fight the people in front of you - it's Don Quixote all over again. You're really chasing windmills.
Billy Corgan
My version, of course, is not this flag-waving, let's all get on the Jesus train and ride out of hell. I'm not that kind of guy. It's an embrace that life is good, worth living and yeah, it's not easy, but there are more pluses than minuses.
Billy Corgan
As long as you have faith, you're willing to try to take another chance. God wants you to amble toward the right spot on the horizon. The idea is that you're willing to get up and keep moving toward that light.
Billy Corgan
I think rock & roll has prepared me for a lot of flexibility.
Billy Corgan
Smashing Pumpkins has never been a band about hit songs.
Billy Corgan
It's important for people to talk and get beyond the wall of Facebook and social media.
Billy Corgan
Beware of those angels with their wings glued on.
Billy Corgan
For a 6-foot-3 guy with no hair and a whiny voice, I've done all right.
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
My father was a guitar player, and I was raised with a super high standard of what good guitar playing was.
Billy Corgan
Well, we have brought certain things upon ourselves. I've certainly brought things upon us with my mouth.
