There's nothing more satisfying than going to a market and meeting the person who picked the strawberries, or it's their farm that the strawberries came from, and giving them a fair value in exchange for what they're giving you.

More quotes by Billy Corgan
I think the days of working with producers in the conventional sense are over for me.
Billy Corgan
You have to keep adapting to the times. If you kind of go with it, it can kind of fun.
Billy Corgan
You have to be willing to deal with the ups and downs of the music, the ups and downs of the audience.
Billy Corgan
I like my home and I like the nature.
Billy Corgan
What most people do is try to find a comfortable persona that they're in alignment with and the public likes and appreciates them for.
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
For someone who's had the level of success I've had, there's been very little critical review of my work, which is pretty fascinating.

Most great records really start with the drums.
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
I rummage around in artistic things from the past. If you don't understand the context, they wouldn't make any sense. I rummage around in conceptual ideas of the future, but if you don't know the source of the thinking, [it] wouldn't make any sense.
Billy Corgan
I'll come in with a string of riffs and direct the musical ideas. But you still need a band and their input to make the ideas come alive. You can't underestimate band chemistry.
Billy Corgan
I want to make great songs.
Billy Corgan
I don't wanna play this kind of cartoon character anymore.
Billy Corgan
Beware of those angels with their wings glued on.
Billy Corgan
Most people don't know that wrestling came out of the circus.
Billy Corgan
I usually wake up far after breakfast. That's as much as you're going to find out about my dietary requirements other than marijuana and vodka.
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
We weren't like mates who decided to form a band. The other three met me because they were interested in being in the band that I was starting.
Billy Corgan
We love cats more than we love women [with Marilyn Manson].
