More quotes by Gerard Way
Remember the first time you went to a show and saw your favorite band. You wore their shirt, and sang every word. You didn't know anything about scene politics, haircuts, or what was cool. All you knew was that this music made you feel different from anyone you shared a locker with. Someone finally understood you. This is what music is about.

The boys and girls in the clique. The awful names that they stick. You're never gonna fit in much kid, but it you're troubled and hurt, what you've got under your shirt will make them pay for the things that they did!

As long as somebody is guaranteed a certain number of sales you know you're gonna keep seeing these vanity projects. I mean they have a place, they serve a function they can bring people into comics.

Are you on our side...and want to be different, or are you on that side and want to throw a football at my head!?

I went to art school and interned at DC, and then did the band. When that stuff comes up, you've gotta embrace it and run with it for as long as you can, and I did. I did that for as long as I felt I could.

I got sunburnt which is obviously a drag for me because in theory the sun is supposed to kill me.

We [My Chemical Romance] didn't push ourselves to that next level. I think we purposefully held ourselves back, feeling like maybe in order to advance, we need to regress. There was definitely a sense of fear within the band about taking that next step.

I am who I am. There’s no facade. No put-on. And being voted sexiest doesn’t concern me. Maybe that’s the sexy part.

There's Doom Patrol, which is the world's strangest superheroes, and they're making their return.

Drinking beer doesn't make you fat, it makes you lean...Against bars, tables, chairs, and poles.

Make your life your art. It doesn't have to be that you're an artist. I know I talk about art a lot, but I mean a very broad thing with that. You could be a veterinarian, that's your art. Find your art find your thing you love.
Gerard Way
The Black Parade has to go home soon, so you're gonna be stuck with My Chemical Romance. I'm sorry. That singer has a despicable mouth, he dresses funny, and he can't sing!
Gerard Way
Let me tell you how the story ends, where the good guys die and the bad guys win. It doesn't matter how many friend you make, but the graffite they write on your grave.
Gerard Way
I don't think having a My Chemical Romance action figure will make a kid start his own band, I like to think it will make him save children from a burning building.

The whole thing about comics is the reason I think you shoot to be a comics author is because it's a very solitary activity and that you sit down and you're arguing with yourself that's kinda the plan.
Gerard Way
Suicide is a serious thing. And if you know anyone who is suicidal, you need to get them help. No one should be in pain. Everyone should love themselves.

I do enjoy manga but would not consider myself a 'super-fan,' only really connecting with certain works such as 'Lone Wolf and Cub,' or 'Tekkon Kinkreet,' the more breakthrough works, and 'Akira,' to me, is the daddy of them all.
Gerard Way
Like, you should never want to hurt yourself. You should love yourself.

What I like about The Sims is that I don't have a normal life at all, so I play this game where these people have these really boring, mundane lives. It's fun.

So many people treat you like you're a kid so you might as well act like one and throw your television out of the hotel window.
