More quotes by Mark Hoppus
Maybe people would be surprised to know that I listen to old Neil Diamond albums from time to time. The man rocks. I defy anyone to prove me wrong.
Mark Hoppus
It usually happens spur of the moment, like when I broke up My Chemical Romance, it was just that day that I decided it was time for them to be done. And people were very upset about it so I have to choose my next victims carefully.
Mark Hoppus
Everything in high school seems like the most important thing that's ever happened in your life. It's not. You'll get out of high school and you never see those people again. All the people who torment and press you won't make a difference in your life in the long haul.
Mark Hoppus
There was a great push and pull of what Blink-128 should sound like all the time. Travis Barker comes from a different background than I do, and Tom DeLonge comes from a different background than either of us in terms of what we write and what we think a song should be. Tom pushes me out of a box that I put myself in.

A real punk is punk on the inside.

Antarctica is otherworldly, like nothing I've ever seen before. Stark, cold, beautiful desolation.
Mark Hoppus
My parents were pretty lenient with me. But, they gave me morality while I was growing up. They taught me the difference between right and wrong.
Mark Hoppus
What I love about Blink-128 is that we write catchy melodies with dark lyrics.
Mark Hoppus
It's a real challenge to complete a story arc and end up with a cool punchline in 120 characters.

If at first you don't succeed, pay someone else to do it for you.

I really enjoy helping a band form their sounds and ideas from initial spark to completed album. Being a producer is different in that, at the end of the day, it is not my art. It's THEIR art, THEIR ideas, THEIR message.
Mark Hoppus
California to me as a concept or as an idea always seems like endless optimism and endless opportunity - when people think of California they think of palm trees and blue skies and gorgeous sunsets and beaches and everything else.
Mark Hoppus
I still feel like we're the underdogs, but I feel like people respect us now. People might not like our band or love our music, but I think people respect the fact that we've been doing this for many years and are still doing it and still able to play three giant New York City shows and have people come out.
Mark Hoppus
I dated the same girl all through high school.
Mark Hoppus
Being a producer is a very different experience than writing my own songs.
Mark Hoppus
I think that happiness is a great thing to strive for, but very difficult to maintain - people are always striving for something different, and something better.
Mark Hoppus
No matter what, I think people are trying to better themselves, or to better their situation, or to find something new and exciting.
Mark Hoppus
The last few years I became a lot more into sports. Growing up, the sports I liked were independent sports, like skateboarding. I was really into skateboarding, and not necessarily team televised sports.
Mark Hoppus
I just want everyone out there to know that I'm super-awesome and a great guy and really cool to talk to and that I appreciate all the support.
Mark Hoppus
During the downtime on tour, I simply walk from room to room, staring into my computer.
