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
I don't have a problem being on 'MTV,' and I don't have a problem being on the radio. I actually like it. So there. And anyone that calls me a sell out is just jealous.
Mark Hoppus
It's a real challenge to complete a story arc and end up with a cool punchline in 120 characters.
Mark Hoppus

The past is only the future with the lights on
Mark Hoppus
I don't want to spend a month and a half in a studio with music I don't like, and fortunately I don't have to.
Mark Hoppus
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
I like that about human nature, that people are always striving to do better, and find something new.
Mark Hoppus
I live to play music, and hang out with my wife and kid, and hang out with my friends, and discover the world. Read books, watch movies, see art, see the world, meet new people.
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
Mom's dad was in the army, stormed the beach at Normandy, fought through the French hedgerows, the Battle of the Ardennes, the Battle of the Bulge, and liberated concentration camps at the end of the war.
Mark Hoppus
I grew up the biggest fan of the Cure. Knew every lyric, had every album, B-side, single, poster, everything. Then cut to fifteen years later, and we're working on songs together. Ridiculous.
