More quotes by Mark Hoppus
The thing you realize as you get older is that parents don't know what the Hell they're doing and neither will you when you get to be a parent
Mark Hoppus
Thats not a place where I'm considered good-looking.
Mark Hoppus
Writing music and lyrics that mean something personal to me. It's an exciting, intense, cathartic, this-is-who-I-am experience.
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
A real punk is punk on the inside.

What I love about Blink-128 is that we write catchy melodies with dark lyrics.
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.

There is nothing more awkward and more laughable than a naked dude with his wiener flopping.

Thank God I never got in a fight. All of the jock dudes hated me, but all of their girlfriends thought I was nice so they wouldn't touch me. It was infuriating to them.

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.

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
The Beatles never get old.
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
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.
Mark Hoppus
During the downtime on tour, I simply walk from room to room, staring into my computer.
Mark Hoppus
I did mostly good things, except light things on fire.
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.
Mark Hoppus
The process of introducing people to new music is amazing. It's a gift. One of the best parts of any day is when someone says, 'Hey, check out this new band...'
Mark Hoppus
I liked seventeen-year-old me, I was happy when I was seventeen. I was this troubled goth kid that wore eyeliner and make-up to school and listened to punk-rock music and I loved my friends and I started to make music - I like seventeen-year-old me.
