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.

More quotes by Mark Hoppus
What I love about Blink-128 is that we write catchy melodies with dark lyrics.
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
Music is in every country and every culture around the world. It's universal.
Mark Hoppus
True happiness for me is playing a concert in Blink-182, and then hanging out with my friends and my wife and son, and going out for Mexican food.
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
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.

I think age is just a stupid number.
Mark Hoppus
I don't think of them as teenage songs. The things that happen to you in high school are the same things that happen your entire life. You can fall in love at 60 you can get rejected at 80.
Mark Hoppus
The collectability of music is something lost in the age of MP3s and album downloads. Holding an album in your hands and having the full-sized artwork reconnects the artist and the listener.
Mark Hoppus
Make yourself do something stupid so when you really do something stupid you won't feel so bad
Mark Hoppus
I don't think any of us felt like, Oh, we need to put joke songs on the record. If we found something funny, we would record it, and if we wanted to, we'd put it on the record. It's not really something we spent too much time agonizing over.
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
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
Being a producer is a very different experience than writing my own songs.

Antarctica is otherworldly, like nothing I've ever seen before. Stark, cold, beautiful desolation.

The past is only the future with the lights on

Hard work, studying and perseverance will get you no where in life......it's all about kissing ass
Mark Hoppus
Then when we did the untitled record, we just didn't feel like putting joke stuff on it, so we didn't. It wasn't really a deliberation or a real introspective thing like, Are we going to joke on this one, are we not going to joke on this one? We just didn't feel like it on the untitled one, so we didn't.

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.

A real punk is punk on the inside.
