I started playing bass for the same reason everyone else does – I’m a lousy guitarist.

I hate saying that youth is wasted on the young since it's so f**king stupid, but I think you realize if you're fortunate enough to realize what you have, you don't want to sleep as much or squander any time. It's weird, but early in your career you don't stop to smell the roses since you're too busy picking them.

Music's awesome, it's the closest thing we have to magic.

I always said that the world is a better place because of Joey Ramone

There's no way you could get me onstage with someone that I didn't like. No way. I would never do that. We have our gripes and stuff like that. All bands have their drama, but life is too short to be miserable around somebody that you don't like.

For me, it's important to get back to fundamentally what it feels like to be an American. We all come from different backgrounds, but we come together and create this world. It's like a microcosm for the rest of the world. I want people to feel unity when they come to a show.

I have nothing to prove. I just want to follow the music. I love making records. I love playing live. That's it. There's nothing outside of that. I look forward to the weirdness that's in front of us every day.

Early on I learned to question everything. But I feel like everything is so divisive right now. Going against the grain would be to not be divisive and be inclusive. That's the disruptive way to go about it.

Dogs are gonna take over the world. It's a known fact for those who believe it, kinda like the Bible.
Mike Dirnt
Sometimes you need coffee, and sometimes you need a Bloody Mary.
Mike Dirnt
I love our country. My dad served in the army. I always grew up with a song sense of belonging as an American. But I was also in the counterculture and I was coming from a place of fearing the police. So I was anti-establishment, but also loving your country. It's kind of an ironic sort of upbringing.

A turtle does come in it's own bowl
Mike Dirnt
At the end of the day, if you follow the music, it'll take you on a really, really great journey
Mike Dirnt
I don't really give a f**k about the mainstream. The mainstream doesn't offer me anything. Why would I offer it anything? I love the world I have. I love the sort of subculture that Green Day represents.
Mike Dirnt
Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one.

I'm an optimist, so I believe in some sort of life after death I don't know what kind.
