Speed is absolutely key to creativity. The more time it takes to create something, the less likely you are to create something.

More quotes by Patrick Stump
Between Prince and my dad's fusion-jazz records, I didn't have a choice in being funky.
Patrick Stump
I was going to record a solo album when I was 15 on a four-track. I started working on it, but then Fall Out Boy happened. The band was awesome and took me in a totally different direction. I don't regret it at all, but the band delayed the record I had been planning.
Patrick Stump
I don't see the songs as uplifting, but rather as trying to make lemonade from lemons, or whatever. When I listen to them, I understand the context. I don't like to pepper songs with my own experiences, though.
Patrick Stump
I love Korean food, and it's kind of like home to me. The area that I grew up in outside Chicago, Glenview, is heavily Korean. A lot of my friends growing up were Korean and when I would eat dinner at their houses, their parents wouldn't tell me the names of the dishes because I would butcher the language.
Patrick Stump
The song that's affected me the most profoundly is probably Michael Jackson's 'Thriller,' or, more specifically, the couple seconds of instrumental break before Vincent Price starts 'rapping.'
Patrick Stump
The music business is one of a few places where everything you've heard about it seems entirely cliche, but it's true.

Stray thought for the day: Putting boundaries on how punk should sound/look is the least punk rock thing one can do. Be yourself=Very punk.
Patrick Stump
I love New Zealand. Every time I'm in New Zealand someone makes a joke about it being mostly sheep, which I think is unfair, because it's mostly nice people. It's mostly nice people and really wonderful scenery.
Patrick Stump
When you make art, you get really invested in it. When art happens by accident and you were just along for the ride? It's way more fun.
Patrick Stump
I'm very much a night person. Morning is a thing I only experience because I have to.
Patrick Stump
When you're No. 1 or No. 300, you still get to play and write the songs.
Patrick Stump
For some people, home is family and their mom's house or their girl or whatever, and I have those experiences as well, but the biggest thing for me is Chicago. I don't know how to explain it.
Patrick Stump
Sometimes before it gets better, the darkness gets bigger. The person that you'd take a bullet for is behind the trigger.
Patrick Stump
I look at albums like novels. If you write a really good scene or a really good moment, just because you wrote it, doesn't mean that it fits with the story that you're writing.
Patrick Stump
I've learned a lot about things because of the Internet. I'm happy with it, but it's a long road for me. I'm still definitely a little anti.
Patrick Stump
I don't mind if someone thinks I'm a sell out. I go to bed happy knowing I do what I do and I'm not doing anything for reasons of money, and if I were trying to pick up chicks, I'm doing a horrible job. And if I wanted to drive awesome cars, I'm doing a really bad job there too.
Patrick Stump
Self-deprecating or arrogant, it's all selfish. Hard as it is, life's better when you spend more time on the rest of the world
Patrick Stump
There's a certain fear of simplicity. I think that's the thing when you're younger as an artist you get this idea in your head that complexity equals quality. The more notes you're playing, the better.
Patrick Stump
You could be your own spotlight!

I was talking to my grandpa last Thanksgiving. He pulled me aside and was like, This Thanksgiving is the 150th for the Vaughn family in Chicago. I was like, Cool, whatever, but I think when you have a culture like that, you should have a real appreciation for it. My family's been there forever and I don't want to leave.
