In Fall Out Boy, we were all playing with our pop punk influences, so that was always within that kind of framework.

More quotes by Patrick Stump
He's writing what I'm singing, and I'm writing what he's playing.
Patrick Stump
I lost about 60 pounds. I don't really have a moment specifically that made me do it. I remember little things, like, when I was in Japan, I remember looking around at the portion sizes of a fast food restaurant and being like, 'Well, this has something to do with it.' Americans definitely eat too much.
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
Lyrically, I personally lean towards venting.
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'm very much a night person. Morning is a thing I only experience because I have to.
Patrick Stump
Speed is absolutely key to creativity. The more time it takes to create something, the less likely you are to create something.
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 think you can totally be a totally normal kid from the suburbs of Chicago and go off and play shows. It's one of those things that when you go home, you're still the nerd you were when you left, and your parents still get to yell at you about cleaning up your room, and your girlfriend still drags you to the pet store.
Patrick Stump
I think any good artist - and I'm not saying that I am one - takes notes and should first emulate their heroes and then try to move beyond them.
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 that I made in my band wasn't the expression of everything I was into. Bands are based on compromise.
Patrick Stump
You could be your own spotlight!
Patrick Stump
I'm really attracted to music that sort of toes that line between pop and avant-garde, that pushes the envelope of what you can get in a pop song.
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.
Patrick Stump
I have always loved David Bowie. When he began to experiment with pop music in the 80's, I really thought there was a really fascinating reverence for it. A lot of people looked at pop music as just idiot music, or dance music, and with this he was giving it a lot of respect.
Patrick Stump
Drums were my first instrument, my first love. I need rhythm, something that moves.
Patrick Stump
In reply to 'how do I flirt with people?': Just be yourself and not want anything out of anybody. Desire is the killer of all smoothness.
Patrick Stump
Be yourself! Love your mom, but if she's trying to get you to be someone you're not, she's in the wrong
