I don't listen to punk any more, unless it's right before I play. Not that I don't like it, it's nostalgic. But, it's for kids and it should be it's not art, it's expression.

I'll eat a nugget of my own poop for 20 bucks. I'll pay you 20 bucks and I'll eat it.

My dad has had a rare form of leukemia since I was in about 7th grade.

The labels can't do anything for a band anymore - they're stuck and they have no money and they're just holding onto contracts that have existed from a time where there were resources.
Tom DeLonge
'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' is the best movie for a guy like me. A cerebral adventure. A moving story. A bunch of little green men.
Tom DeLonge
I think that the needs in human life will change and grow and evolve. I do think that that the importance will always be grander than you would ever believe them to be.

'Love' has that Kubrick tonality to it, but this is not a Stanley Kubrick movie - there will never be another. At the same time, 'Love' has a modern feel. For example: In one scene, these astronauts go through a wormhole sequence, and you feel like you're being slapped around inside your head by a sonic boom.
Tom DeLonge
I believe that working independently will give artists the ability to communicate the full extent of their art and not just a piece of it that might sell.
Tom DeLonge
Most bands, if something goes wrong, they cower and walk off stage and fire people.
Tom DeLonge
The Angels shows are really intense. We play for a couple hours at a time. They're very theatrical and full of audience interaction and emotion. I've seen a lot of people crying and stuff. It's a little bit like church, but it's very secular.
Tom DeLonge
You can do anything you want. And you can be anything you want. And you can feel anything you want. But there's only one thing you need to do, and that is: have the slightest vision to see it. Because if you can't see it happening, then it will never happen
Tom DeLonge
All I can say is hold on, and prepare.
Tom DeLonge
The first song I sent over was Up All Night. People say that sounds like Angels on a Blink record. Well, no - that's just me!
Tom DeLonge
Playing music in the wake of the Blink thing was like finding love in the middle of a war zone.
Tom DeLonge
You’ve got to not only love yourself for who you are with all your mistakes, but you’ve got to love the world for what it can bring you if you have the right attitude
Tom DeLonge
Maybe I do wanna become a woman, so what is the crime in that?
Tom DeLonge
My whole life has been completely about being underestimated. I remember when Blink signed to a major label, and we had a debut party for the signing. No one came to party, only the guy that signed us. And I remember sitting there, like, S**t, no one likes this.
Tom DeLonge
I have to make music. If I don't do it, I go crazy.
Tom DeLonge
They say Einstein died while he was still trying to figure out gravity. I think I'm going to die still trying to figure out some of the things about Blink.
Tom DeLonge
Dreams are things that could potentially be treating you as a pupil to teach you things so when you wake up, you'll be able to handle certain elements from those dreams in a better way.
Tom DeLonge
I've realized that I love all forms of music and get excited when any artist goes crazy and creates something that is an experience.
