You just reach a point sometimes with somebody where it just doesn't work.

You have to be willing to deal with the ups and downs of the music, the ups and downs of the audience.

You have to keep adapting to the times. If you kind of go with it, it can kind of fun.

These days you're not just competing with the tedium, you're competing with the cellphone.

You know Americans are obsessed with life and death and rebirth, that's the American Cycle. You know, awakening, tragic, horrible death and then Phoenix rising from the ashes. That's the American story, again and again.

From Billy Corgan

I'm from a lower middle class background; all my family were immigrants.

From Billy Corgan

I started thinking that if post modernism is about people opening up all their skeletons, I'm going the other way. I don't want anyone knowing anything about me anymore.
