A fax from Billy to a reporter who said the pumpkins sucked
"I'm glad that i'm such a good rhymer,
better than being a social climber,
just because i'm a bit brighter,
than some fucking writer"

"I used be afraid to die, but now I think I'm more afraid to live."

"I'm not going to die glamorously. I'll probably be eating a Twinkie, take a bite, and fall over."

"If you hear one of our songs on the radio and it's chopped up- You call that radio sation, and tell them they're fucking stupid!"

"Stay in school- Lie to your teachers, but stay in school."- Billy to the fans at an sp concert.

"My mother came to a Smashing Pumpkins gig once, and I was wearing a dress...she was very upset. She said, 'Everyone's gonna think you're a fag.' I said,'Well, they already think I'm an asshole."

"I'd probably be the guy your brother buys pot from or something."-Billy during an interview when asked what he'd be doing if he wasnt playing music.

"If I had spent fourteen months in a small room with Jesus, I'd want to fist fight with him."

"We don't make music for people to take drugs to, we make music for people to live their life."

"For a 6'3" guy with a whiney voice, I've done alright."

"I want our music to come across as someone is whispering into your ear and going right inside your brain."

"I hate how in magazine pictures, they always stick me somewhere in the back. It means they don't think I'm the cute one."

"Remember, Nagroc is Corgan spelt backwards. Don't you fucking forget that!"-Billy during a recent concert.

"Once a pumpkin, Always a pumpkin."

"My favorite are the people who sit down during the songs they don't like and stand up during the ones they do- those are my favorite people. Go ahead and sit down cause you're not gonna like this one so..If you're bored already, I would, I would just go. You've already heard most of the hits so...We'll keep trying though."-Billy during a recent concert.

"How cute. A big bird doll with a zero on his chest...I am against the...disgrace of innocent sesame street dolls...I was molested by big bird himself once....when I saw that thing flying at me, it brought back alot of painful memories...I can't tell you what he did to me...But, he does have that long beak..."-Billy reacting to when a fan threw a big bird stuffed animal at him during a concert.

"I was a jock, but I wasn't on the sports team. I played guitar, but I dodn't hang out with the stoners. I just couldn't hang in any way, and when you're young and you can't hang, you oppose. So I was anti-everything, fuck you all."

"There's a lot of UFO sightings in New Orleans, which isn't really too surprising. There's a lotta crazy people there. The people there lack the intelligence to know what they are seeing, so that's why the UFO's go there."

"I'm no messiah, I'm just some dumb mid-west guy."

"Fan Question: Hi James. My friend says that you were or are a woman. But then I also read that you were dating D'arcy. So which one was true?
Billy: He is a woman, and he was involved with D'arcy.
James: I'm trying to do a lot of things these days."
-Billy and James' humorous little answer to a fan's question.

"Interviewer: Billy, what's your biggest hope for the album?
D'arcy: The biggest hoke?
Billy: No, no, this is serious.
D'arcy: Oh, sorry.
Billy: That, uh, the album will create a resolving harmonic in each person and..world peace will be consummated and from that will be born babies..who will buy our records.
Interviewer: And what if that doesn't happen?
Billy: Then we'll just have to come find YOU and kill YOU!!
D'arcy: I'll just be happy as long as people don't use the CD's as frisbees," Billy and D'arcy during an interview before Mellon Collie was released.
