Billie Joe Armstrong

“הזמן מגיע, והוא הולך לשום מקום. אף אחד מעולם לא אמר שהחיים היו הוגנים.”

“אור אחד, דעה אחת, מנצנץ בחשכה, עיוור מהשקט של אלפי הלבבות השבורים.”

“צעד מחוץ לשורה, כמו כבשה שבורחת מן העדר.”

“בכל פעם כשאנחנו מופיעים אנחנו חושבים לעשות משהו מיוחד, להתפשט על הבמה, או אולי לזרוק עץ חג מולד לקהל המחורבן.”

“השיר הזה הוא לא אנטי אמריקאי, הוא אנטי מלחמה!”

“אתה האויב הגרוע ביותר של עצמך, דע את האויב שלך.”

“If you have children, you don't want to have drugs and drinks in the house. It's just not good.”

“I hate celebrities. I really hate them.”

“Punk has always been about doing things your own way. What it represents for me is ultimate freedom and a sense of individuality.”

“The thing about punk is that there are purists. Once you start going outside of that, they don't think what you're doing is punk rock.”

“Punk will never be dead to me. It's my life. I can never just drop this lifestyle. It embodies me.”

“I sort of enjoy the fact that I'm misunderstood most of the time. That's fine.”

“I would definitely say the Oakland Raiders are the punk rock band of football.”

“What annoys the hell out of me is the arrogance of some people. They don't even listen to our music, they decided in advance that they don't like it.”

“And you don't want to always write about politics just for the sake of writing about politics.”

“I think it's your own choice if you turn from an angry young man to a bitter, old bastard.”

“I'm not going to conform to some consumer need.”

“If journalists ask you again and again about the same bands, you'll end up saying you hate them just because you're so fed up with being asked all those stupid questions.”

“I never thought being obnoxious would get me where I am today.”

“Making mistakes is a lot better than not doing anything.”
