Цитаты Билли Корган
„It's about the girlfriend who left me last year. I tried to put all my anger in those words, even though I'm just as much to blame for the break-up. 'Soma' is based on the idea that a love relationship is almost the same as opium: it slowly puts you to sleep, it soothes you, and gives you the illusion of sureness and security. Very deceivable.“
regarding "Soma"; van den Berg, Erik. "Smashing Pumpkins." Oor. 10 June 1993.
„This is not a reaction against a negative world. It's a response to a negative world.“
regarding Adore, Guitar World. July 1998.
„I'm Irish and I was born on St. Patrick's Day. I'm lucky sevens.“
Corgan, William. Interview. Chicago Sports Channel. April 1997.
„The Pumpkins love rock-and-roll, we absolutely love it, but we also think it's a flatulent, ego-serving kiddie playground. You can have your cake and eat it too.“
"Out on a Limb." Details Magazine. October 1996.
„We're like a really nice drink. We help people get through the day--we make life a little sunnier. I don't think we have any profound effect. If anybody has had a profound effect, it's The Beatles, and their effect is still minimal. There are things in the world way more important than music. Family is 50 times more important than music.“
Corgan, William. Interview. Playboy. (Month?), 1997.
„…Instead of taking the 'I'm cool, I hope you adore me' path (with my music), I chose the path of how to connect. I think that's the reason a lot of people feel a deeper connection with our band than other bands, and I also feel that's why people polarize on us. If you don't get it, it seems preposterous; if you do get it, it's really heavy -- it has a weight to it.“
"Mellon Collie and the Infinite Success." LIVE! Magazine. August 1996.
„…What people miss about (Marilyn) Manson is that he is just reflecting, he's an artist, people want to focus that energy on him, but it's not really him, it's really about you. So for every guy sitting there with a beer and a.45 in his belt, Manson is just speaking to that end of society. He's speaking as an artist. He's not speaking as himself, and that's where people get really lost with Manson.“
Corgan, William. Interview. 1998 Pre-Grammy Show. MTV. 25 February 1998.
