There's nothing wrong with being a loser, it just depends on how good you are at it.
Making mistakes is a lot better than not doing anything.
Minority is about being an individual. It's like you have to sift through the darkness to find your place and be that individual you want to be your entire life.
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.
School is practice for the future, and practice makes perfect. But nobody's perfect, so why practice?
Punk is not just the sound, the music. Punk is a lifestyle.
Punk has always been about doing things your own way. What it represents for me is ultimate freedom and a sense of individuality.
I sort of enjoy the fact that I'm misunderstood most of the time. That's fine.
I'd love to go to art school. I'd love to learn how to draw. I'd love to be fluent in Spanish. I'd like to be a brain surgeon.
I sound like an Englishman impersonating an American impersonating an Englishman.
I never thought being obnoxious would get me where I am today.
No one's really happy anyway, it's not human.
Music - that's been my education. There's not a day that goes by that I take it for granted.
Our passion is our strength.
We're not a political band. We don't want to tell people what to do or what to think. We just want to tell them to think.
I'm very monogamous.
Moshing and broken glass just don't go together.
I'm a father. It isn't just my life any more. I don't want my kid finding bottles in the house or seeing his father completely smashed.
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.
