Sometimes you need coffee, and sometimes you need a Bloody Mary.

For me, when you get to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, there's a side of me that goes, "What does that mean? Are you still relevant after that? Do they put you on the shelf along with the award?" I don't know, but that's the last thing we wanted.

I always said that the world is a better place because of Joey Ramone

Green Day is like sex, when were good, were really good, when were bad . . . were still pretty damn good.

Grab life by the balls and squeeze.

When people start writing songs for award shows, there's a very limited palette you can use. You end up not sounding like you. You end up sounding like somebody else. You end up getting what the record company thinks they can market.

Happiness is a road traveled, not a destination.
