"There have been tours where we hit a different Wal-Mart almost every night"
"This record is for you. Be yourself, don't take abnyone's nuts, and never let them take you alive...thanks for catching me when I fall, and thanks for being brave." (to the fans)
"I need one of those plastic magazine racks, so I can organize my Dungeons and Dragons books."
"I dont think that having a My Chemical Romance action figure will make a kid start his own band. I like to think it will make him save children from a burning building."
"You see us playing these songs about ficticious gunfights, cowboys, electric chairs, and getting f**ked in jail"
"The abstraction is there for a reason. It's for people to get what they want out of it. This band is therapy for us. What we're saying through the preformance is This can or cannot be therapy for you, too. Either way, we'll still do it."
"I was once that exact kid, the one who came unto the city from Jersey to hang out on St. Marks Place and act like a punk."
"Something just clicked in my head, and that was when i said, f**k art for the first time. Art's not doing anything for you. It's just something on a wall, completly disposable, and it's not helping anyone."
"f**k breakfast monkey, because all its gonna do is line somebody else's pockets. I felt i had given my life to art, and it had betrayed me." And then i saw Thursday perform at this club for fifty people, and it changed me."
"We just went out there and tryed to destroy things. I didnt want people to stand there and look at it like it was art. We wanted it to be explosive and cathartic."
"Helena is an angry open letter to myself for being on the road so long and missing the last year of her life."
"But really its about two boys living in New Jersey who lost their Grandma, and how their brothers in the band helped them get through it."
"There's so much I want to say about real life now. We're starting to see the beauty of the world and to truly understand our relationships with other human beings like our loved ones."
"It's important to keep up momentum, when I'm home alone I get stagnant, I go crazy and have to see my therapist. Being on the road keeps me busy. I'm okay when I'm busy."
"This song (Give 'Em Hell Kid) Is about getting Knocked Up. Has anyone ever gotten Knocked Up?"
"I'd rather be a creature of the night than an old dude."
"It erases everything I hate about myself. Nothing can hurt me. I feel completely invincible. I feel like everyone else on that stage is invincible and we're capable of anything. There's no stopping us."
"So many people treat you like you're a kid so you might as well act like one and throw your television out of the hotel window"
"It takes a while to tell stories, I think it's because I was drunk for three years."
"There's such a lack of sex in music..."
"So how was Christmas for you guys? Did you get lots of nice black tee shirts?"
"Um, lots of people grab I disagree. I'm actually starting to get this thing now where people grab my package. That actually happened once in Boston, it usually doesn't happen. We went over to England and it happened at almost every show. I don't really enjoy any kind of invasion of privacy like that I guess. Just the moment you're on stage it doesn't phase you or bother you too much though. Grabbin my package is obviously a total invasion of privacy I'm not into that at all. Grabbing my butt I guess if it were a guy I'd enjoy it. I mean, I guess it all depends on how he grabbed my butt too."
"If for one minute you think you're better than a sixteen year old girl in a Green Day t-shirt, you are sorely mistaken. Remember the first time you went to a show and saw your favorite band. You wore their shirt, and sang every word. You didn't know anything about scene politics, haircuts, or what was cool. All you knew was that this music made you feel different from anyone you shared a locker with. Someone finally understood you. This is what music is about."
"When you are kissing a guy with a beard , it's different."
"You should see me as a chick."
"Yeah, obviously we use vampires as a metaphor for something else, something deeper than just the supernatural. But there's just something about the bloodsucking walking dead, that can say so much to people. There are really so many people trying to get control over you on a daily basis and steal your soul in some way, take a part of you..."
"The Devil got landed with a shitty job, he has to deal with assholes everyday, he's probably bored as hell."
"Craziest thing that ever happened to me was being attacked by a black bird. It pecked the nuts out of my head. We were at this hotel called The Phoenix in San Francisco. We were leaving to go to a show the next morning and the bird just f**kin' attacked my head. And the next day Slipknot were there, they were coming in as we were leaving, and they got attacked by birds too."
"I feel like there’s so many people out there who have kids in the palm of their hand, listening, but there are so few people saying something."
"Are these pants too tight for ya?" (Warped Tour '05, Chicago.)
"If you're racist, prejudice, homophobic, or just a plain asshole...go home. get out of the audience, out of the park, don't listen to us, return our CD. Just go the fuck home." (Warped Tour '05, Chicago.)
"I wanna screw all of Chicago!" (Warped '05, Chicago)
"How many ladies in the house tonight!? *Fans scream* Oh, shit... All you ladies scream! *Fans scream again* Now that I have the ladies' attention, I want to tell you something. Some day, you're going to go to a concert and see a rock star. He may look like me, or him, or us, or any one, and he's going to tell you if you show him your tits he'll take you backstage. And I want you.... to spit in that mother fucker's face! *Fans scream* Because you are better than that!"
"It's like the drag fairy coming and saying 'What would you like to do?' Um, yeah karate"
"Do you want to FUCK me CHICAGO!?!? Do you want to FUCK me in my bed, under my sheets.... Do you want to DAAANCE?"
