Gerard Way

“One time, Bert and I were making out for so long it wasn't even funny..But then it was funny.”

“I'm the master of the wicket!”

“We have to do it, so there's no point in bitching.”

“You just go with your gut instinct, because your gut is smarter than your heart.”

“Give me a shot to rememberAnd you can take all the pain away from meA kiss and I will surrenderThe sharpest lives are the deadliest to leadA light to burn all the empiresSo bright the sun is ashamed to rise and beAnd I'm in love with all of those vampiresSo you can leave like the sane abandoned me”

“I learned that the world doesn't want to be saved, and it will fucking punch you in the face if you try.”

“The difference we wanna make is number one to let these kids know that they’re not alone, that they’re actually not that messed up and that they can do whatever they want; they can express themselves however they want, without being persecuted or called a faggot or some kind of racist thing. You know, really just to get people to get over their stuff so they can live.”

“I am not afraid to keep on living. I am not afraid to walk this world alone. Honey if you stay you'll be forgiven, nothing you can say will set me going home.”

“One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching”

“I went to school in drag, in art school and my day was completely different because everybody thought I was a chick. You should see me as a chick. So I went as a girl, as like an experiment and it worked really well and everyone was really nice to me but I couldn't talk obviously...you know train conductors were really cool to me on my commute...HA! I looked hot as a chick!”

“Singing songs that make you slit your wrists”

“You can sleep in a coffin,but the past aint through with you!”

“I’ve gotta get out of the basement. I’ve gotta see the world. I’ve gotta make a difference”

“no matter how ugly the world gets or how stupid it shows me it is, I always have faith”

“Sometimes you have to kind of die inside in order to rise from your own ashes and believe in yourself and love yourself to become a new person.”

“I'm not okay.”

“Because one day I'll leave you a phantom to lead you in the summer to join the black parade”

“Well my gun fires seven different shades of shit, so what's your favorite color, punk?”

“Would you destroy Something perfect in order to make it beautiful?”

“Hey girls”

“Can I be your only hope? Because your the only hope for me.”

“IM THE COW BOY OF AMERICA!”

“I just rolled up the window, I couldn't think of anything else to do, phew I'm safe from the .375 gun now that I've rolled up the fucking window”

“Were not a festival band, playing during the day was something we had to get over, I was like uhh this sun stuff kind of sucks”

“Cigarettes and coffee: an alcoholic's best friend!”

“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.”

“It takes a while to tell stories, I think it's because I was drunk for three years.”

“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.”

“If you're gonna buy me a present, don't spend more than twenty five bucks, you'll get a blowjob anyway.”

“I want to be a vampire. They're the coolest monsters.”

“Beach Balls at festivals, are the work of the devil!”

“What I like about The Sims is that I don't have a normal life at all, so I play this game where these people have these really boring, mundane lives. It's fun. My Sims family is called the Cholly family. I don't know why I picked that name; it's kind of random. The teenage daughter is my favourite, because I just had her go through this Goth phase. She's really kind of nerdy and she just became a concert violinist, which is pretty huge for the family. And she got into private school. But she started wearing black lipstick and she dyed her hair purple. It's pretty huge.”

“Who wouldn't want to catch a guy in a bear suit?”

“The band has decided to give him and his wife a much needed break from the road to start a life and have a proper honeymoon and do all the things a newlywed couple should do. I'm very proud to announce my brother's recent marriage. Watching him grow up into a man and finding love makes me the happiest brother alive. I know this is upsetting news, as it is for us, but we will continues to tour with a temporary replacement until he has situated himself in his new life.”

“Craziest thing that ever happened to me was being attacked by a black bird. It pecked the shit 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 fuckin' 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”

“My favorite band at the moment is the Dresden Dolls, they're from Boston. It's a guy and a girl. She plays piano and he plays the drums and she also sings. You can find them on the web they're incredible.”

“Um, lots of people grab my ass. 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.”

“Let's have a day in the life of Gerard."Going to get coffee! Going to get coffee!' That's all it would be.”

“It's for the hamster that I'm gonna buy! This is so perfect!(after opening a hamster wheel at Christmas)”

“None. I think we should send a country some cupcakes. You think some cupcakes would cheer up North Korea? Kill 'em with deliciousness.”

“Everyone back the fuck up! I am not that pretty!”

“So people keep asking me what this badge is for... this badge makes me the sheriff, the sheriff of Emo town, so get your straight irons and eyeliner ready!”

“So how was Christmas for you guys? Did you all get lots of nice black t-shirts?”

“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 reminded me of a meat grinder. From when I was a kid. Going to school it felt like you were in a meat grinder. It chews you up and pours out this mess that can't function”

“I'd rather be a creature of the night than an old dude.”

“Look at me, with my pretty bracelet and tiara... I'm a f****n' princess!”

“It tastes like somebody stole my wallet. Ya know?”

“It's like the drag fairy coming and saying 'What would you like to do?' Um, yeah karate.”
