A Missive To All You

If You're Really Going To Uncover Something As An Artist, You're Going To Come Into Access With Parts Of Your Personality And Your Psyche That Are Really Uncomfortable To Face: Your Own Ambition, Your Own Greed, Your Own Avarice, Your Own Jealousies, And Anything That Would Get In The Way Of The Purity Of Your Own Artistic Voice.

I Get More Out Of Life Just Being Myself, By Just Being A Human Being. Not By Being A Rock Star, Not By Being Whatever. Sometimes I Act Like A Jerk, But I Think People Respect Me For Being Myself. That's The Ultimate Thing About The Smashing Pumpkins.

Soon You Won't Even Have The Choice To Live Or Die As You Wish!

I'm Like The Fugitive, Running From The One-armed Indie-rock Community!

A Good Artist Is Willing To Die Many Times Over. What's Funny Is, I've Died So Many Times.
