"Music to me it's uhh... the air that I breathe, the blood that pumps through my veins, that keeps me alive. So uhh, without it, I - I dunno what I'd do - I mean, I'd probably have a job or something... people say to me, 'What would you do if you didn't have Green Day?' - Or you know, people say, 'What do you think of people that only talk to you or like you because you're in Green Day?' And I say, 'Well, I AM Green Day. That is me... that is, my life."

 — Billie Joe.
