About Green Day
Green Day adalah band punk rock asal Amerika yang dibentuk pada tahun 1987 di Berkeley, California. Band ini terdiri dari trio Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt, dan Tre Cool. Green Day sangat diakui karena keberhasilan mereka dalam membuat genre punk rock kembali terkenal, bersama-sama dengan Sublime, The Offspring, dan Rancid
Pada tahun 1990, bersama dengan drummer pertama mereka, John Kiffmeyer, Green Day merekam album pertama mereka, 39/Smooth. Namun pada tahun yang sama, Tre Cool menggantikan menggantikan posisi drummer John Kiffmeyer yang keluar karena ingin melanjutkan kuliah. Tré Cool kemudian mulai berkontribusi pada album kedua Green Day, Kerplunk, dan telah menjadi anggota tetap sejak itu. Album terobosan Green Day, Dookie, yang dirilis pada tahun 1994, berhasil mendapatkan status diamond dari RIAA dan membawa Green Day ke puncak karier mereka. Namun, bertolakbelakang dengan Dookie, tiga album Green Day berikutnya, berturut-turut Insomniac, Nimrod, dan Warning, gagal mendapatkan sukses seperti Dookie. Meski Insomniac dan Nimrod berhasil mendapatkan status platinum dan Warning mendapatkan status emas, ketiga album tersebut justru memperlihatkan popularitas mereka yang secara keseluruhan menurun drastis. Adalah album rock opera mereka pada tahun 2004, American Idiot, yang mengembalikan popularitas mereka, terutama dengan penggemar dari generasi yang lebih muda. American Idiot terjual lebih dari 5 juta copy di Amerika Serikat sendiri. Album kedelapan mereka, 21st Century Breakdown, dirilis pada 2009 dan berhasil mendapatkan kinerja chart terbaik sepanjang karier Green Day. Green Day berencana akan merilis album trilogi dalam selang waktu lima bulan terhitung sejak September 2012. Ketiga album tersebut benama ¡Uno!, ¡Dos!, dan ¡Tré!.
Green Day telah menjual lebih dari 65 juta copy album mereka di seluruh dunia dengan 24,639 juta di Amerika Serikat sendiri. Green Day telah memenangkan 5 penghargaan Grammy Awards: Best Alternative Album untuk Dookie, Best Rock Album untuk American Idiot, Record of the Year untuk "Boulevard of Broken Dreams", Best Rock Album untuk kedua kalinya untuk 21st Century Breakdown dan Best Musical Show Album untuk American Idiot: The Original Broadway Cast Recording.
American Idiot - Green Day
Don't wanna be an American idiot.
Don't want a nation under the new media.
And can you hear the sound of hysteria?
The subliminal mind-fuck America.
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the idiot nation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For thats enough to argue.
Well maybe I'm the faggot America.
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda.
Now everybody do the propaganda.
And sing along in the age of paranoia.
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the idiot nation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For thats enough to argue.
Don't wanna be an American idiot.
One nation controlled by the media.
Information Age of hysteria.
It's going out to idiot America.
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the idiot nation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For thats enough to argue.
Groucho Marx
Chuck Quotes

“No matter how careful you are, there's going to be the sense you
missed something, the collapsed feeling under your skin that you didn't
experience it all. There's that fallen heart feeling that you rushed
right through the moments where you should've been paying attention.
Well, get used to that feeling. That's how your whole life will feel some day.
This is all practice.”
― Chuck Palahniuk, Invisible Monsters

Green day – Basket Case Lyrics
Do you have the time
to listen to me whine
About NOTHING and EVERYTHING
all at once
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone
No doubt about it
Sometimes I give myself the CREEPS
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I’m CRACKING UP
Am I just PARANOID?
Or am I just STONED
I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams
SHE says it’s lack of sex
that’s bringing me down
I went to a whore
HE said my life’s a bore
So quit my whining cause
it’s bringing HER down
Sometimes I give myself the CREEPS
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I’m CRACKING UP
Am I just PARANOID?
Uh,yuh,yuh,ya
Grasping to CONTROL
So I BETTER hold on
Sometimes I give myself the CREEPS
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I’m CRACKING UP
Am I just PARANOID?
Or am I just STONED
to listen to me whine
About NOTHING and EVERYTHING
all at once
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone
No doubt about it
Sometimes I give myself the CREEPS
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I’m CRACKING UP
Am I just PARANOID?
Or am I just STONED
I went to a shrink
To analyze my dreams
SHE says it’s lack of sex
that’s bringing me down
I went to a whore
HE said my life’s a bore
So quit my whining cause
it’s bringing HER down
Sometimes I give myself the CREEPS
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I’m CRACKING UP
Am I just PARANOID?
Uh,yuh,yuh,ya
Grasping to CONTROL
So I BETTER hold on
Sometimes I give myself the CREEPS
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I’m CRACKING UP
Am I just PARANOID?
Or am I just STONED

One More Night - Maroon 5
You and I go hard at each other like we're going to war
You and I go rough, we keep throwing things
and slamming the door
You and I get so damn dysfunctional, we stopped keeping score
You and I get sick, yeah, I know that we can't do this no more
But baby there you go again, there you go again, making me love you
Yeah, I stopped using my head, using my head, let it all go
Got you stuck on my body, on my body, like a tattoo
And now I'm feeling stupid, feeling stupid,
crawling back to you
So I cross my heart and I hope to die
That I'll only stay with you one more night
And I know I said it a million times
But I'll only stay with you one more night
Trying to tell you no but my body keeps on telling you yes
Trying to tell you to stop, but your lipstick got me so out of breath
I'd be waking up in the morning, probably hating myself
And I'd be waking up, feeling satisfied but guilty as hell
But baby there you go again, there you go again, making me love you
Yeah, I stopped using my head, using my head, let it all go
Got you stuck on my body, on my body, like a tattoo
And now I'm feeling stupid, feeling stupid, crawling back to you.
So I cross my heart and I hope to die
That I'll only stay with you one more night
And I know I said it a million times
But I'll only stay with you one more night
Yeah, baby give me one more night
Yeah, baby give me one more night
Yeah, baby give me one more night
You and I go rough, we keep throwing things
and slamming the door
You and I get so damn dysfunctional, we stopped keeping score
You and I get sick, yeah, I know that we can't do this no more
But baby there you go again, there you go again, making me love you
Yeah, I stopped using my head, using my head, let it all go
Got you stuck on my body, on my body, like a tattoo
And now I'm feeling stupid, feeling stupid,
crawling back to you
So I cross my heart and I hope to die
That I'll only stay with you one more night
And I know I said it a million times
But I'll only stay with you one more night
Trying to tell you no but my body keeps on telling you yes
Trying to tell you to stop, but your lipstick got me so out of breath
I'd be waking up in the morning, probably hating myself

Quotes

“Don't say you don't have enough time. You have exactly the same
number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur,
Michaelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and
Albert Einstein.”

Louise Erdrich quotess

“Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living
alone won't either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning.
You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on
earth. You are here to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up.
And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt,
or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to
the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness.
Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could.”
― Louise Erdrich, The Painted Drum LP

Ayn Rand quotes

“Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the
hopeless swamps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do
not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life
you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire can
be won. It exists.. it is real.. it is possible.. it's yours.”
― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
John Quotes

“There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are
afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all
that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need
to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our
imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our
ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all
hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted
vision of people who embrace life.”
― John Lennon
― John Lennon
May Sarton quotes
Gilda Radner quotes

“I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that
some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning,
middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the
moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to
happen next.
Delicious Ambiguity.”

“How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.”
― Anne Frank
― Anne Frank

“If the world were merely seductive, that would be easy. If it
were merely challenging, that would be no problem. But I arise in the
morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy
the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.”
― E.B. White

Payphone - Maroon 5
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
All of my change I spent on you
Where have the times gone
Baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?
Yeah, I, I know it's hard to remember
The people we used to be
It's even harder to picture
That you're not here next to me
You say it's too late to make it
But is it too late to try?
And in our time that you wasted
All of our bridges burned down
I've wasted my nights
You turned out the lights
Now I'm paralyzed
Still stuck in that time when we called it love
But even the sun sets in paradise
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
All of my change I spent on you
Where have the times gone
Baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?
If happy ever after did exist
I would still be holding you like this
All those fairytales are full of sh*t
One more stupid love song I'll be sick
You turned your back on tomorrow
Cause you forgot yesterday
I gave you my love to borrow
But just gave it away
You can't expect me to be fine
I don't expect you to care
I know I've said it before
But all of our bridges burned down
I've wasted my nights
You turned out the lights
Now I'm paralyzed
Still stuck in that time when we called it love
But even the sun sets in paradise
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
All of my change I spent on you
Where have the times gone
Baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?
If happy ever after did exist
I would still be holding you like this
All those fairytales are full of sh*t
One more stupid love song I'll be sick
Now I'm at a payphone...

Quotes

“This life is what you make it. Not matter what, you're going to
mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But the good part is you get
to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends -
they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, somg go. The
ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best
friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best
friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And
babve, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them
are going to break your heart, but you can't give up becuase if you
give up, you'll never find your soul mate. You'll never find that half
who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail
once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold
on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you
don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin
up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing
and there's so much to smile about.”

Stephenie Meyer's love quote

“Before you, Bella, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark,
but there were stars, points of light and reason. ...And then you shot
across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was
brilliancy, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had
fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but
my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn’t see the stars anymore.
And there was no more reason, for anything.”

“I love you also means I love you more than anyone loves you, or

never will love anyone else.”

J.K Rowling quotes

“There was a clatter as the basilisk fangs cascaded out of
Hermione's arms. Running at Ron, she flung them around his neck and
kissed him full on the mouth. Ron threw away the fangs and broomstick he
was holding and responded with such enthusiasm that he lifted Hermione
off her feet.
"Is this the moment?" Harry asked weakly, and when nothing happened except that Ron and Hermione gripped each other still more firmly and swayed on the spot, he raised his voice. "OI! There's a war going on here!"
Ron and Hermione broke apart, their arms still around each other.
"I know, mate," said Ron, who looked as though he had recently been hit on the back of the head with a Bludger, "so it's now or never, isn't it?"
"Never mind that, what about the Horcrux?" Harry shouted. "D'you think you could just --- just hold it in, until we've got the diadem?"
"Yeah --- right --- sorry ---" said Ron, and he and Hermione set about gathering up fangs, both pink in the face.”

Quotes of love
