Gerard Way : (5)

" I had a couple of really cool friends when I was a kid, and we’d find cool music and movies and show them to each other. My friend Dennis had a copy of ‘A Clockwork Orange’ and he’d already seen it once, and he was like, ‘We need to watch this.’ I was sleeping over his house – and I think we were literally 15 – and we watched it. " - Gerard Way

" A lot of kids get disappointed. They expect me to be, like, ‘Bwaah.’ ‘If I spend a minute with them, they end up saying, ‘Wow, you’re a nice, normal guy.’ They hate it when they catch me out of my makeup. " - Gerard Way

" I’ve always seen My Chemical Romance as the band that would have represented who me and my friends were in high school, and the band that we didn’t have to represent us – the kids that wore black – back then. " - Gerard Way

" ‘Watchmen’ is a politically charged story, and it explores exactly what a hero is, how the world would treat them and how they would react. It was the first time I read a superhero story that explored that situation. These are very real people with very real problems. " - Gerard Way

" I understand that kids look up to me, that some people might have gotten sober because of me. " - Gerard Way
