Mike Dirnt's
"Dogs are gonna take over the world. It's a known fact for those who believe it, kinda like the Bible."
「犬類將接管世界。就那些信徒而言這是個顯而易見的事實，聖經就是其中一種。」
"Don't blame me for the explosion of punk rock. I didn't know our music was going to get that big."
「別把龐克搖滾的爆裂性推到我身上。我不知道我們的音樂有這麼偉大。」
"We write music for ourselves and if other people like it, that's great."
「我們是為了自己寫音樂，如果其他人喜歡，那也很棒。」
"If my kid didn't rebel, she wouldn't be my kid."
「如果我的孩子不會反抗，她就不是我的孩子。」
"I'll remember 1994 as the year that....ate shit.... "
「我會記得1994那年的樣子……吃屎去吧……」
On Good Riddance: (Time of Your Life): "Putting that song on our record was probably the most punk thing we could do."

(At Mark Hoppus of blink-182): "Stop throwing shit or I'll jump in there and beat your ass."
（對Blink-182的貝斯手Mark Hoppus說）：「停止這狗屎噪音，要不然我會跳上去踢你的屁股。」
(Speaking of blink-182): "Seriously, at first I was happy for them, but now I find it a little irritatign. I think they trivialise what we do, and punk rock in general. It's like throwing shit in the face of something or someone that had substance at one point. Didn't one of the members marry someone from MTV? I mean, what the fuck? But if any band should be pissed off at them then isn't NOFX."
（談及Blink-182）：「說真的，一開始我為他們高興，但現在感到有點不爽。我認為他們使我們的所作所為流於平凡，籠統化了龐克搖滾。這就像對著某事或某人的臉扔屎，這就是意義本質。不是其中某人與來自MTV的某人結婚嗎？我的意思是，搞什麼啊？但如果有任何樂團該對他們感到不爽，那也不會是NOFX.」
（NOFX: 危機百科）
"Then all of a sudden we got introduced to punk music and it was the coolest fuckin' thing"
「我們開始走向龐克音樂是蠻突然地，而這他媽的是最酷的事。」

「有時候一星期我就會打了很多巴掌，但其他時候我會變得冷淡且孤僻，看都不想看到我老二。」
（spank: 用手打屁股或對人甩巴掌的動作。口語中有在性愛中互摑屁股以增加興奮度的意思。Mike大概是說有時候做愛做得很猛有時候不太想做。）
"I don't really listen to it...I'm agnostic." (When asked about if he liked UK pop music)
「我真的沒在聽……無法評論。」（當被問到他對英國流行樂的看法）
"Now are any of these vegetables magic? I mean if I rub that bean on my foot will I run faster?"
「現在有任何蔬菜的魔力嗎？我的意思是如果我把豆子拿來抹我的腳我會跑得更快嗎？」

「換個燈泡需要幾個龐克搖滾樂手？（Tre: 幾個？）呃，嗯，嗯，讓我想想，兩個！一個去換燈泡一個來吸我老二。」
（這是他們早期(1992)的雜誌(Flipside)訪問內容的一部分，詳見此）
"It's no use analyzing your life the whole time. Those analyses won't help you when you're dead."
「心理分析對你的人生是沒有用的。當你死了，那些分析根本幫不到你。」
Tré's
"I have a homosexual crush on most adolescents."
「我的同性迷戀對象大多數是青少年。」
(Talking about Mike taking a shit off the hotel balcony): "She was so pissed, so she was gonna make us leave the hotel..but she didn't. big mistake!"
（說到Mike在飯店陽台上放狗屎）：「她非常生氣，所以她要把我們趕出飯店……但她沒有。大錯特錯囉！」
"It's, like, an ok tour bus and all, but people see book mobile on the side and come up and ask us if we have any book to sell. I mean how stupid is that....books? We don't even read."

"Music has never been at a better time then it is right now, we're really lucky to be a part of this wonderful thing called music."
「音樂從來沒有比此時此刻更棒過，我們真的很幸運成為這精彩音樂的一部分。」
"You'd think we were really good at writing songs or something."
「你會了解到我們真的擅於寫歌，或諸如此類的。」
(To LAUNCH.com on the US's action after the WTC bombings): "I object. I object to any killing at all. You know, it's terrible what happened and I think retaliation definitely makes sense and it's definitely one option. But, personally, I prefer peace. You know, maybe I'm just being ignorant and shortsighted, you know, it's true I'm not running the government, I'm not running the United States. I just don't think that killing people is a good way to remedy people dying. Martin Luther King Jr., said that you can murder a murderer but you can never murder murder itself."
(To LAUNCH.com on the US's action after the WTC bombings): 「我反對。我反對任何形式的殺害。你知道的，發生的事是很可怕，而我想，報復是很明確的感受也是很明顯的選擇。但以個人而言，我選擇和平。你知道的，或許我是沒受過什麼教育且缺乏遠見，你知道的，事實上我沒有治理的能力，不是我在管理美國的。只是我不認為殺害他人是安撫罹難者的好方法。馬丁路德金恩說過，你可以殺了殺人兇手，但你永遠無法消滅謀殺行為本身的意義。」
(On Who's Most Accident Prone): "It used to be Mike, but lately I've been catching up."

（pork: 美式口語上有政府為攏絡民心而撥出款項或提出些有利於民的政策之意。也就是所謂的＂政治牛肉＂和＂利多政策＂）
"You know, I knew the day that George Bush was elected president that we were in deep, deep sh-t. I knew it. I was like, 'Well, some sh-t's gonna hit the fan now,' 'cause, you know, the Bush family's been in the politics business for way too long to not have crazy enemies."
「我們都知道喬治布希選上總統的那天我們深深地，深深地感到不爽。我懂。我就像＂好吧，現在某些狗屁事會打回狂熱者身上，＂因為布希家族在政場上太久了，久到沒人會瘋到去做他們的敵人。」
（enemies 是敵手(政敵)名單）
"``Satan. Satan, Satan,'' he chanted. ``That's what's different. We're all firm believers in Satan now. We think Satan is cool. ``How the fuck do you think a band like Green Day got popular?'' (talking about how he doesn't belive they sold out)"
＂撒旦。撒旦，撒旦＂他吟誦著。＂這就是特別的地方。我們現在全都是撒旦的忠實信徒。我們認為撒但很酷。＂要不然你他媽的以為像Green Day這樣一個樂團怎麼會受歡迎？（談到為何他不相信他們受到歡迎）

"You can't fuck with us now. We did it. We pulled it off." (talking about the record that was stolen and how they created a better album anyway)
「現在你不能惡搞我們了。我們做到了。也等於我們丟了那些。」（談到關於失竊的音軌，不管怎樣，他們都做出了更棒的專輯）
"I can suck my own."
「我可以吸到自己。」
"Life is like breakfast you just mix all ingredients cause in your stomach it will all come together."

「（我才沒捏你屁股）是你自己捏自己的屁股。」（周末夜現場中Tre'與Cameron Diez(卡麥蓉狄亞)的對話）
"I told my dad yeah I'm going to be a drummer and he said well of you can rub your stomach at the same time as you pat your head at the same time you're standing on one leg and kicking the other one out in a circle and say the pledge of allegiance. And I did all that just like bam you know?"

"Do you have the time to listen to me whine? Good. If you don't like Green Day, you're stupid." - Nick Rose, Pulse Weekly
「你有時間聽我抱怨嗎？很好。如果你不喜歡Green Day, 你就是蠢蛋。」- Nick Rose, Pulse Weekly（暫譯：節奏週刊）
"I remember working in the L.A. clubs, and these bratty kids showed up. They had such attitude, but as soon as they played, it was like, 'Anything I can do to help you guys ...' They're still bratty. They haven't changed in 10 years. They're just older brats." - Warped Tour founder Kevin Lyman
「記得我在L.A.的俱樂部工作時，那些討人厭的小鬼出現了。他們看上去充滿敵意，但很快的他們開始演奏，那就像，＂我可以幫你們這些人做任何事……＂他們依然討人厭。他們跟十歲時沒兩樣。他們只是多長了幾歲的死小孩。」- Warped Tour founder Kevin Lyman（Warped Tour創辦者Kevin Lyman如是說）
（Warped Tour的介紹。由此可見GD能被Kevin Lyman講成這樣其實是很大的恭維啊！XD）
