Quotes
"A few times during the making of the album, he got so deep into what he was doing that you felt he had lost track of the rest of the world. I've worried about him a few times. But we talk a lot. That's the cool thing about the relatioship. He never just holds everything back. We talk about everything.. I'm European and have a different way of living, and I've been trying to teach it to Billy. I think Americans have a tendency to concentrate so much on thier work that they forget there is a life out there. In Europe, you live to live... and I think Billy is beginning to understand that."

" What is so amazing about this relationshipis it exsists on two very important levels.We have a total love connection as a man and a woman, witch is very deep. At the same time , because we are both artists, there is a total support and understanding for each other's work... I don't feel I have to explain my obsession. I don't have to explain why I am in the studio for 16 hours a day. She understands..my life has improved tenfold since meeting Yelena. My relationship with people, my enjoyment of my work, my appreciation of others artists..."
-Billy Corgan talking about his girlfriend, Yelena Yemchuck.-
Billy: Believe me yelena is..a.. she'd make you
forget anyone you ever knew..
Yelena: Well thank you...
Billy:sorry I had to tell you on the radio..

It's not surprising that Corgan is half an hour late for an 11 a.m. interview.
What is surprising is that he arrives arm-in-arm with a woman he introduces as
his girlfriend. "This is Yelena. Is it okay if she joins us?"

Yelena Yemchuk, because he has been notoriously private about his personal life,

feelings.
"We have a total love connection as a man and a woman, which is very deep. At
the same time, because we are both artists, there is a total support and
understanding for each other's work. I don't feel I have to explain my
obsession. I don't have to explain why I am in the studio for 16 hours a day.
She understands..."
