Jack White Quotes

I don’t think there is room for ‘artistic temperament.’ Professional artists understand art is a business. If businesses ran their companies like many artists do their careers, they would not stay open a year Picture Quote #1

Your passion must be tempered with patience. Maybe long-suffering patience would be a better word Picture Quote #1

I dislike the word ‘emerging artist.’ Emerging connotes to me an alligator coming up from the water. I consider all artists to be artists, not rising, emerging, amateur, beginning, but the real thing Picture Quote #1

I’m excited by the band [White Stripes]. It really excites me. But it wouldn’t excite me if there weren’t those limitations, if we weren’t living in that box, if we weren’t trapped. Once that goes away, then I’ll know that it’s not worth doing it any more Picture Quote #1

It’s hard for me to play seated theaters because people tend to sit down and get a little bit complacent, so it’s less energy. It’s just very dry and dead. People start to feel like they’re watching a movie. The environment when they walk into it, it’s not standing room only, smoking and drinking and rock ‘n’ roll. So it’s a little bit dangerous to do that Picture Quote #1

Punk is an attitude, not a genre, age group, or time period. What’s interesting is trying to define the blues and punk in different ways. They are very close cousins Picture Quote #1

I’ve always loved the word blunderbuss. I’ve always thought that it was a beautiful word and that it could mean several different things Picture Quote #1

There aren’t that many things left that haven’t already been done, especially with music. I’m interested in ideas that can shake us all up Picture Quote #1

I can’t imagine being anything creative in a major town because everybody’s doing the same exact thing you’re doing. How can you not get confused about what you yourself are doing? Picture Quote #1

There’s Catholic guilt about things, then there’s the guilt of being the youngest of 10, so when nice things happen to you, you’re not really allowed to enjoy them Picture Quote #1

The Bottom Line: If people don’t LOVE our work, we will not be able to sell what we make Picture Quote #1

There have been three times. Once I got in a car accident and shattered my finger. A few years ago I didn’t feel like being alive. That’s all I can say Picture Quote #1

I would never be able to live in a huge city. I’d feel like one of 100,000 people doing the same thing Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been making up my own restrictions for myself, from day one, and it’s compelling, because it forces me to think. That’s always been a driving force for me Picture Quote #1

I’ve always worked to find really deep meaning of song and also at the same time having it covered in sugar, so it can be taken two or three different ways Picture Quote #1

Some people consider the way Shakespeare was writing about Ophelia as erotomania-that she was delusional in thinking that Hamlet was in love with her. But I don’t think so Picture Quote #1

Saying you love something out loud with the wrong intonation in your face can damn you and destroy what you’re working on Picture Quote #1

Onstage, I don’t feel any glory from people clapping in the audience, but when they’re pushing me to do something new that feels good Picture Quote #1

A lot of people in the media, and some everyday people, really aren’t in search of the truth. They’re in search of something worse than that. Money, yeah. I think the media’s the kind of a thing where the truth doesn’t win, because it’s no fun. The truth’s no fun Picture Quote #1

In all my songs, I take on roles and play characters. It’s a unique way to explore ideas and decisions I might not think or make in real life Picture Quote #1

I love him (Muse) too much, and you can’t hurt someone that you love that much . . . unless you’re family Picture Quote #1

I think the media’s the kind of thing where the truth doesn’t win, because it’s no fun. The truth’s no fun Picture Quote #1

If what you are doing is working, DON’T change just to be different. Just get better Picture Quote #1

It’s kind of ridiculous that I find inspiration in just getting away from everything. But when you’ve gone through it, you realize that it’s the enemy. It’s a distraction from what you’re really doing. You’ve got to keep moving. Like a shark Picture Quote #1

Our art is an adventure. It is a dream come true Picture Quote #1

Well, I sort of don't trust anybody who doesn't like Led Zeppelin Picture Quote #1

Any man with a microphone can tell you what he loves the most Picture Quote #1
