Jackson Browne Quotes

Don’t confront me with my failures, I had not forgotten them Picture Quote #1

It’s not like I’m looking to describe something that’s only true of my own circumstances. It’s beyond. It’s way inside, you know. It’s reaching inside to something that you have in common with many Picture Quote #1

Out into the cool of the evening strolls the pretender. He knows that all his hopes and dreams begin and end there Picture Quote #1

Make it on your own if you think you can. If you see somewhere to go, I understand Picture Quote #1

We have an open society. No one will come and take me away for saying what I am saying. But they don’t have to, if they can control how many people hear it. and that’s how they do it Picture Quote #1

In the end, they traded their tired wings for the resignation that living brings. And exchanged love’s bright and fragile glow for the glitter and the rouge, and in the moment they were swept before the deluge Picture Quote #1

The idea that I wrote something that stood for the way I feel about things, and that it lasts, that’s probably my favorite thing that I’ve done Picture Quote #1

Caught between the longing for love, and the struggle for the legal tender, where the sirens sing and the church bells ring, and the junk man pounds his fender. Where the veterans dream of the fight, fast asleep at the traffic light, and the children solemnly wait for the ice cream vendor Picture Quote #1

Lighten up while you still can, don’t even try to understand. Just find a place to make your stand, and take it easy Picture Quote #1

When I really started liking music was when I could play some of it myself, and after a couple of years of playing folk music, I kinda rediscovered those hits that were on the radio all the time when I was a kid Picture Quote #1

Music itself is a great source of relaxation. Parts of it anyway. Working in the studio, that’s not relaxing, but playing an instrument that I don’t know how to play is unbelievably relaxing, because I don’t have any pressure on me Picture Quote #1

It was a great time to be born, because I got to have my own publishing company right from the beginning, so I made more money than somebody would have doing what I did ten or fifteen years before Picture Quote #1

Let the music keep our spirits high, let the buildings keep our children dry, let creation reveal its secrets by and bye Picture Quote #1

As far as those kinds of things, I also played at the concert to call for the release of Nelson Mandela when he was a political prisoner in South Africa. We were celebrating his 70th birthday and calling for his release Picture Quote #1

I look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me through. Looking into their eyes I see them running too Picture Quote #1

That’s maybe the most important thing each generation does, is to break a lot of rules and make up their own way of doing things Picture Quote #1

So I had a couple of years of playing trumpet. I really enjoyed it, but it was not the kind of instrument you could whip out at a party. Let’s face it Picture Quote #1

No matter how close to yours another’s steps have grown, in the end there is one dance you’ll do alone Picture Quote #1

Musician jokes are a kind of joke that usually have to do with how much money someone makes. Musicians are always starving, so they’re really mean to each other about who makes what Picture Quote #1

Like, What is the least often heard sentence in the English language? That would be: Say, isn’t that the banjo player’s Porsche parked outside? Picture Quote #1

I’ve written many extra verses to songs that I learned to sing - an extra verse about a friend, or just add some verse - and that led to writing my own songs Picture Quote #1

I’d have to say that my favorite thing is writing a song that really says how I feel, what I believe - and it even explains the world to myself better than I knew it Picture Quote #1

I wrote the song For A Dancer for a friend of mine who died in a fire. He was in the sauna in a house that burned down, so he had no idea anything was going on. It was very sad Picture Quote #1

Now, guitar was pretty cool. Everybody knew something on the guitar. So I wanted to play guitar, but I told my dad if he wanted me to keep studying something, Id like to study piano Picture Quote #1

And my dad wanted me to play the trumpet because that’s what he liked. His idol was Louis Armstrong. My dad thought my teeth came together in a way that was perfect for playing the trumpet Picture Quote #1

I told my father I wanted to play the banjo, and so he saved the money and got ready to give me a banjo for my next birthday, and between that time and my birthday, I lost interest in the banjo and was playing guitar Picture Quote #1

I love to read. I love to stretch. In the morning, I get up, and if I'm not in a hurry, I will lie on the floor on a rug, look through some books and magazines, and maybe listen to music and try to do stretching exercises to tune up Picture Quote #1

But when you know that you’ve got a real friend somewhere, suddenly all the others are so much easier to bear Picture Quote #1

I’ve been aware of the time passing by they say in the end it’s the wink of an eye and when the morning light comes streaming in you’ll get up and do it again Picture Quote #1

I don’t know what happens when people die. Can’t seem to grasp it as hard as I try. It’s like a song I can hear playing right in my ear. That I can’t sing I can’t help listening Picture Quote #1
