Musician Quotes

I really wanted to be a musician, but it turned out I had no sense of time Picture Quote #1

My husband is a musician. He cooks and he’s a chef but he also, he makes basement recordings. So many people in my life make basement recordings, so I feel very lucky, I’m surrounded by very creative people Picture Quote #1

I’m a musician. It’s what I do! I wouldn’t be too good at anything else Picture Quote #1

In most of the stuff that I’ve done over the years as a sideman, I wasn’t really a session musician, because to me, a session musician is a guy who makes his living in the studio, and I never really did that Picture Quote #1

I always wanted to be a musician from when I was kid. It was always a massive dream of mine. School was also really really important to me and having an education was top of my priority. So I really wanted to have a degree before I tried anything in the music industry Picture Quote #1

The life of any musician really doesn’t fall into a normal schedule at all. Every week there are different rehearsals, different days and nights of performances, so we don’t have a particular pattern that we can follow. For a conductor, it is a little bit worse because we have to allow for traveling Picture Quote #1

Most things in my life I had before leaving home. Values, support, great family. I was shaped at an early age. A musician playing guitar, I wanted to be a folk singer Picture Quote #1

Being able to travel the world is pretty cool. There are places that I’ve always wanted to go to but being able to go there as somebody who’s a musician and is recognised as one is cool Picture Quote #1

I am a musician. My passion for music has obliterated everything in its path for my entire life Picture Quote #1

I didn’t have any aspirations of becoming famous or successful; in fact I was scared to death of all that. I remember somebody once said that if a rock musician goes on tour, he goes insane. I was very impressionable and I carried this useless weight of fear around with me about going on tour, all because of this thing somebody said Picture Quote #1

As a musician, I look for certain things that stimulate me. And what I look for is something that’s an evolution on a particular genre that I never heard before Picture Quote #1

I always had a great appreciation for jazz, but I’m a very pedestrian musician. I get by. I like to think that my main instrument is vocabulary Picture Quote #1

I have never imagined doing anything other than football, but now, thinking about it coldly, if I hadn’t been a footballer, I would have been a musician Picture Quote #1

I’m not trying to save the world. As a musician and artist, it just ain’t me Picture Quote #1

I have always been a singer, a writer, and a musician, not as a prodigy or as in a trade handed to me by my parents, but because of an inner voice or maybe a command from beyond reality as it is usually defined Picture Quote #1

You would never hear any song played twice in the same way. The words were retained, but within a certain frame there was great latitude, and the musician could improvise to his heart’s content; and the more the variations and combinations, the greater the musician Picture Quote #1

The musician lifestyle is not easy for most people to understand. This is something I’m struggling with. When you’re on tour, people think you’re just having the time of your life and it’s really romantic Picture Quote #1

Ego cannot bring anything extraordinary into the world; the extraordinary comes only through egolessness. And so is the case with the musician and the poet and the dancer. So is the case with everybody Picture Quote #1

Just as a musician loves music and not nightingales, and a poet loves poetry and not sunsets, a painter is not primarily a person who responds to figures and landscapes. He is primarily one who loves pictures Picture Quote #1

It’s emotional blackmail to say if you’re a good businesswoman and a musician, you’re betraying your music Picture Quote #1

Those who perceive in themselves... the artistic vocation as poet, writer, sculptor, painter, musician, and actor feel at the same time an obligation not to waste this talent but to develop it, in order to put it to service of their neighbour and the humanity as a whole Picture Quote #1

How good are the best musical imaginations? Can a trained musician, swiftly reading a score, tell just how that voicing of dissonant oboes and flutes over the massed strings will sound? Picture Quote #1

The camera was waiting for me by predestination and I took to it as a musician takes to the piano or a painter to canvas. I found that I was master of the elements, that I could work miracles Picture Quote #1

I’ve always had a problem within myself of feeling that people didn’t really see me as a musician and I’m out to get a bit of musical credibility Picture Quote #1

Both of my parents are actually music teachers. I think I got to a certain age where I decided I’d rather be a baseball player than a musician. Now, like most kids, I regret it Picture Quote #1

I’ve seen myself do stuff on stage that was pretty amazing. I think that would be true for any athlete. Any top athlete will see something that they are very proud of. All my injuries will attest to the fact that besides being a musician, it comes down to being an athlete Picture Quote #1

The poet ranks far below the painter in the representation of visible things, and far below the musician in that of invisible things Picture Quote #1

I realized that I don’t like touring. I’ll never complain about it because no one wants to hear about a relatively successful musician complain about the hardships of staying in a hotel Picture Quote #1

I’d been through crappy day jobs and stupid garage bands. I was determined to make it as a musician Picture Quote #1

I played guitar when I was a kid, a little bit. I can tool around with a guitar, but I’m certainly not a musician Picture Quote #1
