Musician Quotes

I speak my mind and come from a place of conscience, as well as have fun as a musician Picture Quote #1

I get to focus on being a musician sometimes, and I get to focus on being a vocalist sometimes Picture Quote #1

I’m an example of someone who never made it to university. I did have this dream to be a musician. I felt that this dream had an expiration date Picture Quote #1

I grew up in a time when being a musician and learning to be a musician was actually very wonderful Picture Quote #1

The great artist, whether he be musician, painter, or poet, is known for this absolute unexpectedness Picture Quote #1

I’m a terrible musician. While the band members are great, I’m tolerated and affectionately regarded because I do movies, but if I had to make my living as a musician I would starve. I’m like a Sunday tennis player Picture Quote #1

One day, a musician asked me what I did. When I told him I was to be a businessman, he laughed and said, You are not a businessman. Sometimes all it takes is one person to put an important thought in your head, and he did Picture Quote #1

TLC has helped me to know that as a musician, I can talk about anything; that there are no barriers, and that you can be yourself. That’s what I love about them. Left Eye in particular helped me to stay on top of my A game. She’s one of the best female MCs that I’ve heard Picture Quote #1

Billy Joel is an incredible musician. He just feels like one of the guys, you know. I grew up listening to his music Picture Quote #1

I would not want the limitations held by the name of a classical musician. I want many people to enjoy my music much beyond just classical music fans. I think the term, ‘violinist,’ keeps me distant from the audience. I want to communicate with them more Picture Quote #1

From their 61 Cavern Club debut to their last rooftop concert eight years later, The Beatles gave every serious artist in their wake the songbook and sound for their career. It’s the musical trough from which nearly every musician drinks Picture Quote #1

I would say that for the younger musicians, technical proficiency is necessary and a given these days. But the study and the way you function in society, your beliefs and the way you live, that is where you will find a real musician, a real artist Picture Quote #1

I don’t really have a career as a jazz musician. I don’t really have a career as a classical musician. I don’t really have a career as a college professor, and yet I did all those things and I did them well. I put out some records in the 1980’s and 1990’s that changed the way some trumpet players played Picture Quote #1

If I wrote something just for a musician and not for a soundtrack I would have no inspiration from scenes or from the story. It’s like if a painter sees a beautiful scene and he paints it. If he’s in his home it’s not the same Picture Quote #1

There’s really no reason for any musician, writer, actor to ever take themselves seriously. If you work in a needle exchange, take yourself seriously. You’re doing good work. If you’re involved in hostage negotiations and saving lives, you can have a sense of entitlement Picture Quote #1

I was working as a cocktail waitress in a heavy metal bar. Then, my manager said I should try some acting, which led to an audition Satisfaction, where I played a musician in an all-girl band. That movie is where I met my future ex-husband Jody Porter Picture Quote #1

I love the power of the musician who composes and performs. I envy their ability to put a nugget of truth in three minutes of sweat and emotional outpouring, colored entirely from their thoughts Picture Quote #1

As a filmmaker, like any artist, when something affects me emotionally I think about it in those terms. It’s my way of dealing with my thoughts, my fears and my hardships. I think the same can be said with any artist. For a musician, you’re going to write a song about something that affects you emotionally Picture Quote #1

I’m African American, I’m a lot of other things, a musician and an artist. But that woman part holds the most pain for me. And therefore, obviously, the most lessons Picture Quote #1

Most of the people in my family were pretty funny. Everyone had a good sense of humor. I came to California right after college, wanting to be a musician Picture Quote #1

Every time I see a musician - it doesn’t matter what age - that inspires me, there’s always a secret little wish that maybe we’ll play together, because that’s how I learn and grow and so forth, you know. But hopefully there’s a lot more Picture Quote #1
