My Son Quotes

I love hearing my song on the radio the first time, but when it comes on again, I change the station. I already have so much of the spotlight on me. I don’t need any more Picture Quote #1

When I was working a lot, I felt guilty as a parent. I couldn’t pick up my son every day from school, bake him cookies and that kind of thing Picture Quote #1

Only now that my son was gone did I realize how much I’d been living for him. When I woke up in the morning it was because he existed, and when I ordered food it was because he existed, and when I wrote my book it was because he existed to read it Picture Quote #1

Asking me to describe my son is like asking me to hold the ocean in a paper cup Picture Quote #1

Wealth, my son, should never be your goal in life. Your words are eloquent but they are mere words. True wealth is of the heart, not of the purse Picture Quote #1

I am a warrior, so that my son may be a merchant, so that his son may be a poet Picture Quote #1

Dreams are composed of many things, my son. Of images and hopes, of fears and memories. Memories of the past, and memories of the future Picture Quote #1

Ah, to be a bird. To fly the skies, sing my song, and best of all occasionally peck someone’s eyes out Picture Quote #1

My son did not show signs of a money deficiency until he opened his small fist in the nursery and found it was empty Picture Quote #1

After a long day of trying, to make my songs pay, making love all day against the wall in the hallway Picture Quote #1

I don’t force it. If you don’t have an idea and you don’t hear anything going over and over in your head, don’t sit down and try to write a song. You know, go mow the lawn... My songs speak for themselves Picture Quote #1

The little I am exposed to hurts my feelings. The only things I can really control are my songs and my behavior. The rest? If I focused on it, that would lead to insanity Picture Quote #1

I’m not that complicated. My complications come out in my songs. All you need to do to be my friend is like me Picture Quote #1

Despite what I say in my songs, its never okay for a man to put his hands on a female Picture Quote #1

What I didn’t realize is how completely consumed I would be by my sons. I didn’t know that the rest of my life would become so little a priority Picture Quote #1

My son even if you want to fall, at least fall where your bones can be gathered Picture Quote #1

I seldom remember my father, but I sneeze and rub my nose the way he did. I also love my son with grief and anger, as he did Picture Quote #1

If you don’t like my songs, don’t hear it. If you don’t like my music videos, don’t watch it. If you hate me, I don’t care Picture Quote #1

I am happier when I love than when I am loved. I adore my husband, my son, my grandchildren, my mother, my dog, and frankly, I don’t know if they even like me. But who cares? Loving them is my joy Picture Quote #1

I will not vote to send my sons, or your sons, daughters, brothers, sisters or friends to fight for a stalemate Picture Quote #1

I want my son to grow up in a place where the people are more powerful than the government and not the other way around Picture Quote #1

My songs can make you cry, take you by surprise at the same time, can make you dry your eyes with the same rhyme Picture Quote #1

I feel some kind of duty to be really, really honest as a writer. The same is true of my songwriting Picture Quote #1

My greatest blessing has been the birth of my son. My next greatest blessing has been my ability to turn people into children of mine Picture Quote #1

I wish myself to be a prop, if anything, for my songs. I want to be the vehicle for my songs. I would like to colour the material with as much visual expression as is necessary for that song Picture Quote #1

I was terrified the first time that I had a big problem in my business. I was obviously terrified when they diagnosed me with cancer in 1994. I was terrified when my son used to drive too fast. But I do believe in the fact that fear is not an option, so I always try to face it and not be afraid Picture Quote #1

Perhaps because my relationship with my father went through such a long, bumpy time, it’s been very important for me to work to try to keep lines of communication open between my sons and myself to try to avoid my father’s mistakes. At least if you’re making mistakes, make different mistakes Picture Quote #1

I truly have a village supporting me. My son has godmothers, godfathers, grandparents and so many others in his life who love him as much as I do. They’re there for both of us. I may not have a mate or husband, but I’m definitely not a single parent Picture Quote #1

Most of my songs have names of people I’ve met or are dear to me. There are people who have privacy issues and about people knowing about their private life. But for me, I like to include few special names and few details about them to make the song very special to me Picture Quote #1

My son, a perfect little boy of five years and three months, had ended his earthly life. You can never sympathize with me; you can never know how much of me such a young child can take away. A few weeks ago I accounted myself a very rich man, and now the poorest of all Picture Quote #1
