Nick Cave Quotes

One of my big fears is drying up, and the more I create, the more I feel myself shrinking beneath the backlog of work I’ve done Picture Quote #1

Early on I realized when you write a song about someone, it flatters them on some level, and gives you a lot of room to move within a relationship. A song can kind of get the girl, for sure Picture Quote #1

My father was a teacher and my mother also worked in the school, so the family has a background in education Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been at war with the guitar. All vocalists are fighting a war with the electric rhythm guitar Picture Quote #1

I have an armchair interest in gardening, but I don’t like to get my knees dirty. I don’t have a garden Picture Quote #1

The only person who can say they’re happy getting old is someone who isn’t actually old yet. Every day, I get less and less happy about that idea Picture Quote #1

No, I wouldn’t direct a movie, no. I couldn’t. I don’t have the patience for it, I don’t have the people skills. You have to be clever. I’m not really clever in that kind of way. And you have to be able to manipulate people, but at the same time allow them to feel like they are manipulating you, to get the kind of movie that you want Picture Quote #1

I'm a believer. I don't go to church. I don't belong to any particular religion, but I do believe in God. I couldn't write what I write about and be creative without a certain form of belief Picture Quote #1

At some point you start seeing the difference between what you really want, and what is your priority order. I feel that today I know what I want. That's the problem with perspective, as well as focus and concentration Picture Quote #1

Getting married, for me, was the best thing I ever did. I was suddenly beset with an immense sense of release, that we have something more important than our separate selves, and that is the marriage. There's immense happiness that can come from working towards that Picture Quote #1

I love rock-n-roll. I think it's an exciting art form. It's revolutionary. Still revolutionary and it changed people. It changed their hearts. But yeah, even rock-n-roll has a lot of rubbish, really bad music Picture Quote #1

I write a lot, and very often I write a couple of lines that are particularly revealing in some kind of way. And then as a few more lines get added and a piece gets added, eventually the song pretty much takes over and you can't really find a way to change those things Picture Quote #1

I'm very happy to hear that my work inspires writers and painters. It's the most beautiful compliment, the greatest reward. Art should always be an exchange Picture Quote #1

God has matured. He is not the impulsive, bowelless being of the Testaments - the vehement glory monger, with His bag of cheap carny tricks and his booming voice - the fiery huckster with his burning bushes and his wonder wands. Nowadays God knows what He wants and He knows who He wants Picture Quote #1

My responsibility as an artist is to turn up at the page or the piano or the microphone. The rest is up to God Picture Quote #1

The actualising of God through the medium of the love song remains my prime motivation as an artist Picture Quote #1

I’ve never been interested in being relevant Picture Quote #1

The blues is instilled in every musical cell that floats around your body Picture Quote #1

I don’t feel I’m thrown around by the winds of taste and fashion Picture Quote #1

I can control the weather with my moods. I just can’t control my moods Picture Quote #1

Death looms large I guess because it should. It’s the one thing that we as human beings from birth have a right to. It’s the only thing we’ve really got, and I don’t mean to sound bleak about this, but it’s a unifying factor amongst us all Picture Quote #1

I have things that I’m interested in, and I’m not really interested in writing about anything that I’m not interested in. But it’s important to me to be able to see it from a different perspective, and add something new to the whole picture Picture Quote #1

I feel very much a part of what I’m writing about, and I’m writing about things that concern me on a daily basis. I’m not really interested in writing musical diaries, if you know what I mean Picture Quote #1

There are times when I think I can sing it better, but usually I find that I can’t Picture Quote #1

It’s very important that the music has a sense of adventure to it, and that it’s done by the seat of your pants. There’s a kind of nervy element about it Picture Quote #1

You don’t meet a lot of people that you really like. I don’t anyway Picture Quote #1

The secret to longevity in the music business is to change, and to be able to change. An actor has to assume other people’s identities. A rock star doesn’t need to do that. But change is important Picture Quote #1

It’s always a risky business inviting somebody on stage. You never know what they’re going to do. I try to avoid letting people join me onstage because it can be very distracting, and overly theatrical Picture Quote #1

In getting older, I find myself becoming progressively more ineffectual in a lot of different ways, and part of that is down to no longer having the youthful feeling that what you’re doing has any true impact Picture Quote #1
