Robyn Hitchcock Quotes

Dreams are a scientific fact Picture Quote #1

I’m not really a good singer. But most people aren’t, either Picture Quote #1

People from the past always seem to have much more time to create beautiful, intricate, delicate things that often reach the future in a kind of curled-up, capsized state Picture Quote #1

Most songs are somewhere between love and death, and mine are no exception Picture Quote #1

I thin many people’s deviant behavior starts with dreams because dreams are so non-linear... as if there’s an assumption that everything has to be linear or has to be plotted Picture Quote #1

In this world of doubt, one thing is certain for me; that I will go on writing songs up to and - I hope, through heavenly means or diabolical - beyond the day I die Picture Quote #1

The Beatles were something everyone had in common; this was thirty years ago, there was Dr. Who and everybody knew who the Daleks were and there was the Beatles and everybody knew who George Harrison was Picture Quote #1

When you think about great teams, the Beatles and the Pythons immediately spring to mind. The Pythons were as much a part of their time as the Beatles Picture Quote #1

Superman, Superman, crunchy little Superman. Found you in a Cornflakes box Picture Quote #1

People in the future look back on primitive machinery or technology or painting, and in some ways, it always seems amazingly intricate and finely wrought Picture Quote #1

There’s nothing in the future and there’s nothing in the past. There is only this one moment, and you’ve got to make it last Picture Quote #1

I don’t advocate Stalinist monolithic state structures any more than I advocate capitalistic monoliths. Unfortunately, human society tends to the monolithic, whether you go to the left or right, everybody in leathers, or everybody holding Chairman Mao’s book, and if everybody goes to one end of the pitch, I always go to the other Picture Quote #1

One of the ideas behind doing this acoustic record is that I didn’t want to have to produce it by committee Picture Quote #1

I’m 63. It’s kind extraordinary that I’m out here at all and people want to see me Picture Quote #1

Just as with a guitar, you can improvise a guitar solo, and they’d probably be similar each time, but they won’t be exactly the same. With the word, it’s probably a bit freer than that. I probably repeat myself more musically than I do verbally Picture Quote #1

If I played just one song from every album, I would be onstage for two and a half hours. No one wants a show that long Picture Quote #1

I would be quite happy never to play any of my better-known songs again. But unless you’re Dylan, you can’t afford to completely disregard what your audience wants Picture Quote #1
