Ryan Adams Quotes

I have found in black metal the lyrics are profoundly beautiful... a pathos and mythos at the same time Picture Quote #1

While you can fill every heart as your own full of laughter loud as gold and passion quick as silver Picture Quote #1

To make a song is a gift, and once it’s done it keeps evolving and changing and becomes a tool to interact with other people. It’s like a conversation Picture Quote #1

I kiss her mouth and I know... for everything there is a word... for everything but this Picture Quote #1

I no longer know the author of this book, for simply stopping long enough and writing it down was where I changed from a boy with his eyes squeezed shut to a man with his eyes wide open so that the sunlight might reach my heart despite all that darkness Picture Quote #1

I want to make sure I’m with a girl that’s a good kisser, and that when I wake up, I have coffee and a cigarette. That’s all I really want out of life. That, and world domination Picture Quote #1

I like things that reach a little further and are a little more abstract, but I don’t think that’s what I do naturally well. How I write naturally is probably what’s furthest from me, and the most removed from what I understand Picture Quote #1

I don’t think, that all my stuff could’ve been records. Some, maybe. The ones that I really wanted to be records, those are the ones that are going into the box Picture Quote #1

It’s hard to view myself sometimes as even in the same league as other musicians, mainly because there’s so much music before me. I feel overinformed by different styles and different possibilities Picture Quote #1

I routinely never discuss my marriage. It’s nice to have things in my life that are totally mine Picture Quote #1

I do craft songs, that this is designed. It’s almost like the song was written to produce this desired effect. And it probably really works for somebody. It’s maybe somebody’s favorite tune, and it’s really hard to come down on that, even if I feel a little embarrassed for it. Because some songs are written like a commercial, and that can be a little strange Picture Quote #1

My lifestyle changed when this wonderful person came into my life. I couldn’t sleep for years. all of a sudden, I don’t know why or how, but I slept Picture Quote #1

I would’ve held your mother’s hand on the day you was born. She runs through my veins like a long black river and rattles my cage like a thunderstorm Picture Quote #1

See her smiling at him? That used to be me, and I could find her in a thunderstorm just by the way that the rain would fall Picture Quote #1

I always have to remember that I am the narrator, but it doesn’t have to be about me. A lot of songwriting is about trying to use what part of me is valid in telling the story. I don’t want to overcook it, you know? Sometimes it seems that’s really where the work is Picture Quote #1

I think that music, or at least the kind of music that I make, benefits greatly from improvisation Picture Quote #1

I can sort of will that stuff to happen to me if I put myself in the right headspace. Then I can actually get to a space where it won’t just be one song that comes through, but a series of them Picture Quote #1

This is going to sound crazy, but I can hear music in my head. I can imagine a piano or a guitar playing, and I can sort of think out Picture Quote #1

A lot of my songs, they’re like puzzle pieces, and there’s just one way to put them together. You could, if you needed to, get the scissors out and cut up things to make them work. But I don’t want to do that Picture Quote #1

A lot of the songs I write are like songs that I’ve never been able to find on any record, but that I’ve always wanted to hear. Or maybe in a style I already loved, but I was looking for something in it that I wasn’t hearing yet Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I’ve ever gone on stage to be an asshole. I know one thing, from the past, and that’s that my intentions always began in a pure way. I really want to just try and play the songs Picture Quote #1

That’s why I played music; my social skills were limited. I think a lot of people that experience that pick up guitars, because they can’t communicate otherwise Picture Quote #1

It was never my first choice to be a singer/guitar player. I really wanted to play drums Picture Quote #1

Being a human being is lost. For 120 shows, the one that goes bad is the one that people will talk about Picture Quote #1

I’m not the cool thing, and I’m not going to be the cool thing for a really long time, and it isn’t like I’m not the cool thing and I sell 3,000,000 records every time. I’m not the cool thing, and I barely sell 150,000 records, if that, ever. So I’m obviously working really hard to sustain myself. I’m actually a target to be dropped, because that’s just not enough records for a big company Picture Quote #1

The process of making music is more interesting to me than the end result. If I was a cook, I’d be more interested in cooking food than eating food Picture Quote #1

The good thing about playing the guitar: You can take on different kinds of music. I’m always doing something different from the last thing I did because I have the shortest attention span on earth Picture Quote #1

There are times when I want to be plainspoken about my feelings in a song. But there are other times when it’s really good to try and get my head around different kinds of song structures, or maybe I might get turned on by trying to write a song that would fit in this one scene in a movie. And by the end of all this, you just end up with a bunch of different ideas. And songs are really just ideas Picture Quote #1

Writing and creating, those things come to me on their own. I feel like... you sort of summon them and it’s like allowing the universe to enter your heart in an entirely different way to what it normally does. It’s like inviting that energy of the universe to enter into your craft in a way where it has a meaning Picture Quote #1
