Song Quotes

If the religious experience were simply some naive impression of the uninformed it would not have resulted in such intellectual insight, such spiritual exaltation, such spectacular religious ritual, or in the immense volume of song and poetry and literature and dance that humans have produced Picture Quote #1

I do like a song that can look good on a page without even being sung. I edit and edit and edit Picture Quote #1

The things a man has to have are hope and confidence in himself against odds... And he must be ready to choose death before dishonor without making too much song and dance about it Picture Quote #1

I say, as a singer grows older, his conception grows a little deeper, because he lives life and he understands what he is trying to say a little more. And I think this gives. If a singer tries to find out what’s happening in life, it gives him a better insight on telling the story of the song he is trying to sing Picture Quote #1

When you touch and change peoples lives with a song, that’s when you’ve made it as an artist Picture Quote #1

A song ain’t nothing but a conversation fixed up to where you can talk it over and over without getting tired of it Picture Quote #1

Sometimes the fragment of a conversation, the color of the sky, the image in a dream, has everything to do with where the song begins Picture Quote #1

My mum’s an opera singer: I grew up watching her get swept up in music and transform herself into characters. She taught me that music is a lifelong journey, and that with every day and every song and every gig you learn something new Picture Quote #1

My advice for people is to love the world they are in, in whatever way makes sense to them. It may be a devotional practice, it may be song or poetry, it may be by gardening, it may be as an activist, scientist, or community leader. The path to restoration extends from our heart to the heart of sentient beings, and that path will be different for every person Picture Quote #1

You’re not going to hear me do a rap song, you’re not going to hear me do a jazz song. We have to be true to our roots, do what we do, and try to do it a little better each time Picture Quote #1

The forest is peaceful, why aren’t you? You hold on to things causing your confusion. Let nature teach you. Hear the bird’s song then let go. If you know nature, you’ll know truth. If you know truth, you’ll know nature Picture Quote #1

Music is still the one thing that ties people together. People can come together from all different religions, walks of life, colours, creeds and enjoy the same song. That’s still the most incredible thing to me about performing live Picture Quote #1

A folk song is what’s wrong and how to fix it or it could be who’s hungry and where their mouth is or who’s out of work and where the job is or who’s broke and where the money is or who’s carrying a gun and where the peace is Picture Quote #1

Be strong! It matters not how deep entrenched the wrong, how hard the battle goes, the day how long, faint not, fight on! Tomorrow comes the song Picture Quote #1

If you forget the words to your own song, you can always claim artistic license. Forget the words to the national anthem and you’re screwed Picture Quote #1

I’m not a very good singer. I just know how to present a song, and honey, I think I’ve been through enough to do it right Picture Quote #1

A song is like a smile. If you meet people from another country, even if you don’t speak the same language, you know what a smile means. A song works the same way. Music produces feelings that need no translation Picture Quote #1

The heavenly motions... are nothing but a continuous song for several voices, perceived not by the ear but by the intellect, a figured music which sets landmarks in the immeasurable flow of time Picture Quote #1

All I really need is a song in my heart, food in my belly, and love in my family Picture Quote #1

Set your guitars and banjos on fire and before you write a song smoke a pack of whiskey and it’ll all take care of itself Picture Quote #1

The wind comes creeping, it calls to me to come go exploring. It sings of the things that are to be found under the leaves. It whispers the dreams of the tall fir trees. It does pipe the gentle song the forest sings on gray days. I hear all the voices calling me. I listen. But I cannot go Picture Quote #1

A great song should make you stop everything that you’re doing. You should be so into it that you just can’t imagine doing anything else for that moment. You wouldn’t even dream of picking up the phone Picture Quote #1

Art, a book, a painting, a song, can definitely inspire change, whether it’s a small change or a big change but you know there’s novels I’ve read or a scene in a film that I’ve seen where I definitely inspired something and made a change or addressed an issue in my life or done something cliche like make a phone call Picture Quote #1

Shakespeare’s work is like a good song: you never really forget the main lines Picture Quote #1

A lot of times when songwriters get together and write a song... somebody will come in with a hook and a lot of times they come out with something that sounds a little crafty Picture Quote #1

If I do a song where I’m angry, when it’s time to perform it live I’m not mad, I’m happy. I’m at a concert. But I have to somehow drum up that rage. That’s acting Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to do romantic roles where I have to lip sync to a song. A role that explores romance on a new level would suit me Picture Quote #1

Anyone who knows anything should know you cannot take a master track of a recording and write another song over the top of it. You just can’t do that. You can call it a tribute or whatever you want to call it, but it’s against the law. That’s a problem with some of the younger generation, they don’t understand the concept of intellectual property and copyright Picture Quote #1

The song, to me, is about what it is to be a human, what it is to love someone as a human being, and organizations that would undermine that, and undermine the more natural parts of being a person Picture Quote #1

As a musician and a guitar player, I can noodle as well as anybody. But from my background as a session musician, I always try to play what is called for by the lyric and listening to the song. As a writer, that’s what I do, too Picture Quote #1
