More quotes by Amos Lee
Genre, to me, is not all that important, and it never has been.
Amos Lee

Amos Lee
Nothing is more powerful than beauty in a wicked world.
Amos Lee
The closest place that I feel like I come to having religious moments is always musical.

Amos Lee
We all need a place that we can go, And feel over the rainbow
Amos Lee
Across the board, from my mother to my father to my aunts and uncles, everybody has always given me a lot of love.
Amos Lee
Theres nothing but spirit in music. Thats all it is. Yeah, theres a lot of intellectual elements to it, but no matter how you approach it, its all spirit.
Amos Lee
I don't really hang out with a lot of celebrities.
Amos Lee
I like down-to-earth people.
Amos Lee
As an experience, as a listener, for me, I miss the record store. I miss going in and knowing the guy at the counter and being like, Hey, knowing that he was going to hate the record I put on the counter, and still buying it. That takes some guts.
Amos Lee
