I've said for years to wives and mothers, you must start to see yourself as Sarah Connor. You must equip your children with the information they need to survive an ever-changing world.

More quotes by Beck
Especially in music, you wonder, Okay, should I still be doing this? Like, are you overstaying your welcome at the party? But I don't know.
Beck
Just out of curiosity, I wonder what makes music or culture or taste go in certain directions. Who knows what the forces are behind it.
Beck
I'm always working on my own music, too. I've been working on a record for a few years.
Beck
I remember you would record a guitar part, and we would have to sit there for 15 or 20 minutes waiting for the computer to process it. You'd see the little wheel spinning on the computer, and you'd be praying that the hard drive didn't crash and you didn't lose the performance.
Beck
I'm the artist formally known as Beck. I have a genius wig. When I put that wig on, then the true genius emerges. I don't have enough hair to be a genius. I think you have to have hair going everywhere.
Beck
I've been arguing with people for 10 years about tape versus digital, and I believe tape is absolutely essential in getting the sound that's conducive to the enjoyment of music.
Beck
I didn't even have a computer until like 10 years ago. I was still using a typewriter until 2002.
Beck
I did that Grammys thing - I did a little freeform poem.
Beck
For the records I've work on over the last 10 years, I get sent the really compressed version and the non-compressed version, and oftentimes you end up going with the more compressed one because it's what people's ears are attuned to. I think the bigger problem is saturation and people being desensitized.
Beck
I didn't want to be on a major label. I wanted all the attention and the noise to go away because I wanted to be something a little bit more substantial.
Beck
Art is the child of Nature yes, her darling child, in whom we trace the features of the mother's face, her aspect and her attitude.
Beck
Sometimes, reissues can be revelatory, or put the original record in a different light, but those are rare.
Beck
You can't write if you can't relate.
Beck
I just go in the studio and write on the spot and see what comes out.
Beck
There's 40 or 50 songs that nobody's heard that I've done in between albums. There's a whole evolution from Midnite Vultures to Sea Change that's never been released.
Beck
I never had any expectations of winning a Grammy. It wasn't something I was set on, that I was hoping and praying and starving for.
Beck
If someone is making a judgment when they don't have firsthand experience, it's intolerant. How can you make a judgment on something you don't know about?
Beck
I have for four years now been ringing the bell. Economic Holocaust is coming. Economic day of reckoning is coming.
Beck
Whatever you do has to be commercial and it can't be too distracting - it has to be background music, basically.
Beck
I think it's interesting being American, the expectations for an American guy, and the image that has to be projected. 'Oh, I can't wear pink,' that kind of stuff. There's none of that in Europe.
