I really feel like the sky is the limit with the Innocent Criminals today.

I get diminishing returns when I bore myself in an interview.

Image
I'm more afraid of falling than I am of flying high. I'm not as scared of dying as I am of growing old. Every battle has its glory and its consequence.

When it comes to partnership, some humans can make their lives alone - it's possible. But creatively, it's more like painting: you can't just use the same colours in every painting. It's just not an option. You can't take the same photograph every time and live with art forms with no differences.

They say time will make all this go away. But it's time that has taken my tomorrows and turned them into yesterdays.

It will make a weak man mighty. it will make a mighty man fall. It will fill your heart and hands or leave you with nothing at all. It's the eyes for the blind and legs for the lame. It is the love for hate and pride for shame. That's the power of the gospel.

We've changed our reflections, but inside we're just a child.
Ben Harper
Image
A candle throws its light into the darkness, in a nasty world so shines a good deed. Make sure the fortune that you seek is the fortune that you need.
Ben Harper
Image
I can't not put myself in the shoes of every person I pass.
Ben Harper
Image
I'm really looking forward to, not more of the same, but a continual growth.
Ben Harper
Image
What enables me to believe in anything is hope.
Ben Harper
Image
I want to try to not be the child that had to go through too much too young. I want to be who I am now and not who I was then.
Ben Harper
Image
The music is in the lead here, and a large part of this, I have no idea what I'm doing. I feel a closer bond with the craft of songwriting, stronger than I ever have.
Ben Harper
Image
I really feel there's no limitation on what this band can do in the studio or on the stage. That's an empowering feeling - that we can bring a song to life.
Ben Harper

My band is the best band in the world, period. So, I insist on every song being better than it is on the record. So by the end of the tour, we have to be playing the song better than how it's recorded.

There's so much there, there's so much to heal for.
