More quotes by Ben Harper
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
With so many people to love in my life, why do I worry about one?
Ben Harper
They say time will make all this go away. But it's time that has taken my tomorrows and turned them into yesterdays.
Ben Harper
You can't just say 'I love you,' you have to live 'I love you.'
Ben Harper
Every time feels like my first time. And I just find that the process of it feeds into one's own self-obsession.
Ben Harper
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.
Ben Harper
My head works in music, so there's always music there.
Ben Harper
But I would never insult the people that love this music and I would never insult the blessing of music in my life and I would never insult myself by playing uninspired music.
Ben Harper
I'm a living sunset, lightning in my bones.
Ben Harper
If it comes out sounding like Dixieland jazz or classical or punk or rock or even slightly metal, that's because that's where I'm going to find inspiration.
Ben Harper
It was a huge deal, a huge musical discovery that became life lessons learned. You can't return from having an experience like that. The Blind Boys are truly the deepest well of American musical heritage you can discover.
Ben Harper
I'm not going to do the Ben Harper house record or the Ben Harper drum 'n' bass record.
Ben Harper
I really feel like the sky is the limit with the Innocent Criminals today.
Ben Harper
As a songwriter, I don't rush. I may sit on lyrics for two years before the music hits.
Ben Harper
You look like gold. I've been fooled before, but now I know I've made the mistake in the past. But now I, now I know the difference from gold and brass.
Ben Harper
I'm really looking forward to, not more of the same, but a continual growth.
Ben Harper
Make sure the fortune that you seek is the fortune that you need.
Ben Harper
I've never made a record that didn't sound better than what was in my head - that's sort of my rule.
Ben Harper
There's something in everyone only they know.
Ben Harper
Every single time I step into the studio, I say, 'Can I still do this? Do I still have it? Have I ever had it?' I suppose there's a good amount of self-loathing that goes into any form of artisanship.
