There's no love like a lost love and no pain like a broken heart.
Ben Harper
Image
Music is the last true voice of the human spirit. It can go beyond language, beyond age, and beyond color straight to the mind and heart of all people.
Ben Harper
Image
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

You're definitely a different person at different stages in your life.
Ben Harper
Image
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
Image
The spirit is what guides my life, and I'm humbly on my knees in thanks for guidance and direction every day. But God is not something to be preached, it's something to be lived.
Ben Harper

I love being on the road, I love playing.
Ben Harper

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.

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.
Ben Harper
Image
Fearlessness, absolutely. Discipline. You also need open-minded creativeness that lets everything in. You never want to lose a word or a phrase, yet every one should count. Always the best language possible. And, finally, knowing when to leave it alone. Stop when it's done.
Ben Harper
Image
I'm really looking forward to, not more of the same, but a continual growth.
Ben Harper
Image
If I fall, I fall. I'll rise up like anybody else.
Ben Harper
Image
I get diminishing returns when I bore myself in an interview.
Ben Harper
Image
Life's the longest picture you're ever gonna take.
Ben Harper
Image
You can't just say 'I love you,' you have to live 'I love you.'
Ben Harper
Image
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
Image
Don't let what you have to heal from blind you to how much there is to heal for.
Ben Harper
Image
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
Image
I'm not going to do the Ben Harper house record or the Ben Harper drum 'n' bass record.

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.
