More quotes by Ben Harper
You're living life in real time, man, and we' ve got a good amount of work to do for each other. Hiding is not an option and you're going to step out and you're going to make mistakes.
Ben Harper
If you're gonna live, then live it up.
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 really looking forward to, not more of the same, but a continual growth.
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
When you have everything, you have everything to lose.
Ben Harper
You can't just say 'I love you,' you have to live 'I love you.'
Ben Harper
You have to do what you believe in.
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
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
I'm a living sunset, lightning in my bones.
Ben Harper
My choice is what I choose to do and if I'm causing no harm it shouldn't bother you. Your choice is who you choose to be and if you're causin' no harm, then your alright with me.
Ben Harper
There's only one proper way a song should go, but you've got to be patient enough to let them come together time wise. Sometimes it's lightning in a bottle and you got the song. But oftentimes it shows up.
Ben Harper
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
I refuse to age disgracefully in rock 'n' roll.
Ben Harper
Every moral has a story, every story has and end. Every battle has its glory, and its consequence.
Ben Harper
I love being on the road, I love playing.
Ben Harper
It turns out that there is something more magnificent than nature. It's love.
Ben Harper
Don't let what you have to heal from blind you to how much there is to heal for.
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.
