More quotes by Bob Weir

Bob Weir
The roughest part for me when I'm writing a song is staring at a blank page. Where am I going from here? If you're a songwriter, you have to do that every time you start a song.
Bob Weir
If you want to promote anything, all the work that you put into it is basically promoting the idea of it so that people will go for it. And if they don't go for it, you can't institute it. You can't do it.
Bob Weir
Our lives are interesting.
Bob Weir
Grace isn't enough. You've got to intend to be there when it's happening.
Bob Weir
Certain kinds of people just can't live life taking risks with adventure.
Bob Weir
If for instance, in a board meeting, if you have an idea, it better be a good idea, or you're not going to get everybody's attention.
Bob Weir
