I like fish and a lot of seaweed, but I don't eat bread or dairy or anything like that. It's kind of like in the macrobiotic world. I'm just a healthy eater who loves to juice.

More quotes by Brett Dennen
I think food is the great equalizer. Other than the ocean and the air, food is the thing that we all share in common. I think along with that comes the question of why are some people starving, and why do some people produce more food than they need, and why is food going to waste.

When you're young that's when you feel like you can change the world. Then you get older and you buy a house and have kids, and you don't want to be so bold anymore.
Brett Dennen
What I strive to do with songwriting is be really honest, authentic and try to be open and share that with people. I choose that over trying to be clever, poetic, or lyrical.
Brett Dennen
I always liked playing music and I always wanted to be good at playing guitar. I always saw myself as an old man living in the mountains playing a guitar, but I didn't really turn that into a desire to be a professional musician or a singer or a rock star or anything like that.
Brett Dennen
I guess it's just my job to somehow balance knowing that every song is going to come differently and be different, but also know that, on the other hand, I am a songwriter and I am a craftsman, and I do have a craft and a technique and a method. So I need to balance the technique and the method.

I want to live the way I choose. It's all about happiness. I'm a happy person. But to find true happiness, peace within yourself and the world, that is something achieved in the moment. No matter the circumstance.
Brett Dennen
I think everybody, no matter what they eat, they should eat at least fifty percent raw food. But I eat some seafood.
Brett Dennen
I think for me to do a traditional sitting meditation I would really have to spend a couple weeks working at it. The only way I know how to efficiently, effectively meditate is by walking in nature.
Brett Dennen
It's cool to be healthy now! It's cool to, like, drink fresh juices and drink Kombucha and all that stuff.
Brett Dennen
Follow your heart and you won't get lost.

I think most artists would agree, it's one thing to be playing in front of a crowd that's loving it, it's another thing to add cameras, but it's a really cool trade off to be on television.
Brett Dennen
I want to write songs with meaning. I have high standards for my work.
Brett Dennen
I have ideas for songs all the time, but musical ideas, like melodies, really come out when I'm in nature.
Brett Dennen
I think there's a certain magic that comes from being creative.
Brett Dennen
I can write songs, but I'm not gonna really feel good about the song unless it feels like me, and I'm not gonna release a song or put it on an album or play it in concert unless it really feels like me.
Brett Dennen
It's usually kids that normally don't have a chance to get to meet each other because they're separated by millions of different things.
Brett Dennen
Songs don't really feel like me unless I somehow shed a little secret or open myself somehow or be vulnerable. When I'm singing these songs, it feels like me, and that comes with the vulnerabilities and the strengths and the moments of triumph or whatever.
Brett Dennen
Bringing up issues that are hard to deal with is a challenge for me, and I think that's what draws me to song writing.
Brett Dennen
I can't really write unless I'm full of inspiration. And even then I can't write unless I have some alone time.
Brett Dennen
Pain is a part of life. It's certainly part of my creative process.
