More quotes by Bruce Springsteen
Yeah, I had gay friends. The first thing I realized was that everybody's different, and it becomes obvious that all of the gay stereotypes are ridiculous.
Bruce Springsteen
The release date is just one day, but the record is forever.
Bruce Springsteen
When you get fat and lose your hunger. That is when you know the sellout has happened.
Bruce Springsteen
Well now I'm no hero, that's understood. All the redemption I can offer girl, is beneath this dirty hood. With a chance to make it good somehow, hey what else can we do now? Except roll down the window, and let the wind blow back your hair. Well the night's busting open, these two lanes will take us anywhere. We got one last chance to make it real.
Bruce Springsteen
For me, President Obama is our best choice because he has a vision of the United States as a place where we are all in this together.
Bruce Springsteen
You may not be able to hit all the notes. That's OK. You may not have the clearest tone. You may not have the greatest range. But if you can inhabit your song, you can communicate.
Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen
I think you can't demonize somebody that's on the other side of the political spectrum, or you can't generalize about them.
Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen
cause down the shore everything's all right
Bruce Springsteen
I know your mama she don't like me, cause I play in a rock and roll band.
Bruce Springsteen
Politics and life go hand in hand.
Bruce Springsteen
You can revisit - the wonderful thing about my job is you can revisit your 22-year-old self or your 24-year-old self any particular night you want. The songs pick up some extra resonance, I hope, but they're still - they're there, and I can revisit that period of my life when I choose. So it's quite a nice experience.
Bruce Springsteen
Somebody who can reckon with the past, who can live with the past in the present, and move towards the future - that's fabulous.
Bruce Springsteen
The first day I can remember looking into a mirror and being able to stand what I saw was the day I had a guitar in my hand.
Bruce Springsteen
I held four clean aces. I had youth, almost a decade of hard-core bar band experience, a good group of homegrown musicians who were attuned to my performance style and a story to tell.
Bruce Springsteen
You ask for your audience's investment in your music you're in a relationship with them. And their relationship with the E Street Band is separate from whatever else I might do. I like the idea of us being something that people rely on.
Bruce Springsteen
Walk tall, or baby don't walk at all.
Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen
We're gonna play some pool, skip some school, act real cool, stay out all night, it's gonna be alright.
Bruce Springsteen
