More quotes by Bruce Springsteen
You know hearts these days are cheap.
Bruce Springsteen
I hadn't performed by myself in a while. It feels very natural to me, and I assume people come for the very same reasons as they do when I'm with the band: to be moved, for something to happen to them.
Bruce Springsteen
Pessimism and optimism are slammed up against each other in my records, the tension between them is where it's all at, it's what lights the fire.
Bruce Springsteen
I always write with an audience in mind. If I feel that [connection] coming back at me then I feel like I'm doing my job. That's why people come to my music - for some emotional experience or a perspective, either on their own lives, or on the world that they're living in.
Bruce Springsteen
More than rich, more than famous, more than happy...I wanted to be great.
Bruce Springsteen
For me, once I count the band in, and I delve deep into my song, I feel a certain sort of integrity and integration that I rarely find in my daily life.
Bruce Springsteen
The wise men were all fools, what to do?
Bruce Springsteen
If you're an artist, you try to keep an ear to the ground and an ear to your heart.
Bruce Springsteen
Just sitting around waiting for my life to begin, while it was all just slipping away.
Bruce Springsteen
Those wounds stay with you, and you turn them into a language and a purpose.
Bruce Springsteen
I have spent my life judging the distance between American reality and the American dream.
Bruce Springsteen
I can sing very comfortably from my vantage point because a lot of the music was about a loss of innocence, there's innocence contained in you but there's also innocence in the process of being lost.
Bruce Springsteen
There is a real patriotism underneath the best of my music but it is a critical, questioning and often angry patriotism.
Bruce Springsteen
Nobody wins unless everybody wins.
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
The drummer in my first band was killed in Vietnam. He kind of signed up and joined the marines. Bart Hanes was his name. He was one of those guys that was jokin' all the time, always playin' the clown.
Bruce Springsteen
Dancing in the dark. Does fortune wait or just the black hand of fate, It'll take your God filled soul. Fill it with devils.
Bruce Springsteen
In America everything's about who's number one today.
Bruce Springsteen
The hungry and the haunted explode in a rock'n'roll band.
Bruce Springsteen
Most of these - most people's stage personas are created out of the flotsam and jetsam of their internal geography.
Bruce Springsteen
