Bruce Springsteen
Your legs were heaven, your breasts were the alter, your body was the holy land.
Bruce Springsteen
Madman drummers, bummers, Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat. In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat.

Bruce Springsteen
When I was very, very young, I decided that I was gonna catalogue my times because that's what other people who I admired did. That's what Bob Dylan did, that's what Frank Sinatra did, Hank Williams did, in very different ways.
Bruce Springsteen
If you see me performing, you're going, that guy is simply the most extroverted guy I've ever seen. But if you've seen me very often on a daily basis and all the while growing up, I was very, very introverted. Very introverted. So I have sort of the extremes of both of those characteristics.
Bruce Springsteen
Wendy, let me in, I wanna be your friend. I wanna guard your dreams and visions.
Bruce Springsteen
I think initially, our audiences were filled with young men. You know, our initial audience was a lot of young guys who I think were trying to - who you played a bit of a big brother role for and were trying to sort out a lot of the same things right - soon as Born To Run hit, you know? So it was something that I worked pretty hard on.
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
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
When you get fat and lose your hunger. That is when you know the sellout has happened.
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
I don't want to make a record like in the '50s or the '60s or the '70s. I want to make a record like today, that`s right now.
