More quotes by Bruce Springsteen
The songs themselves do broaden out as time passes and take on subtly different meanings, take on more meaning, I find.
Bruce Springsteen
I want to spit in the face of these badlands.
Bruce Springsteen
A dream of life comes to me, like a catfish dancing on the end of the line.
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
Walk tall, or baby don't walk at all.
Bruce Springsteen
Your success story is a bigger story than whatever you're trying to say on stage. Success makes life easier. It doesn't make living easier.
Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen
All I try to do is write music that feels meaningful to me, that has commitment and passion behind it.
Bruce Springsteen
When I first started in rock, I had a big guy's audience for my early records. I had a very straight image, particularly through the mid '80s.
Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen
Because we lived in the presence of the church and the convent and the rectory and the school 24-7. And this was an enormous cornerstone in the lives of my entire family. They were all pretty serious Catholic churchgoers.
Bruce Springsteen
The past is never the past. It is always present. And you better reckon with it in your life and in your daily experience, or it will get you. It will get you really bad.
Bruce Springsteen
You get used to anything, sooner or later it just becomes your life.
Bruce Springsteen
She kissed me just right, like only a lonely angel can.
Bruce Springsteen
And whether you're drawn to gospel music or church music or honky-tonk music, it informs your character and it informs your talent.
Bruce Springsteen
Hey man, did you see that? His body hit the street with such a beautiful thud.
Bruce Springsteen
You can't start a fire without a spark
Bruce Springsteen
I've found that giving 100% to your job isn't the same as giving 100% of your life to your job. Very often when I thought I was giving 100% of my life to my job, I was simply obsessing over something.
Bruce Springsteen
I think life goes through a cycle of losing and refinding yourself all the time. Everyone has disappointments all the time, some of them pretty small, some of them pretty big.
Bruce Springsteen
The life of a rock & roll band will last as long as you can look down into the audience and see yourself.
Bruce Springsteen
