Plus, you know, when I was young, there was a lot of respect for clowning in rock music - look at Little Richard. It was a part of the whole thing, and I always also believed that it released the audience.

More quotes by Bruce Springsteen
I know your mama she don't like me, cause I play in a rock and roll band.
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
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
Roll down the window and let the wind blow back your hair. The night's busted open. These two lanes will take us anywhere.
Bruce Springsteen
Hey man, did you see that? His body hit the street with such a beautiful thud.
Bruce Springsteen
Last night me and Kate we laid in bed talking about getting out, Packing up our bags, maybe heading south. I'm thirty-five, we got a boy of our own now. Last night I sat him up behind the wheel and said, Son, take a good look around, This is your hometown.
Bruce Springsteen
We said we'd walk together baby come what may.That come the twilight should we lose our way.If as we're walkin a hand should slip free,I'll wait for you And should I fall behind,Wait for me.
Bruce Springsteen
Well I got this guitar and I learned how to make it talk.
Bruce Springsteen
Your legs were heaven, your breasts were the alter, your body was the holy land.
Bruce Springsteen
But the star thing I can live with. The music I can't live without. And that's how it lays out for me, you know. I got as big an ego and enjoy the attention.
Bruce Springsteen
Blood moon risin' in a sky of black dust, tell me baby, who do you trust?
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 think when you're a child, you just cling to the basics, which is the basic story of Jesus and the crucifixion and hell and eternal punishment and the flames. This was all stuff that was - forget when you're young.
Bruce Springsteen
Those wounds stay with you, and you turn them into a language and a purpose.
Bruce Springsteen
I don't like to write rhetorically or get on a soapbox. I try to make the stuff multi-layered, so that it always has a life outside its social context. I don't believe that you can tell people anything you can only draw them in.
Bruce Springsteen
I walked a thousand miles just to slip this skin.
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
You're born into this life paying for the sins of somebody else's past.
Bruce Springsteen
I had tried to go to college, and I didn't really fit in. I went to a real narrow-minded school where people gave me a lot of trouble, and I was hounded off the campus - I just looked different and acted different, so I left school.
Bruce Springsteen
The songs themselves do broaden out as time passes and take on subtly different meanings, take on more meaning, I find.
