More quotes by Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen
The hungry and the haunted explode in a rock'n'roll band.
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
There have been a lotta tough guys. There have been pretenders. And there have been contenders. But there is only one king.
Bruce Springsteen
Let's raise our glass and let the hammer fly, yeah, this is the long good-bye.
Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen
Have you ever seen a one trick pony in the field so happy and free? If you've ever seen a one trick pony then you've seen me Have you ever seen a one-legged dog making his way down the street? If you've ever seen a one-legged dog then you've seen me.
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
