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.

More quotes by Bruce Springsteen
At night I wake up with my sheets soaking wet and a freight train running through the middle of my head.
Bruce Springsteen
I go to put my arm around you and you give me a look like I'm way out of bounds.
Bruce Springsteen
A time comes when you need to stop waiting for the man you want to become and start being the man you want to be.
Bruce Springsteen
You can revisit - the wonderful thing about my job is you can revisit your 22-year-old self or your 24-year-old self any particular night you want. The songs pick up some extra resonance, I hope, but they're still - they're there, and I can revisit that period of my life when I choose. So it's quite a nice experience.
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
It's time to impeach the president and get a man in there to get us out of this mess.
Bruce Springsteen
Somebody who can reckon with the past, who can live with the past in the present, and move towards the future - that's fabulous.
Bruce Springsteen
I guess there's just a meanness in this world
Bruce Springsteen
The one thing I wished for my children is that they'd be readers.
Bruce Springsteen
I looked at myself, and I just said, well, you know, I can sing but I'm not the greatest singer in the world. I can play guitar very well, but I'm not the greatest guitar player in the world... And so I said, well, if I'm going to project an individuality, it's going to have to be in my writing.
Bruce Springsteen
Time slips away and leaves you with nothing, mister, but boring stories of glory days.
Bruce Springsteen
All you can do is show people...You tell stories that are true and compelling.
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
Walk tall, or baby don't walk at all.
Bruce Springsteen
All people have is hope. That's what brings the next day and whatever that day may bring... A hope grounded in the real world of living, friendship, work, family...
Bruce Springsteen
The different social forces that affected my parents' lives or my friends' lives or I saw around me became essential for me to write about.
Bruce Springsteen
Your legs were heaven, your breasts were the alter, your body was the holy land.
Bruce Springsteen
Got a wife and kid in Baltimore Jack, I went out for a ride and I never went back. Like a river that don't know where it's flowing, I took a wrong turn and I just kept going.
Bruce Springsteen
Show a little faith there is magic in the night. You ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright, and that's alright with me.
Bruce Springsteen
Every good writer or filmmaker has something eating at them, right? That they can't quite get off their back . And so your job is to make your audience care about your obsessions.
Bruce Springsteen
