More quotes by Bruce Springsteen
Just sitting around waiting for my life to begin, while it was all just slipping away.
Bruce Springsteen
It's a town full of losers And I'm pulling out of here to win.
Bruce Springsteen
The first time I heard Bob Dylan, I was in the car with my mother listening to WMCA, and on came that snare shot that sounded like somebody'd kicked open the door to your mind.
Bruce Springsteen
When you`re onstage you have a certain faith that somebody's gonna yell somethin' back. Some nights it's louder than other nights and some nights they do, and on some songs they don't. But that's the idea. I think when you begin to expect a reaction from an audience, it's a mistake.
Bruce Springsteen
Talk about a dream, try to make it real.
Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen
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.
Bruce Springsteen
You can't be afraid of getting old. Old is good, if you're gathering in life. Our band is good at understanding that equation.
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
The man on the radio says Elvis Presley's died. We drove to Memphis, the sky was hard and black.
Bruce Springsteen
Unions have been the only powerful and effective voice working people have ever had in the history of this country.
Bruce Springsteen
In the third grade, a nun stuffed me in a garbage can under her desk because she said that's where I belonged. I also had the distinction of being the only altar boy knocked down by a priest during mass.
Bruce Springsteen
Here everybody has a neighbor Everybody has a friend Everybody has a reason to begin again.
Bruce Springsteen
You can't kill your way to security and you can't lead by scaring people.
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
Getting an audience is hard. Sustaining an audience is hard. It demands a consistency of thought, of purpose, and of action over a long period of time.
Bruce Springsteen
Roy Orbison is singing for the lonely, hey, that's me and I want you only.
Bruce Springsteen
