Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true? Or is it something worse?
Bruce Springsteen
I want to spit in the face of these badlands.
Bruce Springsteen
They say ya gotta stay hungry... Hey Baby...I'm just about starvin' tonight!
Bruce Springsteen

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
Baby, in a world without pity Do you think what I'm askin's too much I just want to feel you in my arms Share a little of that Human Touch.
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
I think you can't demonize somebody that's on the other side of the political spectrum, or you can't generalize about them.
Bruce Springsteen
It's not the time in your life, it's the life in your time.
