More quotes by Bruce Springsteen
I told a story with the E Street Band that was bigger and better than I could have done on my own.
Bruce Springsteen
Your success story is a bigger story than whatever you're trying to say on stage. Success makes life easier. It doesn't make living easier.
Bruce Springsteen
You still had to find the music inside your language. You know, it was - that's a big part of what sort of moved me to begin writing the book. I wrote a little essay and I felt, yeah, this is a good voice. This is a good feeling. It feels like me.
Bruce Springsteen
The wonderful thing about rock music is even if you hate the other person, sometimes you need him more, you know. In other words if he's the guy that made that sound, he's the guy that made that sound, and without that guy making that sound, you don't have a band, you know.
Bruce Springsteen
Your legs were heaven, your breasts were the alter, your body was the holy land.
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
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.
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
Blame it on the lies that killed us. Blame it on the truth that ran us down.
Bruce Springsteen
Someday girl, I don't know when, were gonna get to the place where we really want to go, and we'll walk in the sun. But til then, tramps like us, baby, we were born to run.
Bruce Springsteen
If you're an artist, you try to keep an ear to the ground and an ear to your heart.
Bruce Springsteen
The only thing I know as I get older is that I don't really need to be No. 1.
Bruce Springsteen
Just sitting around waiting for my life to begin, while it was all just slipping away.
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
All you can do is show people...You tell stories that are true and compelling.
Bruce Springsteen
Did God make man in a breath of holy fire, or did he crawl on up out of the muck and mire?
Bruce Springsteen
I'm interested in what it means to be an American. I'm interested in what it means to live in America. I'm interested in the kind of country that we live in and leave our kids. I'm interested in trying to define what that country is.
Bruce Springsteen
Most of these - most people's stage personas are created out of the flotsam and jetsam of their internal geography.
Bruce Springsteen
You can go from doing something quite silly to something dead serious in the blink of an eye, and if you're making those connections with your audience then they're going to go right along with it.
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
