More quotes by 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
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
Politics and life go hand in hand.
Bruce Springsteen
Poor man wanna be rich, rich man wanna be king, and a king ain't satisfied until he rules everything.
Bruce Springsteen
For one kiss, darling, I swear everything I would give. Cause you're a walking, talking reason to live.
Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen
Those wounds stay with you, and you turn them into a language and a purpose.
Bruce Springsteen
I think initially, our audiences were filled with young men. You know, our initial audience was a lot of young guys who I think were trying to - who you played a bit of a big brother role for and were trying to sort out a lot of the same things right - soon as Born To Run hit, you know? So it was something that I worked pretty hard on.
Bruce Springsteen
Just sitting back trying to recapture a little of the glory of... Well, the time slips away and leaves you with nothing, mister, but boring stories of Glory days - yeah, they'll pass you by, Glory days - in the wink of a young girl's eye.
Bruce Springsteen
The release date is just one day, but the record is forever.
Bruce Springsteen
I'm not in any rush. I'm not somebody who, if I write a song, I get it out. That's not something I've ever really quite done.
Bruce Springsteen
I've found that giving 100% to your job isn't the same as giving 100% of your life to your job. Very often when I thought I was giving 100% of my life to my job, I was simply obsessing over something.
Bruce Springsteen
I want to spit in the face of these badlands.
