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
A dream of life comes to me, like a catfish dancing on the end of the line.
Bruce Springsteen
An audience is not brought to you or given to you it's something that you fight for.

Somewhere along the way, the idea, which I think was initially to get some fair transaction between people, went out the window. And what came in was, the most you can get and the least you can give. That's why cars are the way they are nowadays. It's just an erosion of all the things that were true and right about the original idea.
Bruce Springsteen
You ain't a beauty but, hey, you're all right.

Bruce Springsteen
Roll down the window and let the wind blow back your hair. The night's busted open. These two lanes will take us anywhere.
Bruce Springsteen
It took quite a bit of work and time and mistakes to begin to feel - to understand the strength that comes along with building a home life.That was very mysterious to me. I was very skeptical of it for a long time, and didn't understand it fully until Patti [ Scialfa] and I got together.
Bruce Springsteen
You ride in a limousine the first time, it's a big thrill but after that it's just a stupid car.
Bruce Springsteen
You can't start a fire Worrying 'bout your little world falling apart This gun's for hire Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Bruce Springsteen
The audiences are there as a result of my history with the band but also as a result of my being able to reach people with a tune.
Bruce Springsteen
Born down in a dead man's town, The first kick I took was when I hit the ground, You end up like a dog that's been beat too much, Till you spend half your life just covering up...
Bruce Springsteen
If I have a song that I feel is really one of my best songs, I like it to have a formal studio recording because I believe that something being officially released on a studio record gives it a certain authority that it doesn't quite have if it comes out on a live album or is just a part of your show, you know.
Bruce Springsteen
I think that, when you're writing your songs, there's always a debate about whether, is that you in the song? Is it not you in the song?
Bruce Springsteen
Basically, I was pretty ostracized in my hometown. Me and a few other guys were the town freaks- and there were many occasions when we were dodging getting beaten up ourselves.
Bruce Springsteen
