More quotes by Bruce Springsteen
I was looking for some way to put my music to some service on a nightly basis. You go into a town, you play a little music, you leave something behind. That idea connected us to the local community. It was a very simple idea, but it really resonated with me.
Bruce Springsteen
Work creates an enormous sense of self and I saw that in my mother. She was an enormous, towering figure to me in the best possible way. I picked up a lot of things from her in the way that I work... I also picked up a lot of the failings of when your father doesn't have those things and that results in a house that turns into a minefield.
Bruce Springsteen
Mental illness and creativity are - it's a thin line in between the two. I tend to believe that.
Bruce Springsteen
I was a guitar player on the streets of Asbury Park and already a member in good standing amongst those who lie in service of the truth - artists with a small A. But I held four clean aces. I had youth, almost a decade of hardcore bar band experience, a good group of homegrown musicians who were attuned to my performance style, and a story to tell.
Bruce Springsteen
Politics and life go hand in hand.
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
An unfulfilled life makes a hard man.
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
Our American government has strayed too far from American values. It is time to move forward. The country we carry in our hearts is waiting.
Bruce Springsteen
Walk tall, or baby don't walk at all.
Bruce Springsteen
A dream of life comes to me, like a catfish dancing on the end of the line.
Bruce Springsteen
I had a ten-piece band when I was 21 years old, the Bruce Springsteen Band. This is just a slightly expanded version of a band I had before I ever signed a record contract. We had singers and horns.
Bruce Springsteen
I believe the war on poverty is a more American idea than the war on the war on poverty. I believe that most people feel like that. And I believe that it ain't over till it's over.
Bruce Springsteen
So I bought a forty-four magnum, it was solid steel cast, and in the blessed name of Elvis, well I just let it blast 'til my TV lay in pieces.
Bruce Springsteen
When I was young, it was sort of built to intimidate. Even on this very local level in this very small church in this small town, it still held that sort of - held you in the palm of its darkness.
Bruce Springsteen
All I try to do is write music that feels meaningful to me, that has commitment and passion behind it.
Bruce Springsteen
The moment you begin to depend on audience reaction, you're doing the wrong thing. You're doin' it wrong, it's a mistake, it's not right. You can't allow yourself, no matter what, to depend on them.
Bruce Springsteen
The Jersey Shore is the kind of place where the policeman has a little cottage that might have been in the family for years and many other people call home.
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
I was in my late 20s, in the process of shaping my musical outlook and what I wanted it to be about, when I first encountered Woody Guthrie.
