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.

More quotes by Bruce Springsteen
You can beat on your chest, hell, any monkey can.
Bruce Springsteen
Remember all the movies, Terry, we'd go see? Trying to learn how to walk like the heroes we thought we had to be And after all this time to find we're just like all the rest Stranded in the park and forced to confess To hiding on the Backstreets.
Bruce Springsteen
If you want truth to go round the world you must hire an express train to pull it but if you want a lie to go round the world, it will fly: it is as light as a feather, and a breath will carry it. It is well said in the old proverb, 'a lie will go round the world while truth is pulling its boots on'.
Bruce Springsteen
Time slips away and leaves you with nothing, mister, but boring stories of glory days.
Bruce Springsteen
Talk about a dream, try to make it real.
Bruce Springsteen
Wendy, let me in, I wanna be your friend. I wanna guard your dreams and visions.

The man on the radio says Elvis Presley's died. We drove to Memphis, the sky was hard and black.
Bruce Springsteen
I'm used to writing something, it becomes a record, it comes out. Then I go perform and I play it and I get this immediate feedback from the audience. So that's been the pattern of my life.
Bruce Springsteen
The release date is just one day, but the record is forever.
Bruce Springsteen
A dream of life comes to me, like a catfish dancing on the end of the line.
Bruce Springsteen
If they had told me I was the janitor and would have to mop up and clean the toilets after the show in order to play, I probably would have done it.
Bruce Springsteen
You weren't supposed to hear Elvis Presley. You weren't supposed to hear Jerry Lee Lewis. You weren't supposed to hear Robert Johnson. You weren't supposed to hear Hank Williams. And they told the story of the secret America.
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
Here everybody has a neighbor Everybody has a friend Everybody has a reason to begin again.
Bruce Springsteen
An unfulfilled life makes a hard man.
Bruce Springsteen
Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty. And meet me tonight in Atlantic City
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
I had no credit cards. I had no checks. I was cash only until I was probably 30 years old.
Bruce Springsteen
Mental illness and creativity are - it's a thin line in between the two. I tend to believe that.
Bruce Springsteen
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.
