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
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
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true? Or is it something worse?
Bruce Springsteen
I found the key to the universe in the engine of an old parked car.
Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen
The criminal ineptitude makes you furious.
Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen
Your legs were heaven, your breasts were the alter, your body was the holy land.
Bruce Springsteen
