More quotes by 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.

I had no credit cards. I had no checks. I was cash only until I was probably 30 years old.
Bruce Springsteen
But the star thing I can live with. The music I can't live without. And that's how it lays out for me, you know. I got as big an ego and enjoy the attention.
Bruce Springsteen
Got a wife and kid in Baltimore Jack, I went out for a ride and I never went back. Like a river that don't know where it's flowing, I took a wrong turn and I just kept going.
Bruce Springsteen
You can hide beneath the covers and study your pain, make crosses from your lovers, throw roses in the rain. Waste your summer praying in vain, for a savior to rise from these streets.
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
I would rather feel the hurt inside, yes I would darling, than know the emptiness that your heart must hide.
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
I don't want to make a record like in the '50s or the '60s or the '70s. I want to make a record like today, that`s right now.
Bruce Springsteen
Have you ever seen a one trick pony in the field so happy and free? If you've ever seen a one trick pony then you've seen me Have you ever seen a one-legged dog making his way down the street? If you've ever seen a one-legged dog then you've seen me.
Bruce Springsteen
I think life goes through a cycle of losing and refinding yourself all the time. Everyone has disappointments all the time, some of them pretty small, some of them pretty big.
Bruce Springsteen
I hadn't performed by myself in a while. It feels very natural to me, and I assume people come for the very same reasons as they do when I'm with the band: to be moved, for something to happen to them.
Bruce Springsteen
They say ya gotta stay hungry... Hey Baby...I'm just about starvin' tonight!
Bruce Springsteen
We said we'd walk together baby come what may.That come the twilight should we lose our way.If as we're walkin a hand should slip free,I'll wait for you And should I fall behind,Wait for me.
Bruce Springsteen
I have spent my life judging the distance between American reality and the American dream.
Bruce Springsteen
Wendy, let me in, I wanna be your friend. I wanna guard your dreams and visions.
Bruce Springsteen
Blame it on the lies that killed us. Blame it on the truth that ran us down.
Bruce Springsteen
Because we lived in the presence of the church and the convent and the rectory and the school 24-7. And this was an enormous cornerstone in the lives of my entire family. They were all pretty serious Catholic churchgoers.
Bruce Springsteen
The name 'Boss' started with people that worked for me... It was not meant like Boss, capital B, it was meant like 'Boss, where's my dough this week?' And it was sort of just a term among friends. I never really liked it.
Bruce Springsteen
For the ones who had a notion, A notion deep inside, That it ain't no sin to be glad you're alive I wanna find one face that ain't looking through me I wanna find one place, I wanna spit in the face of these badlands
Bruce Springsteen
