You may not be able to hit all the notes. That's OK. You may not have the clearest tone. You may not have the greatest range. But if you can inhabit your song, you can communicate.

More quotes by Bruce Springsteen
Blame it on the lies that killed us. Blame it on the truth that ran us down.
Bruce Springsteen
Somebody who can reckon with the past, who can live with the past in the present, and move towards the future - that's fabulous.
Bruce Springsteen
The songs themselves do broaden out as time passes and take on subtly different meanings, take on more meaning, I find.
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
But it's a sad man my friend who's livin' in his own skin And can't stand the company. Every fool's got a reason to feelin' sorry for himself And turn his heart to stone. Tonight this fool's halfway to heaven and just a mile outta hell And I feel like I'm comin' home.
Bruce Springsteen
When I first started in rock, I had a big guy's audience for my early records. I had a very straight image, particularly through the mid '80s.
Bruce Springsteen
I'm interested in what it means to be an American. I'm interested in what it means to live in America. I'm interested in the kind of country that we live in and leave our kids. I'm interested in trying to define what that country is.
Bruce Springsteen
If you're an artist, you try to keep an ear to the ground and an ear to your heart.
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
The drummer in my first band was killed in Vietnam. He kind of signed up and joined the marines. Bart Hanes was his name. He was one of those guys that was jokin' all the time, always playin' the clown.
Bruce Springsteen
A dream of life comes to me, like a catfish dancing on the end of the line.
Bruce Springsteen
I was always concerned with writing to my age at a particular moment. That was the way I would keep faith with the audience that supported me as I went along.
Bruce Springsteen
I guess there's just a meanness in this world
Bruce Springsteen
I think you can't demonize somebody that's on the other side of the political spectrum, or you can't generalize about them.
Bruce Springsteen
Walk tall, or baby don't walk at all.
Bruce Springsteen
I took a month long vacation in the stratosphere, and you know it's very hard to hold your breath.
Bruce Springsteen
Two hearts are better than one.
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
You ain't a beauty but, hey, you're all right.
Bruce Springsteen
The street's alive as secret debts are paid, Contacts made, they vanished unseen. Kids flash guitars just like switch-blades Hustling for the record machine. The hungry and the hunted explode into rock'n'roll bands That face off against each other out in the street, down in Jungleland.
