More quotes by Dar Williams
Guiding the ship takes more the your skill. It is the compass inside as the strength of your will.
Dar Williams
There's tons of anger and angst and peculiarity and eccentricity, and good towns know that that's okay. But towns that are kind of bullshit don't know what to do with all those feelings.
Dar Williams
Sometimes life gives us lessons sent in ridiculous packaging.
Dar Williams
And you bring your words, But you're just like them, You're unprepared 'Cause you don't know the terrain
Dar Williams
For my 50th birthday I just want to make it all make sense [being exactly half introvert], and then a couple of weeks later do the blow-out with all my friends.
Dar Williams
The only I would say is a little different is when I know my parents are in the audience. That's never going to be the same as another concert.

It's just that you don't have to bring it to every stage. You can do a fundraiser for people that you support. You don't necessarily have to talk about one thing or another when you're on your own.

The rest of the songs on the album [Mortal City ] have spare arrangements on them. Steve [Miller], really loved that. He'd just come off of a project with someone who basically had to mask the fact that there were no songs there with production. He said, Oh, my God, you have real songs here!

I went from having three little jobs that I strung together to being on the road full-time having some savings that my managers told me to spend. You fly all over the country opening for these other people. You pay a publicist to get some press while you're establishing yourself and you will be solvent in this career forevermore.
Dar Williams
It's a collective truth that slavery is wrong, that child labor is wrong, that gross inequality is wrong. God didn't send it.
Dar Williams
I think we're coming to a place where we're saying all war is wrong. We might even learn something about the sensationalism we get caught up in with people like Donald Trump.
Dar Williams
I would encourage people to bridge broadly and creatively in their communities, not just because that creates the most fun and resiliency, but also because it creates the most points of access for people to be part of the community, which is what democracy is at its best.
Dar Williams
Go ahead, push your luck, find out how much love the world can hold.
Dar Williams
Slavery doesn't have any positives.
Dar Williams
And if I had a camera Showing all the light we give And showing where the light extends I'd give it to my friends
Dar Williams
The funny thing is musicians often love to go to see visual art because you've got all these pictures to turn into metaphors.
Dar Williams
I'm amazed at the adolescent nature of some of the religious fanatics in our government. And they're full of double standards.
Dar Williams
I would push for more production and Steve Miller would say, Why do you want to have more production when you have real songs? You don't want to cover up the song.
Dar Williams
I fear that to fall in love with you is to fall from a great and gruesome height.
Dar Williams
If you're lucky you find something that reflects you, Helps you feel your life, protects you, Cradles you and connects you to everything.
