We have to be active about kindness and about peace. I've always fantasized that it would be great if there was a Department of Peace.
Dave Matthews

Because life is short but sweet for certain We're climbing two by two To be sure these days continue These things we cannot change
Dave Matthews
Image
I'm only this far, and only tomorrow leads my way.

I'm a very vicious critic of myself.
Dave Matthews
Image
I don't feel like I'm standing in a position where I have some right above other people to say what I think. We should all be talking to each other about what we think is important - whether we're in politics, or whether we're checking out at a grocery store. We shouldn't put walls up between each other.

Just knowing that the world is round Here I'm dancing on the ground Am I right side up or upside down? Is this real or am I dreaming?
Dave Matthews

I swear by now I'm playing time against my troubles I'm coming slow but speeding

Oh look at how she listens She says nothing of what she thinks She just goes stumbling through her memories Staring out on to Grey Street

I don't think socialism, and I don't think warmness and respect are necessarily bad words.

Digging a ditch where madness gives a bit Digging a ditch where silence lives Digging a ditch for when I'm old Digging this ditch my story's told Where all these troubles weigh down on me will rise ..... Where all these questions spinning round my head will die

I don't touch electric guitars. It's just not my thing - I stick with acoustic guitars only.

Image
I've never been much of a craftsman, in an educated way. But I think just the experience of writing makes the avenues I follow a little more efficient in some ways. At the same time, when you're young, you're a little more fearless, and there's less of an internal critic.

For a moment this good time would never end You and me Just wasting time I was kissing you You were kissing me love From good day into a moonlight
Dave Matthews
Image
I think I am a very kind person. I think I'm joyful, but I could be kinder and I could be more joyful. I do believe peace is a state of grace, and not the absence of violence.

When I don't say a word and you know exactly what I mean.
Dave Matthews
Image
Would you like to play With the thought of a friend In a distant passing stage While you lie around With your hands up and out So resigned you will fall down.
Dave Matthews
Image
I like to think I'm a night person, because that's my job, but now I'm a father of three. I'm trying to become more of a morning person. I don't know if it will last. I have two choices, right? Either I'm bitter about getting up early, or I start drinking wine earlier and get to bed.

The problem is someone will try to convince you That they know the answer no matter the question Be wary of those who believe in a neat little world 'Cause it's just ..... crazy - you know that it is

I'm from a very politically and socially conscious family. My mother always made a point of making us look at what was going on around us and take stock of our part in it.

If at all God's gaze falls upon us all it's with a mischievous grin, look at him.
