More quotes by Dave Matthews
Take these chances Place them in a box until a quieter time Lights down, you up and die
Dave Matthews
Don't burn the day away...
Dave Matthews
The world and the universe are far more wonderful if there's not a puppet master.
Dave Matthews
When I look at how fortunate I've been, being a musician... my response to being overpaid is that I should pay it back to my community in some way.
Dave Matthews
When I don't say a word and you know exactly what I mean.
Dave Matthews
I'm a fairly tormented artist, and I'm less willing to indulge myself in self-pity, outside of songwriting.
Dave Matthews
Troubles, they may come and go, but good times, they're the gold.
Dave Matthews
Because one of the properties of music is to entertain and to, I don't mean this lightly, distract us from the things that pull us down. Music should be not only a source for political ideas but also a source of hope.
Dave Matthews
Probably most of the time I watch children's movies because my kids are on the bus, so it requires them.
Dave Matthews
I use God in my songs a lot but I don't have a relationship. I don't know what that means.
Dave Matthews
So why would you care To get out of this place? You and me and all our friends, Such a happy human race. Eat, drink and be merry, For tomorrow we die.
Dave Matthews
I don't think socialism, and I don't think warmness and respect are necessarily bad words.
Dave Matthews
It's funny, I get a little quieter with time. I don't want to chase my tail and one day repeat myself and repeat myself and one day have kids going to college and not have memories that I should, because I was too busy doing my thing.
Dave Matthews
Always walk where you like your steps.
Dave Matthews
My songs are like a three-legged dog - you have to get to know them to have any love for them.
Dave Matthews
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.
Dave Matthews
I'm a very vicious critic of myself.
Dave Matthews
Move into kiss those sweet sugar lips, baby looks just like love.
Dave Matthews
The idea of God as a fatherly figure who looks down on us and worries about how we're doing or takes sides when we have fights - it's more irritating than Santa Claus. The world and the universe are far more wonderful if there's not a puppet master.
Dave Matthews
Everyday should be a good day to die
