More quotes by Dave Matthews
I'm a fairly tormented artist, and I'm less willing to indulge myself in self-pity, outside of songwriting.
Dave Matthews
She runs up into the light surprised Her arms are opened Her mind's eye is Seeing things from a better side than most can dream
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
My songs are like a three-legged dog - you have to get to know them to have any love for them.
Dave Matthews
The reason I play music is to touch people - for selfish reasons, as well. It feels good to make someone else feel something, whether it's a kiss, a painting, good idea or it's a song.
Dave Matthews
The melodies are always the most important part to me. I am pulled more to the groove than the chord progression. After you find the groove, you find the most simple chord progressions and then sit inside that groove.
Dave Matthews
Tomorrow is no place to place your better days.
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 always like to have an atlas just so that I can find things out. It's always good to have an almanac those sort of things.
Dave Matthews
The world and the universe are far more wonderful if there's not a puppet master.
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
I think some people would say that I do overwhelm the words with the music, and sometimes thank goodness I do.
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 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.
Dave Matthews
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.
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
Sometimes it's nice to be able to reflect on the music itself and then write lyrics that I feel anyone can relate to. It's not my dreaming tree that is dead. The feeling of a loss of hope is universal. There are moments that we've all felt a little bit of it, so I don't think it is something that is too hard to identify with.
Dave Matthews
Move into kiss those sweet sugar lips, baby looks just like love.
Dave Matthews
I don't touch electric guitars. It's just not my thing - I stick with acoustic guitars only.
Dave Matthews
I hope that just what I sing about and how I relate to my audience is as much of a political statement as I need to make.
