More quotes by Dave Matthews
Are you looking for answers, to questions under the stars? If along the way you are growing weary, You can rest with me until a brighter day It's okay
Dave Matthews
I do still get shocked every once in a while when I catch my reflection when I'm walking past a glass building, but it's in my mind about getting older and finding out what I'm going to look like as it unfolds - or as it folds, depending on where the marks and scars land.
Dave Matthews
Some might tell you there's no hope in hand Just because they feel hopeless But you don't have to be a thing like that You be a ship in a bottle set sail
Dave Matthews
In so many areas of life, I'm a spaz and incompetent.
Dave Matthews
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
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
What I want is what I've not got, but what I need is all around me.
Dave Matthews
I'm not going to change my ways just to please you, or appease you.
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
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
We spend a lot of time bickering at great cost, and very little time actually coming up with solutions. And I think we misuse our ambition for our own gains and rarely for the betterment of ourselves, and people around us and our environment. And I think that's sort of pathetic and desperate.
Dave Matthews
Tomorrow is no place to place your better days.
Dave Matthews
Being able to scream at the top of my lungs in front of people is very therapeutic. It is a great gift for me to be able to do that.
Dave Matthews
South Africa gives me a perspective of what's real and what's not real. So I go back to South Africa to both lose myself and gain awareness of myself. Every time I go back, it doesn't take long for me to get caught into a very different thing. A very different sense of myself.
Dave Matthews
I don't think socialism, and I don't think warmness and respect are necessarily bad words.
Dave Matthews
I can't believe that we would lie in our graves wondering if we had spent our living days well. I can't believe that we would lie in our graves dreaming of things that we might have been.
Dave Matthews
I was just wondering if you'd come along to hold up my head when my head won't hold on.
Dave Matthews
I fear that our true motivation is about oil and our own flailing economy about the failure to destroy Al Qaeda and about revenge.
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
We look to our leaders once we elect them to either lead us in the right direction or at least not crush us.
