More quotes by David Byrne
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, this ain't no fooling around.
David Byrne
One knew in advance that life in New York would not be easy‚ but there were cheap rents in cold-water lofts without heat‚ and the excitement of being here made up for those hardships. I didn't move to New York to make a fortune.
David Byrne
I love getting out of my comfort zone.
David Byrne
If anything, a lot of electronic music is music that no one listens to at home, hardly. It's really only to be heard when everyone's out enjoying it.
David Byrne
Everything's intentional. It's just filling in the dots.
David Byrne
I don't care how impossible it seems.
David Byrne

David Byrne
Life tends to be an accumulation of a lot of mundane decisions, which often gets ignored.
David Byrne
I couldn't take pictures of green rolling hills.
David Byrne
I don't believe that crime, danger and poverty make for good art. That's bullshit.
David Byrne
The most common music that you hear anywhere in the world now basically has its roots in that union that happened in the last century, or in the century before that. That kind of music that's groove or beat oriented just didn't exist in lots of cultures before that.
David Byrne
Is giving in to the photographer's presumably natural impulse to compose and light well sometimes okay and not okay other times?
David Byrne
As everything becomes digitized, there's the idea that things that can't be digitized become more valuable.
David Byrne
It's more about the stuff you think about when you're getting from place to place on a bicycle than it is about actually riding the bicycle.
David Byrne
When everything is worth money, then money is worth nothing.
David Byrne
