More quotes by David Byrne
We've gone through the urban renewal cycle in the '60s and '70s that really did a lot of damage to the fabric of urban life - neighborhoods bulldozed and highways pushed through, and all that kind of stuff that really destroyed the kind of social underpinning and the kind of mom and pop stores and all the stuff that makes a community viable.
David Byrne

It's like 60 Minutes on acid.
David Byrne
I'm just an advertisement for a version of myself.
David Byrne
I read the NY Times but I don't trust all of it
David Byrne
As everything becomes digitized, there's the idea that things that can't be digitized become more valuable.
David Byrne
I think sometimes - not always - I write songs that are accessible.
David Byrne
Singing is a trick to get people to listen to music for longer than they would ordinarily.
David Byrne
I love getting out of my comfort zone.
David Byrne
People in Latin America... love America from afar and emulate America in some ways but also hate a lot of things that America does to them.
