The one thing about going from the audience to the stage in just three years is that you know how it feels to be down there.

Dream the dreams of other men, you'll be no ones rival.

It's an art to live with pain... mix the light into gray.
Eddie Vedder

I am a thief, I am a liar, I am George Bush and my son is an asshole.
Eddie Vedder

It seems like every time I start to feel good, something really awful happens. It's like... it's really terrible.
Eddie Vedder

It's important to have a life and spend time outside of those things [music and politics], in order to appreciate what you've achieved as far as just spending time with people you love, and doing things like painting.

The sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow's denied.

You know, rock stardom... I have a hard time discussing that because I don't really accept it. It's not really that tangible. What's really bizarre is how it's used as a thing - you know, 'He's the rock star of politics,' 'He's the rock star of quarterbacks' - like it's the greatest thing in the world.

When you're inside and you have no control and when you're the 14-year-old version of Frances Farmer, you know, you have reasons to be angry. You have reasons to be angry when your parents, who are very sheltered themselves, make decisions as to what you should experience in your life and what's normal and what's not.

At some point, when you read about this factual information that comes out in The New Zealand Herald and it's barely mentioned in The New York Times, then I think you've got to question where this is being manipulated, and where the filters are.

At a certain point, you realize you have a responsibility more behind yourself and your need for adrenaline. I'm glad I did things in my 20s that were more reckless.
Eddie Vedder
Image
It's a mystery to me We have a greed, with which we have agreed. You think you have to want more than you need. Until you have it all, you won't be free.

It's fun singing with other people who are really good singers. There's something kind of poignant about braiding a couple vocals.

It just seemed like I would. I mean, I didn't know him on a daily basis -- far from it. But, in a way, I don't even feel right being here without him. It's so difficult to really believe he's gone. I still talk about him like he's still here, you know. I can't figure it out. It doesn't make any sense.

We've got clouds and rain, just like in Seattle .. but Sao Paulo is better.
