More quotes by Eddie Vedder

Eddie Vedder
Sometimes, whether you like it or not, people elevate you. It's real easy to fall.
Eddie Vedder
After the Ramones, it was more about new wave for me than punk.
Eddie Vedder
Everytime I see the Spice Girls, it makes me want to try to fly by climbing my roof and strapping bricks to my shoes.
Eddie Vedder
I'm optimistic yet disillusioned, hopeful yet frustrated.
Eddie Vedder

Music was your real passion, this thing you held dear even above family. It was this relationship that never betrayed you.

As far as viewpoints, I think I'm more well-rounded and definitely more educated, and probably more hopeful than I used to be. I think when you're young and you get into a cause, you get frustrated with it within a few years, or six months.
Eddie Vedder
I've never been a calm, midrange type person.
Eddie Vedder
I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how to say things. I'm a little exhausted by the process.
Eddie Vedder
If you're anti-war it doesn't mean you are 'Pro' one side or the other in a conflict. However, it does make you 'Pro' many thingsPro-Peace, Pro-Human, Pro-Evolution, it makes you Pro-Communication, Pro-Diplomacy, Pro-Love, Pro-Understanding, Pro-Forgiveness.
Eddie Vedder
Cannot find the comfort in this world.
Eddie Vedder
I would do anything to be around music. You don't even have to pay me.
Eddie Vedder
I was able to apply ukulele to whatever I'm trying to write. It's become part of songwriting for me, the knowledge I gained from hearing the melodies come out, and then applying that to guitar or vocals.
Eddie Vedder
I would thank God, but I don't believe in it.
Eddie Vedder
Music's at its best when it has a purpose.
Eddie Vedder
That makes it even more offensive to me that she's interested in our band and she did something for Slaughter.
Eddie Vedder
I got a great grandma. Her name is Pearl, and she was at one time married to an Indian chief, who, in a wonderful crossing of cultures, she integrated some of his, and some of hers, and um, it was a combination of peyote and preserves, and it was this hallucinogenic jam.
