More quotes by Jack White
Art doesn't sell itself, it has to be sold.
Jack White
In my bands, I don't really walk around telling people what to play, just out of respect really. I mean, if there's something I feel in my gut, I'll bring it up.
Jack White
Passion is the breath we take, the water we drink to sustain ourselves. Without air and water we perish without passion an artist will wither and blow away.
Jack White
Your attitude is more important than the events happening around you. Artists develop a syndrome taught in art schools. It is a malady titled, 'Artistic Temperament'... rudeness, excuses, slovenliness, laziness, clutter, addictions, non-commercial attitudes, un-professionalism... and a good reason for failure.
Jack White
I have so many projects to work on I'm going to have to live to at least 120 to get some of them done.
Jack White
I probably could have a hip-hop-style entourage of 40 people coming with me to the club or whatever, and I don't do that. And I think sometimes maybe I should. It just makes things easier - if you don't like being by yourself, maybe just don't do it ever.
Jack White
In all my songs, I take on roles and play characters. It's a unique way to explore ideas and decisions I might not think or make in real life.
Jack White
The wonderful news is that when a person with my lack of art background can be successful, then anyone can. I'm not super talented and had no art training. Nothing, nada, zip. No workshops or classes.
Jack White
I know that's blasphemous when you are from Detroit, but I was never a fan of Motown stuff. I don't care for the production much.
Jack White
Music is what I have to do, I only answer the questions so that I can do it.
Jack White
Collectors are paying for our education by purchasing our art.
Jack White
Happiness is more important than money any day.
Jack White
There are distractions, all around. There's so much media, for a young kid to battle against, to get to something soulful. You have to make a decision, on your own, what you can take from these people, if you can dig deeper. It's nice to be able to let people dig deeper.
Jack White
The secret is planning your work and working your plan. If you don't know where you are going, how will you know when you arrive? You can't stumble upon your destination.
Jack White
For new bands, I think a major label is the safest place to be. Independent labels are the ones getting away with murder. A lot of them are hobbyists who rip-off young bands, taking advantage of people who would never get signed to a major.
Jack White
There have been three times. Once I got in a car accident and shattered my finger. A few years ago I didn't feel like being alive. That's all I can say.
Jack White
It is the pursuit of happiness that brings us happiness, and not the happiness achieved.
Jack White
The most exciting rock 'n' roll band of the last 50 years who are still on the road today
Jack White
When you put something out there into the world, there's all these words you don't want to hear, that you hope people don't say. I don't like anything that starts with 're' - like retro, reinvent, recreate - I hate that. It's always like living in the past - copying, emulating.
Jack White
The Bottom Line: If people don't LOVE our work, we will not be able to sell what we make.
