More quotes by Jackson Browne

Jackson Browne

Jackson Browne

Jackson Browne
I followed those highway signs and I've run down those thin white lines.
Jackson Browne
Coffee in the morning, cocaine afternoons.
Jackson Browne

Jackson Browne

Jackson Browne
Hunger in the midnight, hunger at the stroke of noon Hunger in the banquet, hunger in the bride and groom Hunger on the TV, hunger on the printed page And there's a God-sized hunger underneath the questions of the age
Jackson Browne
I look around for the friends I used to turn to pull me through. Looking into their eyes, I see them running, too.
Jackson Browne
As far as those kinds of things, I also played at the concert to call for the release of Nelson Mandela when he was a political prisoner in South Africa. We were celebrating his 70th birthday and calling for his release.
Jackson Browne
I want to find myself a girl who can show me what laughter means, and we'll fill in the missing numbers in each others paint-by-numbers dreams.
Jackson Browne
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels. Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields.
Jackson Browne
I told my father I wanted to play the banjo, and so he saved the money and got ready to give me a banjo for my next birthday, and between that time and my birthday, I lost interest in the banjo and was playing guitar.
Jackson Browne
I let her do some of my laundry and she slipped in a few meals in between, and next thing I remember, she was all moved in.
Jackson Browne
It was a great time to be born, because I got to have my own publishing company right from the beginning, so I made more money than somebody would have doing what I did ten or fifteen years before.
