More quotes by 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

Jackson Browne

Jackson Browne
Famine and disaster, right there in front of you, and the more you watch, the less you do.
Jackson Browne
But when you know that you've got a real friend somewhere, suddenly all the others are so much easier to bear.
Jackson Browne
Where the search for the truth is conducted with a wink and a nod And where power and position are equated with the grace of God These times are famine for the soul while for the senses it's a feast From the edge of my country, as far as you see, looking east
Jackson Browne

Jackson Browne
Rock me on the water Sister will you soothe my fevered brow Rock me on the water I'll get down to the sea somehow
Jackson Browne

Jackson Browne
Somewhere between the time you arrive and the time you go may lie a reason you were alive, but you'll never know.
Jackson Browne
I followed those highway signs and I've run down those thin white lines.
Jackson Browne
And my dad wanted me to play the trumpet because that's what he liked. His idol was Louis Armstrong. My dad thought my teeth came together in a way that was perfect for playing the trumpet.
Jackson Browne
Take it easy, take it easyDon't let the sound of your own wheelsDrive you crazy.
Jackson Browne
Do the steps that you've been shown, by everyone you've ever known, until the dance becomes your very own.
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.
Jackson Browne
Let the disappointments pass Let the laughter fill your glass Let the illusions last until they shatter Whatever you might hope to find among the thoughts that crowd your mind There won't be many that ever really matter.
Jackson Browne
No matter how close to yours another's steps have grown, in the end there is one dance you'll do alone.
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
Don't confront me with my failures, I had not forgotten them.
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
