I have no advice for anybody except to, you know, be awake enough to see where you are at any given time, and how that is beautiful, and has poetry inside. Even places you hate.

More quotes by Jeff Buckley
love is not a victory march, it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah.
Jeff Buckley
I've already created my own thing.
Jeff Buckley
Too young to hold on and too old to just break free and run
Jeff Buckley
I want to be ripped apart by music.
Jeff Buckley
A tune has to resonate with whatever is happening around it.
Jeff Buckley
Time to write and sing, to laugh, to listen, to discover, to cry, to love music.
Jeff Buckley
Be seriously involved with growing, with your own development, and never fear. Be the kind of person who is naturally powerful, positive, ingenious, open, to the highest degree. Be the best. No negativity. No weakness. No acquiescence to fear or disaster. No errors of ignorance. No evasion to reality.
Jeff Buckley
I've always felt that the quality of the voice is where the real content of a song lies. Words only suggest an experience, but the voice is that experience.
Jeff Buckley
She's a tear that hangs inside my soul forever.
Jeff Buckley
I like a spirituality with a God that knows how to drive a car, that knows how to take his girl to the dance club, dance all night, have a little drink, kiss the kid when they come back in and go to sleep. God doesn't need a chauffeur-- he needs to drive himself.
Jeff Buckley
I just want to be a guy with a guitar.
Jeff Buckley
If you do anything regularly for a while, sooner or later the weirdoes will show up.

I like cinematic art that doesn't have to include violence as the main meat of emotion. Now, excellence in cinema is based on murder, guns. Tarantino bores me. Even though he is very appealing and very facile about putting elements of pop culture into his work. But it kinds of dates it, right?
Jeff Buckley
I sacrificed my anonymity for my father, whereas he sacrificed me for his fame.
Jeff Buckley
I love anything that haunts me...and never leaves
Jeff Buckley
We are born to live, we are born to understand, we are born to carry a cursed pattern and be transformed by pain.
Jeff Buckley
To do something that will just fly away is kind of special. Every time somebody tell you they love you, that I love you flies away, and you wait until the next one.
Jeff Buckley
Grace is what matters. In anything. Especially life, especially growth, tragedy, pain, love, death. About people, that's what matters. That's a quality I admire very greatly. It keeps you from reaching for the gun too quickly it keeps you from destroying things too foolishly it sort of keeps you alive and keeps you open for more understanding.
Jeff Buckley
my kingdom for a kiss upon your shoulder lover you should have come over-
Jeff Buckley
The music can tell people everything they need to know about being human beings. It's not my information, it's not mine. I didn't make it. I just discovered it.
