More quotes by Jeff Buckley
I'm convinced I got signed because of who I am. And it makes me sad.
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
Your soul can fly outward, stringed to your ribcage like a shimmering kite in the shape of an open hand. Be still and listen to the evidence of your own holiness.
Jeff Buckley
Time to write and sing, to laugh, to listen, to discover, to cry, to love music.
Jeff Buckley
love is not a victory march, it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah.
Jeff Buckley
my kingdom for a kiss upon your shoulder lover you should have come over-
Jeff Buckley
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.
Jeff Buckley
I just want to be a guy with a guitar.
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.
Jeff Buckley
There is no good singing, there is only present and absent.
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
Sensitivity isn't about being wimpy. It's about being so painfully aware that a flea landing on a dog is like a sonic boom
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
Music is my mother and my father it is my work and my rest...my blood...my compass...my love.
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
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
If you do anything regularly for a while, sooner or later the weirdoes will show up.
Jeff Buckley
My favorite kind of music is the stuff that stops time. You put something on to sit there and let an experience go through you. To look at yourself clearly through a song. It's true of all art, all mediums, but for some reason music has a direct line straight into people.
Jeff Buckley
I sacrificed my anonymity for my father, whereas he sacrificed me for his fame.
Jeff Buckley
Above all do not give yourself airs. Breaking the moment of past habits is the challenge here: In the life of the spirit you are always at the beginning.
