More quotes by Jeff Buckley
Kiss me, please kiss me But kiss me out of desire, babe, and not consolation You know it makes me so angry 'cause i know that in time I'll only make you cry, this is our last goodbye.
Jeff Buckley
I resent the fact that a parental warning sticker has to be included on an album as cover art. To me that's censorship.
Jeff Buckley
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 don't want my reputation to take me over, I just want to be judged on my songs. I want people to come and see me because they want to, not because fashion dictates it.
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
love is not a victory march, it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah.
Jeff Buckley
There is no good singing, there is only present and absent.
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
Words are beautiful but restricted. They're very masculine, with a compact frame. But voice is over the dark, the place where there's nothing to hang on: it comes from a part of yourself that simply knows, expresses itself, and is.
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
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
Fate is gonna find you in your glass of champagne.
Jeff Buckley
I just want to have a completely adventurous, passionate, weird life.
Jeff Buckley
When all of this music sounds like you know what you want to say, then it will have been of all worth, ever. You will be something complete unto yourself, present and unique.
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
Too young to hold on and too old to just break free and run
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
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
I've already created my own thing.
