More quotes by Jerry Garcia
I am not a keyboard person. The mouse is better.
Jerry Garcia
See, there's only two theaters, man that are set up pretty groovy all around for music and for smooth stage changes, good lighting and all that - the Fillmore and The Capitol Theatre. And those are the only two in the whole country.
Jerry Garcia
There is some art that says the same thing to everybody. WE need something like that. What that is, I don't know. But virtual reality may be the key to it.
Jerry Garcia
I'm shopping around for something to do that no one will like.
Jerry Garcia
Done time in the lock-up, done time on the streets. Done time on the upswing, and time in defeat. I know what I'm askin'. I know it's a lot. Just to say that I love you. Believe it or not.
Jerry Garcia
And when you don't have to talk to the person next to you, that's real clean. Takes a certain thing not to try to keep anything up, not to have to entertain one another.
Jerry Garcia
And there's a lot of that stuff with people bringing their kids, kids bringing their parents, people bringing their grandparents - I mean, it's gotten to be really stretched out now. It was never my intention to say, this is the demographics of our audience.
Jerry Garcia
If we had any nerve at all, if we had any real balls as a society, or whatever you need, whatever quality you need, real character, we would make an effort to really address the wrongs in this society, righteously.
Jerry Garcia
At some point or another, our boundaries run into the boundaries of the exterior reality. Like we run into laws and other things that we don't own or don't have control over.
Jerry Garcia
Listening. That's what music is about. You hear it. And I'd listen to it and something would move me one way or another and I would try and play it.
Jerry Garcia
If the thunder don't get ya then the lightning will.
Jerry Garcia
It's odd that there is a high level of appreciation of nature. There is the aesthetic side that really loves nature and beauty.
Jerry Garcia
You can't repeat things because each time is different. The universe has changed. Everything has changed.
Jerry Garcia
You need to have many points of reference many places to touch down and make contact with.
Jerry Garcia
We're involved in a society which is undergoing some really weird changes now.
Jerry Garcia
It's a joke. Greed and the desire to take drugs are two separate things. If you want to separate the two, the thing you do is make drugs legal. Accept the reality that people do want to change their consciousness, and make an effort to make safer, healthier drugs.
Jerry Garcia
It's much too late to do anything about rock & roll now.
Jerry Garcia
I'm not trying to clock scores in this lifetime, it's just that things are better now than they were like five, ten years ago. Music has gotten a lot better. There's a lot of people who are committed to - soulfully.
Jerry Garcia
We would all like to be able to live an uncluttered life, a simple life, a good life.
Jerry Garcia
We were very fortunate to have a a little time in history when LSD was still legal and were able to experiment with drugs just like we were doing with music.
