More quotes by Jerry Garcia
Music is more objective, I think, than a lot of art is, but a surprising amount of it is cultural.
Jerry Garcia
This virtual reality stuff is the technological equivalent, really, of psychedelics.
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
We're like licorice. Not everybody likes licorice, but the people who like licorice really like licorice.
Jerry Garcia
I am not a keyboard person. The mouse is better.
Jerry Garcia
Every silver lining has a touch of grey.
Jerry Garcia
Constantly choosing the lesser of two evils is still choosing evil.
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
Some things may work, but they definitely won't work every time. Some things may work at various times.
Jerry Garcia
Each person makes their own decision about what it is that is happening, whether they like it or don't like it, whether they want to lend their energy to it or not or what, you know.
Jerry Garcia
In folk music, I've always been fond of the fragment. The song that has one verse. And you don't know anything about the characters, you don't know what they're doing, but they're doing something important. I love that. I'm really a sucker for that kind of song.
Jerry Garcia
I think it's too bad that everybody's decided to turn on drugs, I don't think drugs are the problem. Crime is the problem. Cops are the problem. Money's the problem. But drugs are just drugs.
Jerry Garcia
And the live show is still our main thing.
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
In this universe the top end is light and the bottom end is real hard stuff.
Jerry Garcia
The nature of what we're doing is something, which is by its very nature, is non-formulaic. There's no way that you can make it happen by intention alone. It's something that you have to sort of allow it to happen, and you have to allow for it to happen.
Jerry Garcia
every mind is at least as heavy as mine
Jerry Garcia
Truth is something you stumble into when you think you're going someplace else.
Jerry Garcia
Death comes at you no matter what you do in this life, and to equate drugs with death is a facile comparison.
Jerry Garcia
For me, I think the only danger is being too much in love with guitar playing. The MUSIC is the most important thing, and the guitar is only the instrument.
Jerry Garcia
