More quotes by Jon Foreman
It was a beautiful letdown, the day I knew, that all the riches this world had to offer me, will never do.
Jon Foreman
As far as when I'm writing a song, I think I'm writing first and foremost for myself.
Jon Foreman
Life is a battlefield. I don't have enough time on the planet to play games.
Jon Foreman
I've never really had a desk job, but I've died one day at a time all over the place.
Jon Foreman
I think despair and cynicism are two different things. On the flip side of hope is despair. Belief and doubt are the same thing, in that to believe something you have to actively doubt the opposite. And from my perspective, that's the deep end. You're dealing with the unknown you're dealing with mystery.
Jon Foreman
When I'm happy, when I'm enjoying life, I'm home, I'm surfing, I'm spending time with my wife, my friends and I'm not thinking about the pain. And then the moment I encounter something that feels difficult, I feel like that's when, for me, I turn to writing and thinking and maybe a song comes from that.
Jon Foreman
For me, I want to create a environment for the songs to live in. So one song by itself only tells a piece of the story, but in the context of the album, more of the colors are revealed.
Jon Foreman
I use to think that the friction was a bad thing. Everything is to ease pain in our society pain is very much the enemy. And I don't think that's true. Tension is a good thing. To be pulled tight: that's the only way you can make a proper noise on the guitar or violin.
Jon Foreman
I wanna be a part of the generation that throws out money, throws out time, throws out all that we are against something bigger than ourselves.
Jon Foreman
The easiest thing to do is throw a rock. It's a lot harder to create a stained glass window. I used to get upset at the people who threw rocks but now I'd rather spend my time building the stained glass windows.
Jon Foreman
Let me know that you hear me, let me know Your touch, let me know that You love me, and let that be enough
Jon Foreman
Inside all of us, we know the truth of life that there's something more than the next new cell phone or gadget or relationship and that our heart beats in time with the sunset.
Jon Foreman
I love a good pop song. I have no problem with the concept of doing that sort of thing. For me, it's usually what I'm inspired by, what I'm thinking about.
Jon Foreman
Hope is not a substitute for pain. Hope is in spite of pain.
Jon Foreman
If you truly love someone, you're going to be pure because true love comes from God, and God tells us to remain pure. That's good enough for me.
Jon Foreman
You wake up, you wake up, another day, you wake up, you wake up, traffic still moving at the same speed, our eyes looking at the same speed, our minds thinking at the same speed, I wanna see movement, I wanna see change. I wanna wake up for real. I wanna wake up. I wanna wake up. We were meant to live.
Jon Foreman
Calling has this weight that somehow we think that your calling is fixed. That your calling is this line that you’ve finally found and now you're on that track and that’s what you’re gonna do forever and maybe that's the case. But I feel like calling has much more to to do with the moment that you’re in.
Jon Foreman
If you can have a couple of tight friends that you can tell things to, that you can say, 'Hey, this is what I'm struggling with,' and then pray and talk about it, then that's an incredible thing.
Jon Foreman
Nothing stays together without a fight.
Jon Foreman
I began thinking about the idea of a 24 hour concert. What if you tied songs to certain hours of the day - creating a 24 hour world of lyric and melody. So that was the inspiration for this project.
