You’re in a relationship because you need help, but that's not necessarily why you should be in a relationship. And that's skinny. It doesn't have weight. Skinny love doesn't have a chance because it's not nourished.

More quotes by Justin Vernon
I just understand... I mean this may sound kind of bigheaded, bullheaded, or cumbersome, but when people say they've had a really deep experience with the record, like it caused a divorce or it like...I've gotten all these stories.
Justin Vernon
Every band sells t-shirts and plays certain auditoriums, but I'm sick of being like everyone else, because I'm not.
Justin Vernon
The whole point of being happy is not feeling like you have a job. I'm sure there are days where you're at your job and you're like, Oh my god, this is hard.
Justin Vernon
I'm a pretty shy guy when it comes to girls and sex.
Justin Vernon
What a unique opportunity to be in town. I love townies. I value it, so to speak.
Justin Vernon
I'm catching up. I'm satisfied with the show. I think I want to get better and better and keep building. It took a while to figure out how to do it. I didn't know how it was gonna go. I was just like, I better book a show and just see what happens.
Justin Vernon
We got in after a ten hour drive after sleeping for four hours. I'm not complaining here. I'm really not complaining. Ten hour drive to get here, we unload, we sound check, we get here we take photos, we do this. I haven't eaten anything today. It's like... And I'm not even hungry.
Justin Vernon
It's dangerous when music gets cornered by anything.
Justin Vernon
My favorite idea is doing an all-night tent show starring my friend's band Marijuana Deathsquads, where everyone would wear super-loud headphones, and there would be tons of subs and lights. It'd be really dope.
Justin Vernon
There's that whole thing that happens in relationships - you can love someone but, as soon as they stop loving you so unconditionally that they stop being themselves, it can be so dangerous.
Justin Vernon
Our lives feel like these epochs, but really we are dust in the wind.
Justin Vernon
You should be able to have happiness. If you don't have that, then you're not really bringing your whole self to the relationship.
Justin Vernon
It was all the things I wanted my music to be, but yet it wasn't grand and it wasn't obtuse - it wasn't overshooting, it wasn't undershooting, it was precise. The lyrics and the way that I was able to extract and excavate emotion within me.
Justin Vernon
Some songs, some nights won't do anything for you, but people enjoy them and that's the job. The magic is finding those places to stand in the song and gain perspective.
Justin Vernon
I told myself I never wanted to rent again. Even though it's a battle, I'm lucky cause I'm living in a cheaper part of the country. I just told myself I'm never going to do this again. I'm never gonna work, I'm never going to pay somebody rent again. I'm never going to sign another lease at least.
Justin Vernon
I think that's all I want in life, just like peace and be able to make music and like have happiness when it's time off. Spend time with people and family, whatever.
Justin Vernon
I'm trying to be like, Hey, dude, you're super happy, this is everything you've ever dreamed of - if you don't have somebody to hold hands with right now, everything's going to be OK, bro.
Justin Vernon
I could be worried about it if I had the wrong attitude. I don't think that I want my life and my daily occurrences to influence the direction. I don't want my daily life or my happiness to be a direct influence on music or my sadness.
Justin Vernon
I'm trying to think about stuff like that: How can a show not be just a whining guy with a guitar.
Justin Vernon
More and more into natural feelings rather than convoluted feelings or tastemaking or what have you. You always need critique, rock critics, but you can't take away people's taste. People are starting to, very slowly, do their own thing.
