More quotes by Justin Vernon
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.
Justin Vernon
People gather details and comparisons but it doesn't really bother me or land on me of any sort. I don't know if I was... Maybe I was influenced by them, maybe I wasn't, but I don't know. I was probably influenced by everything I've heard. So it doesn't bother me at all, but it doesn't sway me either.

Real person. real name. I won't divulge too much, but it's not a fake name. And it's not a fake person. I guess that's the best answer I can say: It's not a fake name and it's not a fake person. But it's not her real name and it's not a real person either.

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
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
There are decent people that I know who don't know how to treat their partner. It's been built up so hard and so high that people are afraid.
Justin Vernon
The amount of people that I feel like... I'm not being self-demeaning, but I actually feel like I'm not as cool as them, you know what I mean?
Justin Vernon
I don't want the big flashing lights and red carpet, like, Here comes another Bon Iver album! I just want it to be my bedroom-y thing. But that'll take a while to figure out.
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
Indie rock is just as susceptible - if not more susceptible - to all the gross things about people becoming total ass clowns in music, and only worrying about money and image. I'm not interested in being a part of that.
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
Apple is not thinking different anymore, they are getting worse by the day. They've become bottom-dollar and you can see that transition easily.
Justin Vernon
The songs started as a soundscapes, and then came the words and music each song took at least a year to make.
Justin Vernon
I can't see myself - I'm not really looking so far ahead in the future. I know that I kind of need to live in the country even though I'm not - my house isn't in the country right now. I bought a house, like a really tiny, cheap house in Wisconsin.
Justin Vernon
No matter how much you care about a person, you have to be able to know that you can sit down at night and be happy with who you are without that person. That's really hard when you're a lonely emo kid.
