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.

More quotes by 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'm trying to think about stuff like that: How can a show not be just a whining guy with a guitar.
Justin Vernon
The weird thing is I feel like I'm shedding skin so fast and I'm growing and I'm becoming a new person so quickly at a rate that I'm comfortable with, yet it seems faster and more steady than an other time in my life except 16, 17, 18. I just have to sit down and listen to the ideas I'm having. And I'm not worried.
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
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
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
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.
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
Irony is based on insecurity people like to not like things because they don't understand them.
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
Every band sells t-shirts and plays certain auditoriums, but I'm sick of being like everyone else, because I'm not.
Justin Vernon
I'm a pretty shy guy when it comes to girls and sex.
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
It's dangerous when music gets cornered by anything.
Justin Vernon
Oftentimes I’ll just overflow, and then I’ll need to spend a week alone and not talk to anybody or call anybody.
Justin Vernon
I'm super happy to see the record doing its thing and for people to like it, but for me, I had a great victory just as a person. I overstepped countless obstacles by creating that record. And the record's a metaphor for the personal steps I [took] throughout the past year.
Justin Vernon
The easiest thing to feel is sadness.
Justin Vernon
As a fan of Kanye West, working with him is insane.
Justin Vernon
I'd have to think about it, but I was listening to this Johnny Cash song today that Tom Waits wrote for him - I think that's the story. For some reason it's a thing that sticks in my brain. He's describing this scene where he sees all these almost biblical images happening kind of in this burrow where this biblical train runs through this yard.
Justin Vernon
I feel like this thing [that] we're rocking back and forth like we're stuck in a snow bank and we all sort of know it. I feel like people are getting less and less pretentious and less and less hip - hopefully.
