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.

More quotes by 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
Every band sells t-shirts and plays certain auditoriums, but I'm sick of being like everyone else, because I'm not.
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.
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
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
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
A lot of people change their band names because they're looking for a change of atmosphere.
Justin Vernon
I am generalizing, of course, but in hip-hop, it's like you get this shine for using the word pussy a billion times, and I think that that's weirdly healthier than not doing it at all - even though I really hope it ends soon because, you know, how many decades can we do that?
Justin Vernon
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.
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
Our lives feel like these epochs, but really we are dust in the wind.
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
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 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
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
Hopefully, most days, you're like, This is sweet. I wake up and do the things that I do and I'm usually smiling. That's how my dad is with his job.
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'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
The easiest thing to feel is sadness.
