More quotes by Leonard Cohen
And I'll dance with you in Vienna, I'll be wearing a river's disguise. The hyacinth wild on my shoulder my mouth on the dew of your thighs. And I'll bury my soul in a scrapbook, with the photographs there and the moss. And I'll yield to the flood of your beauty, my cheap violin and my cross.
Leonard Cohen
You have money, fame, youth, beauty, talent. That's a good start... for feeling good.
Leonard Cohen
You who build these altars now to sacrifice these children , you must not do it anymore. A scheme is not a vision and you never have been tempted by a demon or a god .
Leonard Cohen
Garages, barns and attics are always older than the buildings to which they are attached.
Leonard Cohen
If you want a lover I'll do anything you ask. If you want a different kind of love I'll wear a mask. If you want to strike me down in anger here I stand. If you want a partner in life take my hand. I'm your man.
Leonard Cohen
Journalists, especially English journalists, were very cruel to me. They said I only knew three chords when I knew five!
Leonard Cohen
It’s a pity if someone… has to console himself for the wreck of his days with the notion that somehow his voice, his work embodies the deepest, most obscure, freshest, rawest oyster of reality in the unfathomable refrigerator of the heart’s ocean, but I am such a one, and there you have it.
Leonard Cohen
It's you my love, you who are the stranger.
Leonard Cohen
Israel, and you who call yourself Israel, the Church that calls itself Israel, and the revolt that calls itself Israel, and every nation chosen to be a nation - none of these lands is yours, all of you are thieves of holiness, all of you at war with Mercy.
Leonard Cohen
Please make me empty, if I'm empty then I can receive, if I can receive it means it comes from somewhere outside of me, if it comes from outside of me I'm not alone! I cannot bear this loneliness. Above all it is loneliness.
Leonard Cohen
But remember when I moved in you And the holy dove was moving too And every breath we drew was Hallelujah.
Leonard Cohen
The duty of lovers is to tarnish the Golden Rule
Leonard Cohen
When you stop thinking about yourself all the time, a certain sense of repose overtakes you.
Leonard Cohen
I didn't want to write for pay. I wanted to be paid for what I write.
Leonard Cohen
I cannot understand why my arm is not a lilac tree.
Leonard Cohen
Act the way you'd like to be and soon you'll be the way you act.
Leonard Cohen
Love is a fire/It burns everyone/It disfigures everyone/It is the world's excuse for being ugly.
Leonard Cohen
Here's to the few who forgive what you do, and the fewer who don't even care
Leonard Cohen
We actually lead very violent, passionate lives and I think that we're hungry for insights into this condition. That's why we get all that stuff on television. It's really where we are, really what we are.
Leonard Cohen
Fare thee well my nightingale, I lived but to be near you. Thow you are singing somewhere still I can no longer hear you.
Leonard Cohen
