Leonard Cohen

Leonard Cohen
Most of our distractions are designed to invite us away from this recognition, which is a good idea.
Leonard Cohen
Do not be a magician - be magic!
Leonard Cohen
Everybody knows that you've been faithful, give or take a night or two.

Like a bird on a wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir, I have tried in my way to be free!!
Leonard Cohen
Get ready for the future: it is murder.
Leonard Cohen
I didn't want to write for pay. I wanted to be paid for what I write.
