More quotes by Leonard Cohen
My two great heroes are W. B. Yeats and Federico Garcia Lorca.
Leonard Cohen
I've seen the future and it's murder.
Leonard Cohen
I've expressed my gratitude to my son many times. And his career is far from undistinguished, and it was a great privilege to have someone of this skill bringing this album to conclusion.
Leonard Cohen
Most of our distractions are designed to invite us away from this recognition, which is a good idea.
Leonard Cohen
The psychologists are valiantly trying to provide us with answers, the religious people are trying to provide us with answers. I think it properly falls on the cultural workers to investigate this predicament with a little less concern for the marketplace and a little more concern for their higher calling.
Leonard Cohen
Here's to the few who forgive what you do, and the fewer who don't even care
Leonard Cohen
[Prozac] didn't seem to have any effect whatsoever on my melancholy, my dark vision, and everything else that I'd taken it for.
Leonard Cohen
How bitter were the Prozac pills of the last few hundred mornings
Leonard Cohen
Love is a fire/It burns everyone/It disfigures everyone/It is the world's excuse for being ugly.
Leonard Cohen
Seven to eleven is a huge chunk of life, full of dulling and forgetting. It is fabled that we slowly lose the gift of speech with animals, that birds no longer visit our windowsills to converse. As our eyes grow accustomed to sight they armor themselves against wonder.
Leonard Cohen
One is given to self-dramatization from time to time. I intend to live forever.
Leonard Cohen
The art of longing's over, and it's never coming back.
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
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
There is a war between the ones who say there is a war and the ones who say there isn't.
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
Music is the emotional life of the most people.
Leonard Cohen
The cutting of the gem has to be finished before you can see whether it shines.
Leonard Cohen
You lose your grip, and then you slip into the Masterpiece.
Leonard Cohen
The big change is the proximity to death.
Leonard Cohen
