I loved you for a long, long time I know this love is real It don't matter how it all went wrong That don't change the way I feel And I can't believe that time's Gonna heal this wound I'm speaking of There ain't no cure for love

More quotes by Leonard Cohen
The cutting of the gem has to be finished before you can see whether it shines.
Leonard Cohen
I don't think you can write novels on the road. You need a certain stability.
Leonard Cohen
The Dream O I had such a wonderful dream, she said. I dreamed you made love to me. At last, he said to himself, the spirit has taken up some of the heavy work.
Leonard Cohen
Everybody knows the dice are loaded.
Leonard Cohen
I try to make those references. I try to make sure that they're not too obscure. But outside of that, I dare not claim anything in the spiritual realm for my own.
Leonard Cohen
Dream after dream we all lie in each other's arms
Leonard Cohen
The art of longing's over, and it's never coming back.
Leonard Cohen
I'm neither left or right. I'm just staying home tonight, getting lost in that hopeless little screen.
Leonard Cohen
The fact that my songs take a long time to write is no guarantee of their excellence.
Leonard Cohen
I think what we like about music - and what we like about art in general....is that enterprise that stops our minds from spinning. Because we're always all over the place. A good song, a good lyric is a movie: it will just focus and calm and confer significance on this completely bewildering reality that all of us live in.
Leonard Cohen
I always considered myself a minor writer. My province is small, and I try to explore it very, very thoroughly.
Leonard Cohen
As our eyes grow accustomed to sight they armour themselves against wonder.
Leonard Cohen
I found that things became a lot easier when I no longer expected to win. You abandon your masterpiece and sink into the real masterpiece.
Leonard Cohen
Here's to the few who forgive what you do, and the fewer who don't even care
Leonard Cohen
It's like a bear stumbling into a beehive or a honey cache: I'm stumbling right into it and getting stuck, and it's delicious and it's horrible and I'm in it and it's not very graceful and it's very awkward and it's very painful and yet there's something inevitable about it.
Leonard Cohen
It's hard to be serious about so many things. [Look at the whole emphasis] on the charts, if you're a songwriter.
Leonard Cohen
My mind was always very cluttered, so I took great pains to simplify my environment, because if my environment were half as cluttered as my mind, I wouldn't be able to make it from room to room. This system has just worked for me, even though I've had to sweat over every word. It's just my style.
Leonard Cohen
Get ready for the future: it is murder.
Leonard Cohen
How bitter were the Prozac pills of the last few hundred mornings
Leonard Cohen
I cannot understand why my arm is not a lilac tree.
Leonard Cohen
