More quotes by Lou Reed
I tried to give up drugs by drinking.
Lou Reed
The sickness of the mother runs on through the girl, leaving her small and helpless. Liquor flies through her brain with the force of a gun, leaving her running in circles.
Lou Reed
Psychologically, it's better that I think that I'm dirt.
Lou Reed
All the people have gone to war leaving no interrogator to mind.
Lou Reed
What I really love is my scotch. It's the power, the power of positive drinking.
Lou Reed
I try very much, whenever I do projects, whatever it is, there's only one thing on my mind, only one thing.
Lou Reed
Perfect Night is minimalistic and that's what makes it so forceful.
Lou Reed
My God is rock'n'roll. It's an obscure power that can change your life. The most important part of my religion is to play guitar.
Lou Reed
She never ever lost her head even when she was giving head.
Lou Reed
As the dead rise to live, the live sink to die, the currents are deep and raging inside.
Lou Reed
People can vote for who ever they want. That doesn't mean I have to go near them.
Lou Reed
When I saw that combination of grace and power, the fast and the soft, the yin and the yang, that's what I'd been looking for.
Lou Reed
I'm tearing down Route 80 East, the sun's on my right side. I'm drunk, but my vision's good.
Lou Reed
With Master Ren, if I'd tell him I can't do that and he'd say, yes you can, and it turns out I very much can do it.
Lou Reed
All I want to do, is write rock and roll that you could listen to as you got older, and it wouldn't lose anything it would be timeless, in the subject matter and the literacy of the lyrics.
Lou Reed
You can't ask me to explain the lyrics because I won't do it.
Lou Reed
But it's not only: What are you going to do about touring, it's: What are you going to do with your life? Is there a point to what we do? I think there is. Making music, creating beautiful things. We have to be in love with the good and the beautiful. If we are not, then you're in a nihilistic state.
Lou Reed
My week beats your year.
Lou Reed
As you practice things, you get better. I mean I've worked very hard on changing my life and taking what is good about it and trying to jettison the things I think were not good about it. I think the key word is discipline, focus. I'm always working at it, but I'm not always successful.
Lou Reed
You're going to reap just what you sow
