More quotes by Lou Reed
People can vote for who ever they want. That doesn't mean I have to go near them.
Lou Reed
I have no control over the audience. I have no idea what they think. My heart's pure. I can't do anything. I really can't do anything. I don't know what goes on in the crowd.
Lou Reed
What I really love is my scotch. It's the power, the power of positive 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
And no kinds of love are better than others
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
It always bothers me to see people writing RIP when a person dies. It just feels so insincere and like a cop out. To me, RIP is the microwave dinner of posthumous honours.
Lou Reed
Let's do what you fear most That from which you recoil But which still makes your eyes moist
Lou Reed
I think that everything happens for a reason, everything happens when it's going to happen.
Lou Reed
The music is all. People should die for it. People are dying for everything else, so why not the music?
Lou Reed
Over what guilty spirit to not hear the beating, to not hear the beating, but only tears of perfect moan, only tears of perfect moan.
Lou Reed
Writhe and sway to music's pain searing with asides, caress death with a lover's touch for it shall be your bride.
Lou Reed
Life's like a mayonnaise soda.
Lou Reed
I wanted to be an actor. That was my real goal. But I wasn't any good at it, so I wrote my own material and acted through that. That's my idea of fun. I get to be all these things in the songs.
Lou Reed
The rich son waits for his father to die, the poor just drink and cry.
Lou Reed
I mean, there are peripheral things I do, I do photography, I write plays, I have books published, but that's neither here not there.
Lou Reed
I'm too old to do things by half
Lou Reed
I've become completely well adjusted to being a cult figure.
Lou Reed
I don't mind a repetitive chorus I mind repetitive verse. I mean, it's the same amount of space. Why would you have only three diamonds if you can have six?
Lou Reed
But I found tai chi when I was studying with Leung Shum, who teaches Eagle Claw and Wu Hao.
