More quotes by Lou Reed
It's fun to be in a small club and to be able to look somebody right in the eye and watch them just freak. Then it's fun to be in front of thousands of people and watch a couple of hundred freaking out of their minds.
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

Lou Reed
I don't think anybody is anybody else's moral compass. Maybe listening to my music is not the best idea if you live a very constricted life. Or maybe it is.
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
I think life is far too short to concentrate on your past. I rather look into the future.
Lou Reed
I'm still not sure I didn't die
Lou Reed
I can concentrate on my art.
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
In the late '70s I started to search for the perfect sound - whatever that might be, before that I was mainly interested in drugs, insanity and the rock'n'roll lifestyle.
