More quotes by Lou Reed
Psychologically, it's better that I think that I'm dirt.
Lou Reed
When critics ask you if you feel vindicated by other critics - I didn't like critics then, and I don't like them now. There you go. I've always been outside the mainstream, and it stayed that way.
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
You're a musician: You play. That's what you do.
Lou Reed

Lou Reed
Some people drink to unleash their libidos, and other people drink to prop up their egos.
Lou Reed
If it has more than three chords, it's jazz.
Lou Reed
Perfect Night is minimalistic and that's what makes it so forceful.
Lou Reed

Lou Reed
I think it's pretentious to create art just for the sake of stroking the artists ego.
Lou Reed
The most important thing is work.
Lou Reed
My attitude is that you very rarely come in contact with someone of Master Ren's level, so every opportunity I could get to learn from him I wanted to do that.
Lou Reed
Between thought and expression lies a lifetime.
Lou Reed
I've made love to my mother, killed my father, and my brother. What am I to do?
Lou Reed
Moving on has allowed me to know who I am and to be present in all that I do. I take this forward in my work and in my personal relationships. It is a powerful program and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to move on with their life.
Lou Reed
