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.

Lou Reed
Image
Eve kissed Able, that's how he got murdered by Cain.
Lou Reed
Image
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
Image
I don't believe in dressing up reality. I don't believe in using makeup to make things look smoother.
Lou Reed
Image
I think it's pretentious to create art just for the sake of stroking the artists ego.
Lou Reed
Image
I'm too old to do things by half
Lou Reed
Image
I'm tearing down Route 80 East, the sun's on my right side. I'm drunk, but my vision's good.

Some people drink to unleash their libidos, and other people drink to prop up their egos.
