I have a lot of confidence, but little Self-Esteem. This has given me a tremendous creative spark because it forced me to keep proving myself.

More quotes by Neil Diamond
Love is still a simple act of faith, and a faithful heart is always worth the wait.
Neil Diamond
When I first started, I worked with three chords in every bar, but I found that tied me down - I'm not a chord-change writer, I'm a songwriter.
Neil Diamond
I thought love was more or less a giving thing. Seems the more I gave, the less I got.
Neil Diamond
I've spent my whole life trying to find out who I am, so I could express that through the music.
Neil Diamond
I used to go to my kids' soccer games and I was the only parent who wasn't screaming, because I'd have to do a show that night. It was hard. Moms and dads get more emotional at those soccer and Little League games than at a professional game.
Neil Diamond
I may have a little bit of a talent for music, but I've learnt to tap into my own self when I write. When I put the drill bit inside my heart, sometimes I come up with something light and frothy, sometimes with something deep and painful, but it's great to connect with the audience.
Neil Diamond
My voice is unadorned. I don't try for perfection. I try to be honest and truthful and soulful with the voice I have. If I make mistakes in notes, or there are cracks in notes, I don't fix them. That's the way it is.
Neil Diamond
September morn Do you remember how we danced that night away Two lovers playing scenes from some romantic play September morning still can make me feel this way.
Neil Diamond
Shilo, when I was young, I used to call you name.
Neil Diamond
I don't like all of the music to be serious and deadly.
Neil Diamond
I was always trying to win the world, but somewhere I lost you.
Neil Diamond
Free, only want to be free, we huddle close, hang on to a dream.
Neil Diamond
I suppose that being moved to write a song is more applicable to me, I have to be moved, I have to have a reason to write a particular song.
Neil Diamond
Melinda was mine 'til the time that I found her holding Jim, loving him.
Neil Diamond
Acting is a specific discipline. Just because you can sing doesn't mean you have the sensitivities of being an actor.
Neil Diamond
When I need my wife or when I need companionship or someone to talk to, I need it, like, now. So my wife will have to give up whatever she's doing at that moment to tend to my needs. And in the same way, I would tend to hers. That's not such an easy thing to do.
Neil Diamond
Love on the rocks, ain't no surprise. Pour me a drink and I'll tell you some lies.
Neil Diamond
While the sun God will may your day, sing as a song in search of a voice that is silent, and the one God will make for your way.
Neil Diamond
I like having a woman. I like having someone to come home to, to make all of the hard work feel worth it. I need someone with me. And I want someone.
Neil Diamond
Then come and as we lay, beside this sleepy glade, there I will sing to you my Longfellow serenade.
Neil Diamond
