More quotes by Neil Diamond

Neil Diamond
As I said before, stones to me is meant things that hurt people, things that cause pain and thats what this song is about.
Neil Diamond
But you make me sing like a guitar humming . . .
Neil Diamond
Well, I Am... I Said was a very difficult song, very difficult because I really had to spend a lot of time thinking about what I was before the song was written.
Neil Diamond
Home's the most excellent place of all.
Neil Diamond
When I am not writing, I'm dying.

Songs are life in 80 words or less.
Neil Diamond
I don't pamper my voice. It's part of my body. If my body is rested and healthy, my voice is rested and healthy.
Neil Diamond
I definitely don't feel like I'm 71. I feel like I did when I was - between 30 and 40. The body ages. The mind doesn't.
Neil Diamond
I thought love was more or less a giving thing. Seems the more I gave, the less I got.
Neil Diamond
I am, I said to no one there and no one heard at all, not even a chair.
Neil Diamond
Love on the rocks, ain't no surprise. Pour me a drink and I'll tell you some lies.
Neil Diamond
Shame, it comes in every size, touches many lives, knocks on many doors.
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 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.
Neil Diamond
I've always thought of music as something which gives the words their flight and their wings and the music often comes first, although sometimes I'll have a concept, a title idea, a lyric idea that I want to write and the lyric will come first.
