More quotes by Neil Diamond
I am, I said to no one there and no one heard at all, not even a chair.
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
Songs are life in 80 words or less.
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
My writing is different. I think it's better. I think it's deeper. But, strangely enough, it covers a lot of the old ground. Maybe it says it in a more sophisticated way ... but I [have written] about basically the same subjects over the years.
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.
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

Neil Diamond
Touch a man who can't walk up right, and that lame man, he's gonna fly.
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
You like to think that it's something you created, but secretly you know that you had some kind of help, or somebody gave this to you.
Neil Diamond
Song Sung Blue took a lot of compressing and refining, and it has one of my favorite lyrics.
Neil Diamond
When you're on a merry-go-round, you miss a lot of the scenery.
Neil Diamond
I followed all life's pleasures wherever they would lead, but someone I can treasure is all I really need.
Neil Diamond
I fell in love with folk music at Surprise Lake Camp. It was the songs of Woody Guthrie and the Weavers.
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
Brooklyn is not the easiest place to grow up in, although I wouldn't change that experience for anything.
Neil Diamond
I do have a large audience overseas, and I want to continue to be an international artist.
