More quotes by Neil Peart

Neil Peart
Like a force of nature love can fade with the stars at dawn...
Neil Peart

It's always a happy day when YYZ appears on our luggage tags.
Neil Peart
Look in, look the storm in the eye. Look out, to the sea and the sky. Look around, at the sight and sound. Look in, look out, look around.

Neil Peart

Neil Peart
I want to be an improviser, and I've worked very hard at that. It's an art. You don't just play whatever comes into your head you have to be very deliberate about what you do.
Neil Peart
Throw off those chains of reason and your prison disappears.
Neil Peart
To get nostalgic about other people's music, or even about your own, makes a terrible statement about the condition of your life and your prospects for the future.
Neil Peart
Lotus-land as it appears in 'Free Will' is simply a metaphor for an idealized background, a 'land of milk and honey.' It is sometimes also used as a pejorative name for Los Angeles, though that was not in my mind when I wrote it.
Neil Peart
A quality of justice A quantity of light A particle of mercy Makes the color of right
Neil Peart
Let your heart be the anchor and the beat of your song.
Neil Peart
Dedicated to the future, with honor to the past.
