All four winds together can't bring the world to me Shadows cast a play of light, so much I want to see Chase the sun around the world, I want to look at life-In the Available Light. I'll go with the wind, I'll stand in the light.

More quotes by Neil Peart
Throw off those chains of reason and your prison disappears.
Neil Peart
I'm less comfortable in a gregarious social situation, and you can be introverted and still share everything. It just means that you're guarded.
Neil Peart
Let your heart be the anchor and the beat of your song.
Neil Peart
Ever since I was a kid, I always wanted to play music that I liked, and even when I was in cover bands when I was a teenager we only played cover tunes that we liked. That was the simple morality that I grew up with.
Neil Peart
The measure of a life is a measure of love and respect, So hard to earn so easily burned In the fullness of time, A garden to nurture and protect It's a measure of a life The treasure of a life is a measure of love and respect, The way you live, the gifts that you give In the fullness of time, It's the only return that you expect
Neil Peart
I expect if you're a professional public speaker, you probably wouldn't want to go onstage and sing and play drums.
Neil Peart
Waiting for the winds of change to sweep the clouds away. Waiting for the rainbow's end to cast its gold your way ... You don't get something for nothing. You can't have freedom for free
Neil Peart
Pure libertarianism believes that people will be generous and help each other. Well, they won't. I wish it were so, and I live that way.
Neil Peart
Performing live in front of an audience is such a matter of will - all of those things you can do just fine in your basement, suddenly you have to do them in front of hundreds or thousands of people, and it becomes a different matter entirely.
Neil Peart
It's always a happy day when YYZ appears on our luggage tags.
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
One likes to believe in the freedom of music...
Neil Peart
Better the pride that resides as a citizen of the world than a pride that divides when a colorful rag is unfurled
Neil Peart
Sometimes you're up against everybody in the whole world - even your friends and family are saying, You need a single. You feel sometimes incredibly alone.
Neil Peart
Lessons taught but never learned, all around us anger burns. Guide the future by the past. Long ago the mould was cast.
Neil Peart
No, his mind is not for rent To any God or government Always hopeful yet discontent He knows changes aren't permanent But change is.
Neil Peart
More a paraphrase than a quote, really, but it comes from a prayer which was stitched into a sampler above my grandmother's bed. It began like this: 'Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep...'
Neil Peart
Extroverts never understand introverts, and it was like that in school days.
Neil Peart
Stamina is the force that drives the drumming it's not really a sprint.
Neil Peart
Innocence gave me confidence to go up against reality.
