When people start asking you to do the same thing over and over again, that's when you know you're way too close to something that you don't want to be near.

More quotes by Neil Young
Studios are passe for me. I'd rather play in a garage, in a truck, or a rehearsal hall, a club, or a basement.
Neil Young
I think in some ways - only in some ways - but in some ways, rock and roll has let me down. It really doesn't leave you a way to grow old gracefully and continue to work.
Neil Young
I'll never be Bob Dylan. He's the master.
Neil Young
I want to be a reflection of what's going on and let people draw their own conclusions.
Neil Young
To protect our freedoms, it seems we're going to have to relinquish some of our freedoms for a short period of time.
Neil Young
I started writing Peace Trail here in Colorado, then I went back to California. I had a few other tunes going around in my head, so I had a couple of them finished after a few days and then I wanted to go into the studio.
Neil Young
It's injustice. It's wrong. [The pipeline companies] didn't get the permission. They didn't do the things they should have done in the first place. They tried to just bully their way through there and they got stopped. But they're not really stopping.
Neil Young
Hard working people stopping for a drink on the way to work.
Neil Young
We have a thousand points of light for the homeless man. We've got a kinder gentler machine gun hand.
Neil Young
I see a government completely out of control, and money is number one. Integrity isn't even on the map.
Neil Young
If you follow every dream, you might get lost.
Neil Young
Now I'm at a point where I decided I'm going to be in the studio for a while, at least until I finish this record I'm working on now. I should have two, three, four of the sessions that I had that were similar to the sessions for Peace Trail before I have a complete record.
Neil Young
The music world has taken a huge dump, so maybe there's a connection. So if Apple decided to do this, maybe they do their own version ... whatever they want to do it's a home run for music. Unless they screw it up, and try to put something on it so that they can own it - I'm calling it out, proprietary formats are not a good thing.
Neil Young
I think [song 'Can't Stop Workin'] it's the constant work performing and traveling. It gets to be a bit of a strain. But if you pace yourself, which I've managed to do, you can go pretty well.
Neil Young
I don't have to perform to stay in the public eye anymore. I really don't. I am who I am and what I do on musical stage these days really makes no difference at all. I already have all the momentum there. I am only doing it because I love to do it.
Neil Young
When the punk thing came along and I heard my friends saying, I hate these people with the pins in their ears. I said, Thank God, something got their attention.
Neil Young
Cocaine eyes won't hide your face.
Neil Young
We need to spread out now in the universe. I think in 100 years we'll be living on other planets.
Neil Young
And as an afterthought, this too must be told: Some people have taken pure bullshit and turned it into gold.
Neil Young
Steve Jobs was a digital pioneer, but when he went home, he listened to vinyl.
