I like to play with people who can play simple and are not threatened by other musicians thinking they can't play. And that eliminates 99 percent of the musicians.

More quotes by Neil Young
Faith builds the bridge from this old world to the new.
Neil Young
There's a lot of frustration in trying to get music out when you're the only one who hears it, especially if you have something in your head that's not normal.
Neil Young
We live in the digital age, and unfortunately it's degrading our music, not improving.
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
Freedom of choice is meaningless without knowledge. That's why it's crucial we all get engaged and get informed.
Neil Young
I don't know if I want White America to remember or fortoget that Jesus Christ was the first non-violent revolutionary.
Neil Young
I do one take I never overdubbed twice. I know there's stuff that isn't perfect, but it doesn't matter: Nothing is perfect, and there is a magic there that is undeniable because of the fact that we don't care about those things.
Neil Young
I don't like the current political system in the USA and some other countries. Increasingly democracy has been hijacked by corporate interests.
Neil Young
I have no idea who's steering, and I don't really care .. I just keep going whatever the inclination is ... there are threads that are continuous and hold everything together and a major thread is country music.
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 love it when people yell at me about the environment and then I tell 'em I'm burning 90% cleaner than them.
Neil Young
My dad passed away...and suddenly I found myself at the top of the tree and looking at the sky instead of at my mom and dad.
Neil Young
Like a mountain that's growing.
Neil Young
As I get older, I get smaller. I see other parts of the world I didn't see before. Other points of view. I see outside myself more.
Neil Young
An idea discovered is much better possessed.
Neil Young
Link Wray... He was the beginning of Grunge, way before anybody you know.
Neil Young
Most pleasures, like flowers when gathered die.
Neil Young
Don't think. The worst songs I've ever written happen when I think.
Neil Young
Some get stoned, some get strange, but sooner or later it all gets real.
Neil Young
Did He give me the gift of love to say who I could choose? When God made me did He give me the gift of voice so some could silence me? Did he give me the gift of vision not knowing what I might see? Did he give me the gift of compassion to help my fellow man?
Neil Young
