More quotes by 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 want to be a reflection of what's going on and let people draw their own conclusions.
Neil Young
I don't like war. I particularly don't like the celebration of war, which I think the administration is a little bit guilty of.
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
Without freedom of expression, good taste means nothing.
Neil Young
Southern change gonna come at last! Now your crosses are burning fast, Southern Man.
Neil Young
Though my problems are meaningless, that don't make them go away.
Neil Young
Let's roll for justice, let's roll for truth. Let's not let our children grow up fearful in their youth.
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
Most people think it's the other way around: that time is going faster and we're doing less. But really time seems to be going faster because we're cramming so much into it.
Neil Young
We don't build a record. We're taking a picture of it. We're not building an image we're capturing an image.
Neil Young
A young man of pleasure is a man of pains.
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
And as an afterthought, this too must be told: Some people have taken pure bullshit and turned it into gold.
Neil Young
It's a blue album, but it's not a blues album. I'm not pretending all of a sudden now I'm blues.
Neil Young
I used to walk like a giant on the land. Now I feel like a leaf floating in a stream
Neil Young
The youth of this country are not behind what is going on. We all know that. If you looked at a [political] map of the United States 25 and under, it's all-revealing. It's a unified map.
Neil Young
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.
Neil Young
I always try to get behind the guy steering the ship. That's the kind of guy I am.
Neil Young
Every wave is new until it breaks.
