We had the Vietnam War in the '60s, and there was a draft. The students didn't believe in it, and it unified them.

I'm not a preacher, and I'm certainly not a good example, but I have my own feelings about God. I'm kind of a nature guy. My cathedral is forests, or the prairies, or the beach.
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
Respect Mother Earth and her giving ways or trade away our children's days.
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
It's the way I like to work for these kinds of songs [like Peace Trail]. It was the right time of the month everything was looking good.
Neil Young
The Arabic states have to be integrated into the Iraqi reconstruction. We need the help of the Arabic community, which understands its culture. Americans arrive, invade, occupy.
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
The '60s was one of the first times the power of music was used by a generation to bind them together.
Neil Young
Ten silver saxes, a bass with a bow The drummer relaxes and waits between shows For his cinnamon girl.
Neil Young
Ain't singing for Pepsi, ain't singing for Coke, I don't sing for nobody, makes me look like a joke.
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
Starts out slow and then fizzles out altogether.
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
A lot of people that buy vinyl today don’t realise that they’re listening to CD masters on vinyl and that’s because the record companies have figured out that people want vinyl, And they're only making CD masters in digital, so all the new products that come out on vinyl are actually CDs on vinyl, which is really nothing but a fashion statement.
Neil Young
Now I'm livin' out here on the beach, but those seagulls are still out of reach.
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
I get into each thing I do, to the point where nothing else matters. I guess I'm an extremist.
Neil Young
Our educational system basically strives for normal-which is too bad. Sometimes the exceptional is classified as abnormal and pushed aside.
Neil Young
For whatever you're doing, for your creative juices, your geography's got a hell of a lot to do with it. You really have to be in a good place, and then you have to be either on your way there or on your way from there.
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
