More quotes by Nick Cave
We are still struggling with people who don't feel comfortable going into museums. As a visual artist I ask how artists can be part of enacting a change.
Nick Cave
I'm a big fan of teatowels and am always on the lookout for a good one.
Nick Cave
Writing screenplays makes me a better musician because it clears my head. After writing a movie, I go running back to music as fast as I can.
Nick Cave
Stars have their moments then they die.
Nick Cave
I have to be able to pull you in. How can I diversify my audiences? What role do I have to play to be part of that shift? I have to take that seriously.
Nick Cave

Nick Cave
No fish can swim until the King is born, until the King is born in Tupelo.
Nick Cave
My records are basically a litany of complaints against the world, and I'm quite like that in real life as well.
Nick Cave

Nick Cave
Sometimes the song isn't strong enough to contain the fiction, because memories are fictions.
Nick Cave
I don't believe in an interventionist God
Nick Cave
Film seems to be a medium designed for betrayal and violence.
Nick Cave
I’ve never intended to make religious records or records that preach some kind of point of view... If you’re involved with imagination and the creative process, it’s not such a difficult thing to believe in a god. But I’m not involved in any religions.
Nick Cave
I don't feel I'm thrown around by the winds of taste and fashion.
Nick Cave
A is for Answering all your prayers, N is for kNowing that your loverman's going to be the answer.
Nick Cave
Guns are part of the American psyche, aren't they? This is collateral damage for having a Wild West mentality. It's intrinsic to the American psyche. It's never going to change.
Nick Cave
The idea of songwriting is a transformative thing, and what I do with songwriting is take situations that are quite ordinary and transform them in some way. Apart from things like the murder ballads, the songs I write, at their core, are quite ordinary human concerns, but the process of writing about them transforms them into something else.
Nick Cave
I don't know, maybe Australian humour isn't supposed to be funny. It's as dry as the Sahara, and I think people miss that.
Nick Cave
When I start to write a song, I initially fall into patterns and creative habits that are familiar, and because they're familiar, they sound convincing. It's important for me to not pursue those ideas, because I've already done them, but to find ideas that are different and feel strange to write and disconcerting to write.
Nick Cave
Most people wait for the muse to turn up. That's terribly unreliable. I have to sit down and pursue the muse by attempting to work.
Nick Cave
