The way I go about writing records is that I make a calendar date to start the new record, so I have nothing. I don't have a bunch of notes that I bring into the office, I start with nothing at all.

More quotes by Nick Cave
Sometimes the song isn't strong enough to contain the fiction, because memories are fictions.
Nick Cave
Texting is apocalyptic on some level. It's a reduction of things.
Nick Cave
Songwriting, I have to take myself away from everybody to do. It's an unsightly act.
Nick Cave
I don't particularly believe all love is doomed. But I guess, one is usually kinda suffering from some aborted love affair or association, rather than being at the peak of one. I think it's fairly obvious that a lot more suffering goes on in the name of love than the little happiness you can squeeze out of it.
Nick Cave
The work ethic at art school is completely different than the work ethic amongst people who get into music. People who paint, it's an honorable thing to spend all day and all night in front of your canvas - that is the romantic vision of the painter.
Nick Cave
I don't feel I'm thrown around by the winds of taste and fashion.
Nick Cave
I became a script writer with absolutely no idea of how to write a script whatsoever. I still feel a bit of an outsider in that regard. If I can maintain that approach to screenwriting, it can continue to be enjoyable.
Nick Cave
Do I personally believe in a personal God? No.
Nick Cave
No wonder sorrow doesn’t smile much. No wonder sadness is so sad.
Nick Cave
Said 2,000 years of Christian history, baby And you ain't learned to love me yet?
Nick Cave
Oh, a passing, skeptical kind of interest. I'm a hammer-and-nails kind of guy.
Nick Cave
No fish can swim until the King is born, until the King is born in Tupelo.
Nick Cave
I want to write songs that are so sad, the kind of sad where you take someone's little finger and break it in three places.
Nick Cave
But if you're gonna dine with them cannibals Sooner or later, darling, you're gonna get eaten . . .
Nick Cave
I just found this world a hard place to be good in,’ says Bunny, then he closes his eyes and, with an expiration of breath, goes still.
Nick Cave
What I want people to recognize is that we have to keep working together and take charge because we all have the same story.
Nick Cave
I've always hated narrative songs. I hate those songs where, basically, it's an unfolding of a story.
Nick Cave
If you're Australian, you feel it in your bones because you're at odds with everybody else, except other Australians, in the sense that people always seem to be behaving strangely. People always seem to be behaving the wrong way, in a different way. You say things and there are silences.
Nick Cave
Most screen violence is tedious.
Nick Cave
I'm an Australian, and when I grew up much of my influences were American - blues music and country music, all that sort of thing.
Nick Cave
