More quotes by St. Vincent
Charity is the cement that unites communities to God and individuals to each other so that he who contributes to the union of hearts in a community binds it indissolubly to God.
St. Vincent
Well, I've been recording myself on a computer since I was about 13 or 14. So it's completely entwined with my creative process. Essentially, it allows you to make music that's better and smarter than you are, by using your ears to lead the way.
St. Vincent
Whirlyball is only the most awesome sport on the planet! It's like bumper cars plus lacrosse meets basketball.
St. Vincent
One of my favourite things about country music is that, at least until recently, you could always count on a solid story, a punchline and a pun. I think it has that in common with hip hop, where they're not afraid of wordplay and I really appreciate that.
St. Vincent
I've been watching a lot of Joan Didion interviews on YouTube. I love her. My drummer has gotten me into looking at Terence McKenna interviews.
St. Vincent
I've been so entwined with technology since I was about 15, recording myself and multitracking and producing things on my own.
St. Vincent
I guess trying to throw my body into the guitar is so natural for me that I don't even know how to explain it. I can't imagine life without it.
St. Vincent
Let us love God my brothers, let us love God. But let it be with the strength of our arms and the sweat of our brow.
St. Vincent
It is absolutely necessary, both for our advancement and the salvation of others, to follow always and in all things the beautiful light of faith
St. Vincent
I remember looking at the sky and thinking that the universe is so big and it's all chaos. I call it 'the dark fear.' At any moment, the dark fear could come in.
St. Vincent
I started playing guitar when I was 12 and probably from that age knew that I wanted to make music and make my own music. Playing with other bands like the Polyphonic Spree and Sufjan Stevens was more like an apprenticeship for me than anything.
St. Vincent
I've always been pretty ravenous about pop culture, highbrow and lowbrow.
St. Vincent
I only listen to my own music when I'm playing an hour-and-half set each night. I don't put it on recreationally.
St. Vincent
We ought to deal kindly with all, and to manifest those qualities which spring naturally from a heart tender and full of Christian charity such as affability, love and humility. These virtues serve wonderfully to gain the hearts of men, and to encourage them to embrace things that are more repugnant to nature.
St. Vincent
I think in some ways, it can do a listener a disservice to explain a song. I think I'd rather leave a little room for people to put themselves in it.
St. Vincent
I'm unqualified to do anything other than music.
St. Vincent
No matter what others say or do, even if the wicked succeed, do not be troubled: commit everything to God and put your trust in him.
St. Vincent
The Lilith Fair thing was Bummer Town - hey, hop aboard the marginalizing train. I guess you had people come out of that and have careers, but I think there was a pretty intense backlash, too.
St. Vincent
My dad used to love Steely Dan, the Stones, Jethro Tull and all that. There was always Steely Dan going in my dad's car, but I remember The Royal Scam in particular because it has 'Kid Charlemagne' on it.
St. Vincent
Fervor is a fire that makes things boil and grow hot, just as fire causes water to boil. It is, properly speaking, charity on fire, and that is what you should have because a Daughter without Charity is like a body without a soul.
St. Vincent
