More quotes by Steve Earle
My politics were really radical when I was younger, and then I moderated like everyone else does when they start having kids.
Steve Earle
At home, I'm lucky if I can write three or four hours before the phone starts ringing and the kids want to go to soccer.
Steve Earle
I had everything I need to get me killed.
Steve Earle
Maybe I'm not as big a star as Bruce Springsteen because I'm not as good. I don't know. It doesn't matter. I still have an audience of a certain size. I think it's one of the things I'm luckiest.
Steve Earle
I'll never believe that Americans have racticed in our history anything close to the purest form of democracy of the world. Because there are lots of democracies around the world that function better than ours does. It's always been that way. There's some truth to the idea that it's rigged, but there is a way that it's supposed to work that.
Steve Earle
I don't spend a lot of time feeling sorry for myself, trying to compare how many records I've sold or how much money I've made.
Steve Earle
Becoming interested in poetics got me interested in theater. Theater is supposed to be poetry, you know, before it's anything else. It just doesn't fly if it isn't musical.
Steve Earle
Every day on Earth is another chance to get it right.
Steve Earle
I still write more songs about girls than anything else.
Steve Earle
By the time I wrote those first three songs for his new CD ... I wanted to push the poetics as hard as I could push them, and not decide the songs were finished until I committed them to whatever the recording format was. I went through drafts right up until I recorded every single one of them.
Steve Earle
Bob Dylan emerged from nowhere, like an alien. And that was just the start.
Steve Earle
There's a long tradition of people from the South living in New York City.
Steve Earle
I've never known of Wal-Mart to be a good neighbor in any town it's ever moved into.
Steve Earle
I love theater. I go all the time. It's one of the reasons I moved to New York. But I understand that I have limited range as an actor. I can only play people who talk like me.
Steve Earle
I'm not a Democrat I'm something well to the left of a Democrat, but I'm just realistic about the system.
Steve Earle
I don't really think in terms of obstacles. My biggest obstacle is always myself.
Steve Earle
I don't think I'm a political songwriter as much as I am just a political person. I think it's in my fabric.
Steve Earle
The stupidest thing that a writer can do is write a memoir I think, unless it's right before you die -- maybe.
Steve Earle
I just had a child on purpose at age 56, I'm pretty f---ing optimistic.
Steve Earle
We're Americans. I don't consider us to be evil, I just don't think we know any better. We're a really young culture. We're hillbillies, and the rest of the world sees us that way. I travel all over the world, and probably the only worse rednecks than us are the Australians. And they're an even younger country.
Steve Earle
