More quotes by Van Morrison
My bag is approaching something and taking it to another place. Like words-you take a word and by the time you've finished with it, you milk it and you go through the emotion of what it is, what it means there and then.
Van Morrison
You know what they're writing about Baby you know what they're writing about It's a thing called love down through the ages Makes you wanna cry sometimes Makes you feel like you wanna lay down and die sometimes Makes you high sometimes But when you really get in it lifts you right up.
Van Morrison
Laying underneath the stars Can be so much fun Especially when you're feeling good When you're with the one you love.
Van Morrison
No guru, no method, no teacher, just you and I and nature, and the father in the garden.
Van Morrison

Van Morrison
A famous person to themselves, they don't get up in the morning and think, I'm famous. I'm not famous to me. Famous is a perception.
Van Morrison

Van Morrison
I do see value in music criticism. Most of the criticism I have received over the years has been very good.
Van Morrison
What I like is natural music. It's like I was born with a gift to do something naturally, which I have no choice but to followup on.
Van Morrison
I never bought the commercial thing, at any stage of the game.
Van Morrison
I just need somewhere to dump all my negativity.
Van Morrison
In the gentle evening freeze, by the whispering shady trees I will find sanctuary in the Lord.
Van Morrison
I think we're going a bit too fast at the minute. The rate we're going is like we're going over the edge of the hill.
Van Morrison
Rock is gut level and it just gets to people. I think there's far too much emphasis on intellectualization, especially in rock 'n' roll which is a primitive form.
Van Morrison
Sometimes, when the spirit moves me I can do many wondrous things I wanna know when the spirit moves you Did ye get healed?
Van Morrison
I'm very lucky, I'm happy with life because my experiences led me to do what I had to do. I don't have any regrets whatsoever.
Van Morrison
