More quotes by Van Morrison
Let go into the mystery Let yourself go You've got to open up your heart That's all I know Trust what I say and do what you're told Baby, and all your dirt will turn Into gold.
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
I always record far more than I can use. There's probably twice as much recorded as comes out.
Van Morrison
You can call it nostalgia, I don't mind Standing on that windswept hillside Listening to the church bells chime Listen to the church bells chime In that magic time.
Van Morrison
Large audiences did not suit my low-key approach.
Van Morrison
And I want to rock your gypsy soul Just like way back in the days of old And magnificently we will fold into the mystic
Van Morrison
I don't like to wonder about it-I just like to do it. That's what I mean about the image stuff and all that. There's far too much emphasis being placed on that kind of stuff... the whole emphasis on what does it mean? Everybody has their own particular vision.
Van Morrison
Enlightenment, don't know what it is. It's up to you, the way you think.
Van Morrison
You learn to read the audiences after a while, and there are all different kinds of gigs.
Van Morrison
I was just getting tired of the image bullshit...that man of mystery trip and what have you. What's that all about?
Van Morrison
I deliberately try not to cater for the commercial market, so I can't see myself in competition, you know, with second or third generation rock stars.
Van Morrison
It was like I had evolved to a certain stage where I was stuck in this songwriter bag as an image. But basically at heart, I'm a rocker. And I still am. But I was caught up in the singer/songwriter bag and I wasn't really enjoying it.
Van Morrison
There is no black-and-white situation. It's all part of life. Highs, lows, middles.
Van Morrison
I'm a dweller of the threshold and I'm waiting at the door, and I'm standing in the darkness, I don't want to wait no more.
Van Morrison
It will make you feel good, and it will make you feel whole, when the spirit moves you and it fills you through and through.
Van Morrison
I'm talking about noise rock. I don't think that noise rock element belongs in jazz. It's not for me anyway it just doesn't fit.
Van Morrison
A fantabulous night to make romance.
Van Morrison
Oh won't you stay Stay a while with your own ones Don't ever stray Stray so far from your own ones 'Cause the world is so cold Don't care nothing for your soul That you share with your own ones.
Van Morrison
I educated myself. To me, school was boring.
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
