More quotes by Van Morrison
If you're putting somebody down, you're doing it because you're just seeing a part of yourself that you don't like. That's all that is.
Van Morrison
When you perform live, it's a different trip - it's different energy. I just felt a conflict between both of the trips. I was trying to evaluate what it meant for me to be a singer/songwriter and what that whole thing all meant.
Van Morrison
My experiences with dope were not good for me. I had to go another route. Because in my experience, dope didn't give me those insights.
Van Morrison
You come into my dreams from a whisper to a scream.
Van Morrison
I went back to Belfast and started a club, the Maritime. No one had thought about doing a blues club, so I was the first.
Van Morrison
Some thoughts went through my head about recording some stuff that had influenced me earlier in my career like blues and early rock. But it didn't seem to really make sense at that point - it might have been taken the wrong way. A lot of people already had been into that trip.
Van Morrison
I educated myself. To me, school was boring.
Van Morrison
The idea [of A Period of Transition album] was to get a break from everything for a while because I've been doing it for so long. I started doing it when I was 12.
Van Morrison
You have to understand a bit about the poetry of the blues to know where the references are coming from.
Van Morrison
I forgot that love existed, troubled in my mind. Heartache after heartache, worried all the time. I forgot that love existed Then I saw the light Everyone around me make everything alright.
Van Morrison
I like to see people reaching back for the roots and for the reason why. Not intellectually, but just for the gut feeling of what it's all about.
Van Morrison
Into the Music was about the first album where I felt, 'I'm starting here'...the Wavelength thing, I didn't really feel that was me.
Van Morrison
I was like one of those newspapers, those periodicals. There's all different kinds of alcoholics. There's the everyday kind: that's the consistent one. That's what people think an alcoholic is-but an alcoholic is basically just someone who's allergic to alcohol. That's all it means. It's just an allergy.
Van Morrison
What I don't like is taking it to extremes and making all these intellectualizations about what basically is simple music. It's simple stream-of-consciousness stuff in my songs. What I'm trying to get across is misinterpreted.
Van Morrison
My thinking musically has always been more advanced - it is difficult to get it down onto paper sometimes, even now.
Van Morrison
I thought of collaborating with other people which still might happen at this point. It might not. I was just trying to break the cycle because I had gotten to a point where I was definitely sure that I was on the wrong track after about 16 years.
Van Morrison
There's always got to be a struggle. What else is there? That's what life is made of. I don't know anything else. If there is, tell me about it.
Van Morrison
Men come, men go, all things remain in God.
Van Morrison
A lot of things come together to make up a song. It's just images.
Van Morrison
Well, it's a marvelous night for a Moondance With the stars up above in your eyes... And I'm trying to please to the calling Of your heart-strings that they play soft and low And all the night's magic seems to whisper and hush And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush... One more Moondance with you in the moonlight On a magic night
Van Morrison
