One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.

Critics are the men who have failed in literature and art.

Every work of art is an uncommitted crime.

The man who writes about himself and his own time is the only man who writes about all people and all time.

I think another thing is that we don't really want exclusivity. We accept that it is in the artist's interest to be on sale in every place where they sell music.

After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.

Art not only imitates nature, but also completes its deficiencies.

Play it fuckin' loud!

Art! Who comprehends her? With whom can one consult concerning this great goddess?

Rock and roll music, if you like it, if you feel it, you can't help but move to it. That's what happens to me. I can't help it.

The earth has music for those who listen.

Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen.

Music is mediator between spiritual and sensual life.

Singers come and go, but if you're a good actor, you can last a long time

We all know that art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth.

Comedy is the blues for people who can?t sing.

Music doesn't lie. If there is something to be changed in this world, then it can only happen through music.

Rhythm is something you either have or don't have, but when you have it, you have it all over.

Art is never finished, only abandoned.

And I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinking.

The music industry can make you feel like a prostitute.
