And, in the end The love you take is equal to the love you make.

I don't know anything about music. In my line you don't have to.

Each song is a child I nourish and give my love to. But even if you have never written a song, your life is a song. How can it not be?

Music melts all the separate parts of our bodies together.

Art is permitted to survive only if it renounces the right to be different, and integrates itself into the omnipotent realm of the profane.

The spoken form is in fact a very restrained representation of what is possible in the musical language.

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

I accept chaos, I'm not sure whether it accepts me.

Play it fuckin' loud!

Every actor in his heart believes everything bad that's printed about him.

Art is never finished, only abandoned.

Artistic temperament is a disease that afflicts amateurs.

We're not trying to change the world; just music.

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

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

I love rock-n-roll. I think it's an exciting art form. It's revolutionary. Still revolutionary and it changed people. It changed their hearts. But yeah, even rock-n-roll has a lot of rubbish, really bad music.

You use a glass mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul.

To play without passion is inexcusable!

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

Poets and heroes are of the same race, the latter do what the former conceive.

The true art of memory is the art of attention.
