Text Quotes
Back 20 years ago, I was recording with Bruce Springsteen, and his producer called me and said I had to be in the studio the next day to finish the sessions, and I couldn’t. I had to be in court, in California. All this took like 10 years out of my life  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) Basically, I was pretty ostracized in my hometown. Me and a few other guys were the town freaks- and there were many occasions when we were dodging getting beaten up ourselves  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) My only general rule was to steer away from things I played with the band over the past couple of tours. I was interested in re-shaping the Rising material for live shows, so people could hear the bare bones of that  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) When I first started in rock, I had a big guy’s audience for my early records. I had a very straight image, particularly through the mid 80s  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) Remember all the movies, terry, we’d go see? Trying to learn how to walk like the heroes we thought we had to be and after all this time to find we’re just like all the rest Stranded in the park and forced to confess To hiding on the Backstreets  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) Just sitting back trying to recapture a little of the glory of... Well, the time slips away and leaves you with nothing, mister, but boring stories of Glory days - yeah, they’ll pass you by, Glory days - in the wink of a young girl’s eye  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) I will always desire to play with Bruce Springsteen. He’s the most inspirational, most dedicated, most committed and most focused artist I’ve ever seen. I like to be around people like that  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) I believe the war on poverty is a more American idea than the war on the war on poverty. I believe that most people feel like that. And I believe that it ain’t over till it’s over  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) After ‘Born to Run,’ I had a reaction to my good fortune. With success, it felt like a lot of people who’d come before me lost some essential part of themselves. My greatest fear was that success was going to change or diminish that part of myself  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) All the music I loved as a child, people thought it was junk. People were unaware of the subtext in so many of those records, but if you were a kid, you were just completely tuned in, even though you didn’t always say - you wouldn’t dare say it was beautiful  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) I don’t like to write rhetorically or get on a soapbox. I try to make the stuff multi-layered, so that it always has a life outside its social context. I don’t believe that you can tell people anything; you can only draw them in  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) I had a ten-piece band when I was 21 years old, the Bruce Springsteen Band. This is just a slightly expanded version of a band I had before I ever signed a record contract. We had singers and horns  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) I had tried to go to college, and I didn’t really fit in. I went to a real narrow-minded school where people gave me a lot of trouble, and I was hounded off the campus - I just looked different and acted different, so I left school  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) I played in front of every conceivable audience you could face: an all-black audience, all-white, firemen’s fairs, policemen’s balls, in front of supermarkets, bar mitzvahs, weddings, drive-in theaters. I’d seen it all before I ever walked into a recording studio  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) Steve Van Zandt, the poor guy, doesn’t get to play enough as it is with me hogging a lot of the solos. Steve has always been a fabulous guitarist. Back from the day when we were both teenagers together, he led his band and played lead and was always a hot guitar player  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) The E Street band casts a pretty wide net. Our influences go all the way back to the early primitive garage music, and also, we’ve had everything in the band from jazz players to Kansas City trumpet players to Nils Lofgren, one of the great rock guitarists in the world  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) The name ‘Boss’ started with people that worked for me... It was not meant like Boss, capital B, it was meant like ‘Boss, where’s my dough this week?’ And it was sort of just a term among friends. I never really liked it  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) When I was very, very young, I decided that I was gonna catalogue my times because that’s what other people who I admired did. That’s what Bob Dylan did, that’s what Frank Sinatra did, Hank Williams did, in very different ways  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) I don’t think people expect Bruce Springsteen to come out in a pink satin jacket, but Rod Stewart, they do. And I like doing it; I don’t wear it just because I think I have to. I’m a very flamboyant person  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) Bruce Springsteen’s a rock star. Elton John is a rock star. I’m a folk musician. Honestly, I think that’s true  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) For the ones who had a notion, a notion deep inside That it ain’t no sin to be glad you’re alive  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) For the ones who had a notion, A notion deep inside, That it ain’t no sin to be glad you’re alive I wanna find one face that ain’t looking through me I wanna find one place, I wanna spit in the face of these badlands  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) Now young faces grow sad and old and hearts of fire grow cold We swore blood brothers against the wind I’m ready to grow young again  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) You can’t start a fire Worrying ‘bout your little world falling apart This gun’s for hire Even if we’re just dancing in the dark  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) The Clash were a major influence on my own music. They were the best rock ‘n’ roll band. Thanks, Joe  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) It’s great having Bruce Springsteen on my show. We have so much in common! We’re both from New Jersey, just from different neighborhoods. Sort of like how Martin Luther King and Margaret Mitchell both came from Atlanta. But from different neighborhoods  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) Nobody went out to pasture, and a lot of people are doing their best work. Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, and Sting are at the top of their game. I mean, Tony Bennett is the coolest guy I ever met! We have to figure out how to break out of this age ghetto  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) We are the people who won the Second World War and saved the world. We went to the moon. We gave the world the cell phone and Bruce Springsteen. There’s no telling what we can accomplish  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) To her Cheshire smile, I’ll stand on file, she’s all I ever wanted. But you let your blue walls get in the way of these facts  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes) A great rock band searches for the same kind of combustible force that fueled the expansion of the universe after the big bang. You want the earth to shake and spit fire. You want the sky to split apart and for God to pour out  (Bruce Springsteen Quotes)
