You cannot find peace by avoiding life, Leonard Picture Quote #1

I’m in my father’s car at age 9 or 10 crying to Leonard Cohen’s ‘Famous Blue Raincoat,’ thinking that you could write nearly a love letter to a man who betrayed you by having an affair with your wife. I was thinking how wonderful and pure music can be for explaining situations Picture Quote #1

My friends and I took songwriting very, very seriously. My hero was and still is Bob Dylan, but also people like Leonard Cohen and Joni Mitchell and that whole generation Picture Quote #1

Some people, like Leonard Cohen, write one album every 10 years, and labor over a song for five years at a time Picture Quote #1

Ray Leonard is more the family man, kind of quiet. He’s not as outgoing as Sugar Ray Leonard. Sugar Ray Leonard was very determined, very focused, very outgoing and very selfish, if you will. There are two different individuals there Picture Quote #1

I’ve spent three hours with Snoop Dogg, talking about how he loved [Peaky Blinders series]. And David Bowie loved it. The late Leonard Cohen was a fan. It struck a chord with various people that I didn’t think it would Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been curious. I keep a list of people I’d love to have lunch with, like the Pope or Leonard Cohen. I’ll read an article about someone I’ve never met and think, ‘I should ask him to lunch!’ Picture Quote #1

I am excited to share my archive pictures and footage. I’ll also share announcements about current events and success stories from the Sugar Ray Leonard Foundation to help fight diabetes and child obesity Picture Quote #1

Leonard Cohen and Nick Cave know best. Although I wear a lot of jeans, I’ve been told that Nick Cave doesn’t own a pair and wouldn’t be caught dead in denim Picture Quote #1

I was a latecomer to romance, although I did read gothics. My father used to work for the ‘Fort Worth Star-Telegram,’ and their book reviewer, author Leonard Sanders, would pass on the gothics for my dad to give to me since Leonard didn’t review gothics. I gobbled up books by Mary Stewart, Madeleine Brent, Victoria Holt and Phyllis Whitney Picture Quote #1

As a kid, I was listening to Aretha Franklin, Etta James and hip-hop as well as music my parents were listening to, like Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen Picture Quote #1

I would love to work with Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits, B.B. King. I’d love to do something with Arctic Monkeys, Miles Kane, and The Last Shadow Puppets. If I got a call from Juliette Lewis or PJ Harvey, or Chrissie Hynde, that’d be a thrill Picture Quote #1

Leonard Cohen has a way with words and with humor that remind me to lighten up, which I appreciate very much Picture Quote #1

When you translate the American writers who are best with dialogue into German - someone like Elmore Leonard, or Tom Wolfe, who’s also quite good with dialogue. It’s very hard to translate them well Picture Quote #1

My maternal granddad, Leonard, was full of amazing stories. He was an orphan, with 11 or 12 brothers and sisters, and he used to tell us about growing up near the Irrawaddy river and how one brother was eaten by a crocodile Picture Quote #1

When I was growing up, I fetishised New York City. It was the land of Lou Reed and the Velvet Underground, it was where Leonard Cohen wrote ‘Chelsea Hotel’, it was CBGBs and all the punk rock clubs. Artists and musicians lived there, and it was cheap and dangerous Picture Quote #1

Each of us, Leonard Read said, must become candles of liberty in the darkness of collectivist ideas. The brighter we each shine through our understanding and ability to articulate the meaning of freedom, the more we will be beacons that can attract others Picture Quote #1

For pleasure, I’ll read military sf, or Elmore Leonard capers, anything that’s fast and fun. Otherwise, I mostly pick at books, without any clear focus Picture Quote #1

As a bit of loner, prone to melancholy, with a questionable sexuality, I found great solace in the words of-Dylan, Joni, John Prine and Leonard Cohen. The darker the better Picture Quote #1

Leonard Chess passed, and that was the end of the Chess label for that time Picture Quote #1

The likes of Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Tommy Hearns were true champions. There were some incredible fights between us, and I was happy to give them all an opportunity to fight me Picture Quote #1
